Tire Temperature Should Be Controlled When Driving

When the car is running, the temperature inside the tire increases due to deformation and friction. When it reaches above 100°C, the strength of the tire body is greatly reduced, which can easily cause damage such as delamination and explosion. Tire temperature is not easy to measure and is usually determined based on the degree of increase in tire pressure. The higher the tire pressure, the higher the tire temperature. When the ambient temperature is above 30°C, the increase in tire pressure should not exceed 20% of the inflation standard. Due to poor heat dissipation conditions, the tire temperature can easily exceed 100°C. When driving in high temperatures in summer, if the tire temperature is too high, the vehicle should be parked in a cool place to cool down naturally. It is strictly prohibited to use methods such as pouring cold water or releasing air to cool down and reduce pressure. Because pouring cold water will cause the tire to cool down suddenly, each part will shrink unevenly, which will easily cause cracks and affect the service life. When the weather is hot, if you encounter a section that requires wading through water, you should stop to cool down first to avoid adverse effects on the tires. If the air is deflated on the way, although the tire pressure drops, the tire temperature does not drop, but the original balance condition is destroyed. When driving continues, the deformation increases due to the reduced air pressure, which will cause the tire temperature to continue to rise on the original basis. High until the tire's heat generation and heat dissipation are rebalanced. At this time, the tire temperature is much higher than before, causing serious damage to the tire.
