What is 2.4 tire pressure in psi?
1 Answers
Tire pressure of 2.4 is 240 psi. Car tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, and the level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the vehicle. Hazards of low tire pressure: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Causes the steering wheel to feel heavy and may lead to deviations, which are factors detrimental to driving safety; Increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing excessive rolling and abnormal heating of the tire; Reduces the functionality of the cord and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, excessive friction with the rim causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; Multiplies the friction between the tire and the ground, sharply increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may result in a tire blowout; Increases tire body deformation, making the tire side prone to cracks, while generating flexing movement, leading to excessive heating, promoting rubber aging, cord fatigue, and breakage, and also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating shoulder wear. Methods to address insufficient tire pressure: If no damage is visible, simply inflate to normal tire pressure and reset the tire pressure system; If a puncture is found upon inspection, promptly drive to a tire shop for repair and then reinflate; If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation without any puncture, it may be due to air leakage caused by rim deformation. It is recommended to check the rim and replace it if necessary.
