When and what type of wearer should I use for tire fitting?

To repair automobile tires, consumables for tire fitting are needed, which are used by both ordinary motorists and professional service stations.

The most common problem of all chamber and tubeless tires is a puncture - a minor damage that breaks integrity and tightness. More serious defects are called breaks or cuts. They are characterized not only by the breach of the tightness, but also by the breakage of the cord threads.

But the question is how to seal a camera is not the only thing that car repair shop employees solve. They also have to deal with the imbalance of the wheel, associated with a change in the geometry of the rim.

Kinds

Automobile wheels, however trite it may sound, conditionally consist of two parts - a metal rim and rubber chamber. In this regard, all consumables are classified into two groups:

• Materials of vulcanization - are applied with the purpose of elimination of punctures, ruptures and other damages of tires (rubber elements of a wheel);
• Balancing weights - used to compensate for deformation of the rim.

The largest distribution on the market was the preparation for vulcanization. The canopies are mounted on a special stand that an ordinary driver can not afford. Therefore, such a wearer for tire fitting is more in demand in professional repair centers.

Components

Elimination of damages associated with violation of the integrity of the chamber and the loss of tightness, is carried out using a certain consumable for tire fitting. In accordance with this, they can be divided into three groups:

1. Crude rubber - used to eliminate small punctures.
2. Payouts - are used to "treat" breakdowns, cuts in places where the cord was torn off.
3. Express materials are components of the urgent restoration of the integrity of the wheel.

Raw rubber is necessary for vulcanization - removal of punctures by a hot method. It is a plastic mass of black color, which when heated to a temperature of 140-150 degrees melts and adheres to the chamber.

Blanks for punctures

Elimination of breakdowns is the restoration of the tightness of the chamber and cord cords. For this purpose, a patch is used for the tire fitting, which is a reinforced piece of rubber. It is installed from the inside of the tire. One side of this "plaster" is smeared with glue, with which cold vulcanization becomes possible.

Distribution and patch without a reinforcing cord. They are used to restore the tightness, rigidity of the frame with small damages. All patches without reinforcing cord are divided into universal and chamber, which can stretch.

Very often, together with the plaster, use raw rubber, which overlays the patch, increasing its adhesion to the surface. Also, the "raw" consumable for tire fitting is needed during the cleaning of the surface and filling the funnels.

Express repair

Blanks for quick repairs are only a temporary measure, for example, when you are on the road or you can not go to the car repair shop. The main component of urgent repairs is the "leg".

It is a small rubber cylinder with a pointed edge or a metal tip. It is used to restore the treadmill, since in other parts the tire is much thicker, and it is impossible to secure it securely. A type of leg is the fungus. It is a combination of a rubber cylinder and a patch. All presented consumables for tire fitting are necessary to eliminate damages up to 13 mm in diameter.

Balancing weights

Use special awnings to evenly distribute the mass of the wheel, which allows you to reduce its fluctuations in the vertical plane during rotation.

There are two main types of balancing cargo:

1. Self-adhesive - adhere to the rim with double-sided adhesive tape or glue.
2. Printed - have a special bracket, with the help of which and fixed on the disk.

Before installing such an element on a special machine, the required weight of the load is determined. Balancing canopies without the use of professional stands can be put, but it is impossible to choose the mass and determine the exact location of their installation.
