Introduction of common tire repair methods

According to the degree of tire damage, the repair methods of bad tires can be roughly divided into three types: cold repair (internal repair or paste repair), hot repair (commonly known as fire repair) and rubber strip method. Here we introduce to you, what is the difference between each tire repair method.
The so-called cold repair is to remove the injured tire from the rim, after finding the wound, clean the foreign body at the wound, and paste the special tire repair rubber from the inner layer of the tire to complete the leak repair. In fact, this method is similar to the tire repair method of bicycles, except that it requires a special tire picker and tire repair rubber to complete. The advantage is that it can repair larger wounds, but the disadvantage is that it is not durable enough. After a period of water immersion or high-speed driving of the vehicle, the repaired area is likely to leak again.
Hot repair (commonly known as fire repair) is a complete tire repair measures. Hot repair also needs to remove the tire from the rim, and then attach the special green film to the wound. Then bake the wound with a baking machine until the green film and the tire are attached. The advantage of hot repair is that it is very durable, and there is basically no need to worry about repeated air leakage at the wound. However, it also has shortcomings, that is, the technical requirements during construction are higher, because once the fire control during baking is not good, the tire may be scorched, and serious deformation will occur, so that the damage to the tire will be Big.
Rubber strip method For the majority of car owners and friends, when your car is driving and the tires are stuck or leaking on the road, the simple and practical method is to use the rubber strip method. The rubber strip tire repair requires low equipment (a set of tire repair tools plus a small tire air pump), and the professional technical requirements of the owner are not high (as long as you dare to try it yourself), so it is very suitable for ordinary owners. Below we will teach you how to use the rubber strip method to repair the tire.
device:
A set of tools to make vacuum tires (the price is generally 20~30 yuan). There are two tools with handles in this set of tools, an awl that can be inserted into the rubber strip, and a cone that is a round file.
There is also a pouch with adhesive tape. Buy another small tire inflation pump (the price is generally between 60~200 yuan). step:
(1) First find the wound where the tire is punctured, and pull out the puncture that punctured the tire.
(2) Clean up the debris near the wound. If the puncture point is very small, you need to first use the awl of a round file to expand it (the diameter of the hole and the size of the rubber strip can be similar).
(3) Use the awl with a rubber strip to insert the rubber strip into the broken part. Do not insert the rubber strip into the tire of the car, leaving about 1cm outside the tire
(4) Pull out the awl tire to make up. A rubber strip can be used in two sections, if the break is large, you can insert a few more. Then inflate the tire with an air pump.
The entire tire repair process takes only a few minutes, and there is no need to remove the tire from the rim. But when the break is on the side of the tire and it is relatively large, this method can only be used as an emergency. At the same time, remind the friends of the owner that after using the rubber strip method to repair the tire, they must drive the car to a professional tire store for testing.
