As an important part of a car, tires are also the most severely worn parts. As cars travel everywhere, how long is the service life of a tire? Are there any tires that can last ten years?
According to statistics, ordinary passenger tires can travel up to 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers or about 3 to 5 years on normal roads if used for eight hours a day. If you encounter potholes, icy and snowy roads, or if the car owner drives aggressively, overloads, speeds and other bad habits, the depreciation and wear of the tires will be accelerated and the service life will be shortened.
There are wear marks on each tire. Generally, the height of the wear marks on car tires is 1.6 mm, and the height of the wear marks on truck tires is 2.4 mm. If the wear mark is found to be as consistent as the tread, it means that the tire is almost worn and should be replaced in time.
Everything has a life cycle. As an industrial product, tire wear is irreversible and difficult to maintain. It is an industrial consumable product. We must respect the product rules of tires and be sure to change them in time when it is time to change them.
Signs of tire aging
Tire aging is determined by time and mileage. The main manifestation of tire aging is surface hardening, followed by cracks. Aged tires will lose their elasticity, and continued use will cause tread deformation and risk of tire blowout.
The main raw material of tires is rubber products, which determines that rubber will gradually age over time. Even if a new tire is placed in a warehouse and has not been used, it will gradually age under the corrosion of powerful microorganisms. Becomes less elastic than when new from the factory.
The healthy development of the tire industry cannot be separated from consumers. Correct tire use and consumption habits will not only maintain their own safety, but also make great contributions to the sustainable development of the tire industry.
Please remember, never expect to use a tire for 10 years.
