How Often Should Nitrogen in Tires Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Tire nitrogen pressure should generally be checked at least once a month, and replenished promptly when the pressure falls below the normal range. Below is an introduction to nitrogen in tires: The role of nitrogen in tires: Reduces the risk of tire blowouts. When a car is in motion, the friction between the tires and the ground causes a rapid rise in temperature, especially during high-speed driving. The rapid increase in gas temperature inside the tire leads to a sudden rise in pressure, which can result in a blowout. Reduces driving noise. Nitrogen is a diatomic gas with low chemical reactivity and very poor audio conductivity. Extends tire lifespan. With nitrogen, tire pressure remains more stable, and the volume changes of the gas inside the tire are minimized, significantly reducing irregular tire wear. Benefits of nitrogen in tires: Using nitrogen in tires helps maintain stable tire pressure, reducing the likelihood of blowouts and fuel consumption. It also effectively decreases tire noise, enhancing ride comfort and quietness. Additionally, it lowers the chance of irregular tire friction and slows down the aging of tire rubber.
