What tools are needed to inflate tubeless tires?
1 Answers
Tubeless tires require the use of an air compressor. Below are the specific details about tubeless tires: Principle of Tubeless Tires: Tubeless tires do not have an inner tube. They rely on the principle of inflation and expansion, using the outer tire sealing pad and the outer edge structure of the rim to enclose the gas inside the tire. The outer tire also serves the function of an inner tube. Advantages of Tubeless Tires: Tubeless tires are much thicker than tube-type tires. The outer side of the tire bead has an additional rubber sealing layer specifically designed to seal gas. After inflation, the surface tension increases, forming a certain pressure on the inner surface, which enhances the sealing effect. Additionally, tubeless tires have self-sealing capabilities when punctured, making them less prone to air leakage and sudden pressure loss, thereby reducing the likelihood of blowouts. Moreover, due to their thickness, tubeless tires offer strong wear resistance. Furthermore, since tubeless tires are connected via the outer tire sealing pad and the rim's outer edge structure, they provide excellent heat dissipation.
