Can a Tire with a Nail Still Be Used?
1 Answers
Tire puncture caused by a nail depends on the location of the puncture. If the nail is in the tread, the tire can still be used after repair; if the nail is in the sidewall, the tire should not be used anymore. More information about tires is as follows: 1. The function of a tire is to support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. 2. Tires transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheel and the road surface to improve the car's power, braking, and passability. 3. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery that roll on the ground. They are usually mounted on metal rims, supporting the body, cushioning external impacts, achieving contact with the road surface, and ensuring the vehicle's driving performance.
