1 Answers
Air impact wrenches can be used for small car tire bolts, but it's advisable to use fewer impacts and finish tightening by hand to ensure more balanced force distribution on the bolts. Here are relevant details: 1. About air impact wrenches: Also known as pneumatic wrenches, they are tools for installing and removing bolts, typically used for larger bolts. Air impact wrenches offer fast bolt removal and require less effort. They are commonly used in automotive repair for removing car tire bolts. 2. Tire functions: Tires bear the weight of the car and its load, known as load-bearing capacity. They transmit driving, traction, acceleration, steering, and braking forces to the ground, including driving force, traction force, braking force, and steering force. This is referred to as meeting the dynamic performance requirements of the car, enabling its operation. Tires allow the car to drive smoothly, maintain stable handling, and ensure high-speed safety under various weather, road, and speed conditions, known as safety performance. They also cushion vibrations, reduce noise, and provide riding comfort, known as comfort performance.
