A tubeless tire is a pneumatic tire without an inner tube. The tubeless tire uses the inner wall of the tire and the airtight layer of the bead to ensure good air tightness between the tire and the rim. The outer tire also functions as an inner tube and has a simple structure.
The difference between tubeless tires and ordinary tires and how to distinguish them
1. Tubeless tires do not have inner tubes, while ordinary tires have inner tubes.
2. The "TUBELESS" logo on the tire is a tubeless tire. The English translation of Tubeless is a tubeless tire, which is a tubeless tire. The tires with the "TUBE TYPE" logo are ordinary tires.
3. The valve of the tubeless tire is directly connected to the hub and closed by rubber; while the valve of the ordinary tire is not directly connected to the hub, but is mostly a metal valve, which does not need to be closed.
4. The maintenance time of vacuum tires is short, usually a few minutes are enough. For ordinary tires, the inner tube has to be pulled out, and the gap must be filled after checking where it is broken, and then put back inflated.
5. Compared with ordinary tires, tubeless tires have stronger grip and better shock absorption performance. Overall, the ride stability is better and there is a smoother performance in the acceleration phase.
Advantages of Tubeless Tire
1. Safe and good heat dissipation
The outer side of the tubeless tire bead is attached with a rubber sealing layer specially used to seal the gas, which has the ability of self-sealing. Since there is no inner tube, there is no friction between inner and outer tires, and heat can be directly dissipated through the rim, with good heat dissipation performance.
2. Fuel saving and long life
Since there is no inner tube, the structure is simpler, the tire mass is lighter, and the rolling resistance is smaller, which can save fuel. And because its ground pressure is relatively uniform, the tire wear is relatively more uniform, thereby extending the service life of the tire.
