Water can enter if there are gaps in the rearview mirror housing. Below is a relevant introduction to the materials used for rearview mirror housings: 1. ABS: ABS is a material known for its high strength, good toughness, and ease of processing and molding. The rearview mirror housing is modified based on ABS to enhance its heat resistance and weather resistance, making it suitable for automotive rearview mirror housings. 2. TPE: Used for sealing gaskets at the base of the rearview mirror. TPE material is highly elastic, strong, and has excellent rebound properties. It is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and safe, with a wide range of hardness. It offers superior coloring, weather resistance, and temperature resistance, with a soft touch and excellent processing performance. It does not require vulcanization and can be recycled to reduce costs. It can be used for secondary injection molding, bonding with basic materials such as PP, PE, PC, PS, and ABS, or can be molded separately. 3. ASA: ASA has strong weather resistance and relatively good high-temperature resistance, with outstanding heat and weather resistance. It is a type of automotive plastic used for manufacturing rearview mirror housings.

Can You Drive with Tire Pressure at 200?

Tire pressure at 200 is too low and not safe for driving. The impacts of low tire pressure include: 1. Increased friction coefficient with the road surface; 2. Heavier steering wheel, prone to deviation, creating unsafe driving conditions; 3. Increased movement of various parts of the tire, leading to abnormal heating due to excessive rolling; 4. Reduced functionality of the cord and rubber, causing delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim leading to damage at the bead area; 5. Increased deformation of the tire body, resulting in cracks on the tire side and flexing movements, accelerating rubber aging, fabric layer fatigue, and wear at the tire shoulder.
