The nozzle used for inflating tires is called a tire valve. Additional information is as follows: Tire valve: The tire valve consists of three main parts: the valve body, the valve core, and the valve cap. It serves as a one-way valve (check valve) for inflating or deflating tires with gas or liquid, while maintaining and monitoring internal pressure. For tubed tires, it is installed on the inner tube, while for tubeless tires, it is mounted on the rim. Structurally, it can be divided into two types: rubber-metal valves and metal valves with rubber pads. The former is used for inner tubes of car tires, while the latter is mainly used for inner tubes of truck tires. The internal structure of tubeless tire valves is the same as that of ordinary valves.
