What should I do if the tire of a tanker without a spare tire is punctured?

Nov. 25, 2021

The tires of a tanker truck are equivalent to the shoes on our feet. A pair of suitable good shoes can make us fly fast, but if there is a problem with the shoes, it may be uncomfortable to walk, or it may fall or even sprain the foot. Tank truck tires are unavoidably punctured by sharp objects. Do you know how to deal with a tire burst? Here are some tips for tank truck manufacturers:

First aid type: shot to make up

The most common way to repair a tire is to insert a special rubber strip into the puncture part of the tire. The master of the tire repair shop usually refers to it as a gun-type tire repair. The biggest advantage of this method is that it is quick and convenient, it only takes a few minutes, and there is no need to pry the tire from the rim. The defect of the gun-type tire repair is that it is not durable enough, and it is difficult to cope with larger wounds. Usually it can only be used as a temporary remedy.

Blocking type: Paste and make up

Another way to repair a tire is sticky repair. The so-called sticky repair is to remove the injured tire from the rim, and after finding the wound, stick a special tire repair rubber from the inner layer of the tire to complete the leak. The advantage of this method is that larger wounds can be repaired, but the disadvantage is that it is not durable enough. After a period of water immersion and high-speed operation, air leakage will occur again in the repaired area.

Final style: Fire make up

The most thorough tire repair measures are often said fire repair. Fire repair also needs to pry off the tire, and then attach the special raw film to the wound, and then use a baking machine to bake the wound until the raw film is completely attached to the tire. The advantage of fire repair is that it is very durable, and there is basically no need to worry about repeated air leakage. However, it also has disadvantages, that is, the technical requirements during construction are relatively high, because once the fire control during baking is not good, it is very likely that the tires will be scorched, and severely deformed. In that case, the tires may be damaged. It's big.

Tank truck manufacturers pointed out that there are many ways to repair tires, but they are not universal. If the tire wall (that is, the side of the tire) has a wound larger than 1 cm, or the tire crown is pierced by steel bars and other objects, causing a big loophole, it is generally best to replace the tire with a new tire. Because such a tire is not only difficult to repair, the effect of repairing is also not reassuring, just let it retire.

As for doing it yourself, many automatic tire repair agents on the market have certain effects, but they also have strong limitations. For example, if the leaked tires have leaked out, it will be difficult to work. The biggest defect of this tyre repair agent is that it is very corrosive. Whether it is a steel ring or an alloy rim, there will be greater damage for a long time, and this damage directly leads to the failure of the steel ring and the tire to seal Strictly causes air leakage.
