What are the Repair Methods of Forklift Truck Tyres

 Forklift truck tyres repair includes the rubber strip repair method, patch internal repair method and mushroom nail repair method.

 

1. Rubber strip repair method

 

The adhesive tape is directly filled into the damaged hole on the forklift truck tyres, and then cured by heating to make up for the leakage. Because of its simple operation and extremely low cost, the most expensive repair price just cost dozens of dollars. However, this method is likely to heat the rubber strip due to melting and separation at high temperatures in summer. In addition to being affected by vibration, it will also have the problem of air leakage. This method is used for earlier tire repair, which is no longer recommended now.

 

2. Internal patch method

 

At present, the commonly used method is the internal patch method. At first, you should check the damaged location of the forklift truck tyres, then planish the damaged area, apply glue around the hole, and attach the special rubber patch to the damaged area and press it firmly. After that, smear a layer protective glue, then the tyres repair work has been completed. This method is basically the same as the tire repair method which is commonly used on bicycles. The disadvantage of this method is that the damaged parts are easily corroded by rainwater and other pollutants. Only the inside of the tire can be through this method. After the tire is repaired, dynamic balance calibration should be performed. But usually the effect is very good and the price does not exceed 100 yuan.

 

3. Mushroom nail repair method

 

This method is similar to the patch mentioned above. But the patch is replaced with mushroom-shaped rubber nails, and the patch is inserted into the broken hole to repair it. Relatively speaking, the price is higher than 100 yuan, and the size of the hole cannot be too large. This method have the best repair effect and is relatively safer.

What is the Difference between Radial Ply Tyres and Diagonal Tyres?

Image
Nylon Tyre VS Radial Tyre The so-called diagonal tire refers to the tyre whose cords are arranged diagonally, hence its name. The entire carcass is composed of multiple layers of diagonally crossed nylon cords. The tyre crown and sidewall belong to the same ply, which makes the tyre stress concentrated. The deformation of the sidewall is directly transmitted to the tread, leading to unstable ground contact area and poor ground grip. Moreover, the uneven stress on the tyre tread causes serious wear in the middle and short service life of the tyre. In addition, the diagonal tyre is composed of nylon cords with poor thermal endurance. After running for many times in the alternating environment of cold and hot, the nylon cord becomes fatigued, reducing the tensile force and causing a sudden tyre explosion, which poses a great safety hazard. A lot of tyres that seem to be in perfect condition suddenly explode, causing a huge impact on driving safety. Also, diagonal tyre is with high si

What's the Difference between Single Steer Tires and Double Steers Tires?

Image
  Single Steer Tires   Super single steer tyres  is unidirectional with all force. Its tread patterns are in the same direction with a good grip, so it is suitable for cars that often run at high speed. If there is no abnormal tire wear, you only need to switch back and forth on the same side. If one-sided tire wear occurs or the tire has run more than 10,000 kilometers, the tire needs to be switched from left to right.   The sidewall of super single steer tire  are marked with an arrow and a "Rotation" sign. The direction indicated by the arrow is the rolling direction of the tire. You can use this arrow to tell if the tire is reversed. If the front and rear tires are installed upside down, the tires will shake and wear easily when the vehicle is running.   When installing a single steer tire, the combination of tire and hub should also be considered. Install the tire on the wheel hub according to the specific position of the vehicle and the direction indicated by the arrow

So Much is Hidden in the Numbers on Truck Tyres

Image
  So Much is Hidden in the Numbers on Truck Tyres   Carefully observing the obvious position on the sidewall of heavy duty tyres , you would find a line of number + letter symbols similar to mathematical functions, such as 12.00 R20, 11.00 R20, 295/80 R22.5. And these numbers represent the basic information of the tyre. Take 12.00 R20 as an example, where 12.00 represents inch in British system, and 12 inch refers to tyre tread width. The larger the number, the wider the tire tread, hence the larger the grounding area, and the tire's grip will be improved to a certain extent.   The last two digits of 20 corresponds to the wheel hub, which is often called the diameter of the rim, in inches. Generally speaking, the larger the diameter of the hub, the greater its bearing strength. Many drivers who pull heavy loads tend to have larger diameter wheels with a certain thickness.   The letter R represents the type of tire. Most of the tires in the past did not have this letter. In the past
