Daily maintenance of tire valves:
1. Check the valve valve regularly, if the valve valve aging, discoloration, cracking must be replaced valve. If the rubber valve turns dark red, or if the color fades when you touch it, it means that the valve valve is too old to seal the tire. If you continue to use it, you will easily have a leak or a flat tire, should be replaced in a timely manner.
2. In addition, in the rainy season, salt corrosion of valve nozzle is very serious in coastal cities. So at this time should be more frequent maintenance.
3. If possible, it is recommended that after each tire is inflated, water or soapy water can be wiped on the valve nozzle to ensure no air leak, and then tighten the valve cap.
4. It is strongly recommended that a new valve be replaced with a new tire. Generally speaking, when the tire is running at high speed, the air nozzle itself it bears the weight of 1.7 kilograms. In addition, the valve valve life is generally 3-4 years, and the life of almost the same tire, it is recommended to replace together. If you do not change the valve valve when changing a new tire, although the valve valve did not see the problem, but in the new tire life cycle, valve valve may be premature aging, rupture, causing safety hazards.
How to determine whether the valve is leaking air:
1. Check for air tightness by spraying water or soapy water around the valve nozzle to see if there are persistent bubbles. If have then explain valve nozzle and wheel hub contact is not close or valve rubber aging.
2. If there is no air leak around the valve, then we open the valve cap, in the valve core spray some water or soap to see if there is a continuous bubble generation. If so, use the valve core tool to try tightening the valve core a little, and then spray water observation. If not, it means the valve needs to be replaced.
