What is 240kpa in terms of tire pressure?
1 Answers
240kpa is equivalent to 2.4bar tire pressure. According to the regulations and requirements of the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5bar. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of tires, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Causes excessive stretching deformation of tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, the tire is more prone to punctures, and impacts can lead to internal cracks and blowouts, resulting in tire bursts.
