Precautions for inflating semi-trailer tires
Semi-trailer is a commonly used highway transportation vehicle, which greatly accelerates the efficiency of road transportation. In order to avoid problems with semi-trailer tires during transportation, today Ultraton will talk about what to pay attention to when inflating semi-trailer tires?
- Semi-trailers that have just finished their transportation journey are not suitable for inflation, because vehicles that have been driving for a long time will experience swelling, which will affect the air pressure and make it difficult to judge the inflation quantity. Therefore, we need to wait until the temperature of the wheels drops before inflating them.
- Since tires often come into long-term contact with the ground, dirt, dust, etc. often accumulate on the valve stem. Before inflating the tires of the semi-trailer, the valve stem must be cleaned before inflating. At the same time, check whether the inflation equipment and the surrounding environment are clean to prevent impurities, oil stains, water, etc. from entering the tire, which may cause tire deformation or damage.
- Try not to remove the valve core and inflate it by increasing the air pressure forcibly to prevent the phenomenon of valve stem screws loosening and leaking air. After inflation, use water to smear the valve stem to see if it leaks air, so as to repair or replace the valve core in time. At the same time, install the valve stem cap to prevent impurities from entering the valve stem.
The main uses of semi-trailer
- The cargo-carrying part of the stake-type semi-trailer is a semi-trailer with a stake structure. It has a wide range of uses and is mainly used for medium and long-distance transportation of medium and heavy bulk cargo. With strong applicability, it has become the first choice for medium and long-distance freight vehicles.
- The cargo-carrying part of the flatbed semi-trailer has no stakes and has a wide range of uses, mainly for medium and long-distance freight transportation.
- The cargo-carrying part of the low flatbed semi-trailer is also widely used and suitable for the transportation of a variety of mechanical equipment, large objects, highway construction equipment, large tank bodies, power station equipment, and various steel materials.
- The cargo-carrying part of the grid-type semi-trailer is a semi-trailer with a grid structure design. It is mainly used for the transportation of agricultural and sideline products and other light and foamy goods.
- The box-type semi-trailer series products are suitable for the transportation of household appliances, light textile goods, coal, sand and other building materials, as well as pallet goods.
- The cargo-carrying part of the container semi-trailer is a semi-trailer with a container structure. It is mainly used for logistics systems that are matched with ships, ports, shipping lines, highways, transfer stations, bridges, tunnels, and multimodal transport.
- The self-unloading semi-trailer is suitable for the transportation of bulk and scattered goods such as coal, ore, and building materials.
- The cargo-carrying part of the tank-type semi-trailer is a semi-trailer with a tank-type structure. It is mainly used for the transportation of liquids, bulk materials, bulk cement, etc.
- The cargo-carrying part of the vehicle transport semi-trailer is a semi-trailer with a grid structure design. It mainly carries cars, and can also carry vans, business vehicles, Jeep and other passenger cars.
