Why do most inner tubes use butyl rubber

The butyl rubber inner tube has good air tightness, heat resistance, elasticity, aging resistance, and small permanent deformation. The inner tube colloid of butyl gum has good self-closing performance and high gas density.

  • Advantages: good airtightness, heat resistance, elasticity

Introduction

The butyl rubber inner tube has good air tightness, heat resistance, elasticity, aging resistance, and small permanent deformation. The inner tube of butyl gum has good self-closing properties and high gas density.

Advantages

After loading, the air pressure of the inner tube is more than 8 MPA, and the high air density matrix reduces the natural gas leakage, which is lower than the natural rubber inner tube in use and is more fuel-efficient in driving. The high-temperature resistance of the butyl rubber inner tube is superior to that of the natural rubber inner tube. When the car runs at a high speed for a long time, the temperature of the tire inner cavity is very high, which makes the inner tire rubber self-sulfide quickly, affects the service life, and the butyl rubber inner tube is more resistant to aging. The use time is longer。

Characteristics of Butyl tubes

  • Butyl is a global trend in the development of inner tubes;
  • Butyl inner tube has excellent air retention, its air retention rate is more than 10 times that of natural glue;
  • The use of butyl rubber inner tube can improve the life of the outer tube crown and reduce rolling resistance;
  • Anti-tear and heat resistance of butyl inner tube, all-weather resistance and self-oxygen resistance, excellent anti-environmental disadvantage;
  • Identification method of butyl inner tube: Blue line;
  • Butyl rubber products can effectively absorb vibration energy, a pen from high altitude fall if the pen does not bounce for Butyl inner tube, bounce for imitation.

Four reasons for customers to choose Butyl tube

  • longer life of outer/internal tires
  • Improve the quality of product
  • Better external/internal tire maintenance
  • Satisfied customers

Warning

  • It is dangerous to replace tires without authorization, the replacement of tires must be done by professionals, and the use of special equipment and tools using inappropriate installation methods may lead to personal injury.
  • Do not use damaged tires, inner tubes, or rim stripes.
  • The inflatable pressure should not exceed the recommended inflatable pressure marked on the tire side, excessive inflation may lead to tire burst and may lead to serious personal injury.
  • If you do not understand the installation instructions, please do not install the inner tire.
  • Do not stand, tilt or assemble tires when they are inflated.

Attention

  • The inner tube is installed in the tire. The use of the inner tube anywhere else can lead to serious personal injury.
  • Do not use the inner tube on a tire larger or smaller than the manufacturer’s specification. Any discrepancy in size can lead to a flat tire and may lead to personal injury.
  • A new tire should be matched with a new inner tube.
  • The inner tube that can be used is removed from the tire for some reason, it must be placed in the same tire or scrapped.
  • Do not load the tire into damaged, deformed, or any repaired rims, as welding slag and traces left by welding or copper welding operations during maintenance can damage the tire.
  • Before trying to remove the outer tire, please remove the air core and vent first.
