During the storage, transportation and use of solid tires, due to environmental and use factors, cracks often appear in the pattern to varying degrees. The main reasons are as follows:
1.Aging crack: This kind of crack generally occurs when the tire is stored for a long time, the tire is exposed to the sun and high temperature, and the crack is caused by the aging of the tire rubber. In the later period of solid tire use, there will be cracks on the sidewall and the bottom of the groove. This situation is a natural change of the tire rubber during the long-term flexion and heat generation process.
2.Cracks caused by work site and bad driving habits: The vehicle work site is narrow, the turning radius of the vehicle is small, and even turning around in situ can easily cause cracks at the bottom of the pattern groove. 12.00-20 and 12.00-24, due to the limitations of the working environment of the steel plant, the vehicle often needs to turn or turn around on the spot, resulting in cracks at the bottom of the tread groove in the tire in a short period of time; long-term overloading of the vehicle often causes cracks in the tread on the sidewall ;Sudden acceleration or sudden braking while driving can cause tire tread cracks
3.Traumatic cracking: The position, shape and size of this kind of cracking are generally irregular, which is caused by the collision, extrusion or scraping of foreign objects by the vehicle during driving. Some cracks only occur on the surface of the rubber, while others will damage the carcass and pattern. In severe cases, the tires will fall off in a large area. This kind of cracking often occurs in the Wheel Loader tires work at the port and stell mills. 23.5-25, etc., and 9.00-20, 12.00-20, etc. of scrap steel transport vehicles.
Generally speaking, if there are only slight cracks on the surface of the pattern, it will not affect the safety of the tire and can continue to be used; but if the cracks are deep enough to reach the carcass, or even cause serious blockage of the pattern, it will affect the normal driving of the vehicle and must be repaired as soon as possible. replace.
