Can a Bicycle Pump Inflate Car Tires?
1 Answers
Yes, household cars generally use low-pressure tires with tire pressure ranging from 2.0-3.0 bar, while bicycle tire pressure is typically 3.5-4.5 bar. Therefore, a regular bicycle pump can fully inflate car tires. Normally, using a large pump for 15-20 strokes can increase the pressure of a 195/65 car tire by 0.1 bar. If using a high-pressure pump, the efficiency is higher and requires less effort. Related information: 1. Pump working principle: The air pump draws air into its storage chamber through pulling motion, then injects or supplements air into various tires and some balls through pushing motion. 2. Pump material: Made primarily of stainless steel due to its strong oxidation resistance, long service life, rust-proof properties, corrosion resistance, deformation resistance, lead-free safety, high hardness, wear resistance, and durability. Widely used for various balls, bicycles, motorcycles, etc.
