The Installation Method and Notices of Heavy Truck Tyres

 1. The installation method of heavy truck tires

 

Although the assembly process of heavy truck tyre is reversible, there are many details that need to be noted, such as checking the matching of the rim, flange and retainer. The specific assembly steps are as follows:

 

(1) Sprinkle some talcum powder on the inner tube of a heavy truck tyre, put the inner tube and rim lining belt into the outer tire, and inflate the inner tube and screw up the valve.

 

(2) Place the heavy truck tyre pad on the rim slantwise, and put the inflating valve into the notch (be careful not to skew the inflating valve), then raise the tyre from one side of the inflating valve and embed it into the rim.

 

(3) Mount the rimmed collar in turn. Place it in the wheelset notch opposite to the opening of the clamping ring, and press in one end of the ring first and then press in the other end.

 

(4) Confirm that the edge of the clamping ring is under the tyre bead of the heavy truck tyres. Charge the tyre pressure to 49 kPa first to verify that the bead is in the clamping ring all around and then charge the tyre pressure to the rated value.

 

2. Notices of assembling and disassembling heavy truck tyres

 

(1) It is prohibited to hit rims, retainers, rim collars or tyres when or after heavy truck tires are inflated.

 

(2) In order to maintain the dynamic balance of the wheels, the old tyre should be installed in the original position before the disassembly (that is, the marks of the tyre and the rim should coincide with each other).

 

(3) During assembly and disassembly, the state of each wheel part should be checked at least once a year: the rim collar, clamping ring and rim shall be free of cracks, dents, rust and dirt; the inner surface of the clamping ring shall be reliably embedded in the groove of the wheelset.

 

No matter what kind of tyre it is, you need to pay attention to the maintenance at ordinary times, and timely adjust to maintain normal tire pressure. Operate carefully and keep safe when checking or replacing tyres.

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

  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
