What if a nail is stuck in a tire?

Nails cannot be pulled. Since the tire is a vacuum tire, even if the nail is pierced, it will not leak immediately, but after a long time, the air will leak slowly. Nails that have been pierced into a tire cannot be pulled out.

Pulling out a nail is like pulling out a knife, and when you pull it out, the blood will flow in a sparse manner, and you can't stop it unless you have prepared the tools for blood transfusion and hemostasis. The analogy may be a bit over-the-top, but the principle is the same. Under the premise of lack of maintenance tools and maintenance technology, the tires that do not leak may leak immediately, resulting in the car being completely unable to drive, and you need to change the spare tire by yourself, or tow the car to the repair shop for processing.

If you don't pull out the nails, you can also drive the car slowly to the repair shop. If your car is unfortunately punctured while driving, it is recommended not to pull out the nails by yourself, drive the car to a regular tire shop, and have a professional staff pull out and check the puncture.

Because the tire is in a rolling state during driving, the nail is not necessarily vertically pierced into the tire, if it is pulled out in time and not repaired in time, the tire abnormality cannot be repaired. For example, if there are traces of airless driving on the tires (e.g. crushing marks on the sidewall, blistering of the inner liners, etc.), it is not worth repairing because the tire structure may have been damaged and can no longer be used.

First of all, the tire must be removed from the rim and inspected by a professional tire dealer before deciding whether it can be repaired. Michelin recommends that tires cannot be repaired in the following situations: 1. The sidewall cannot be repaired.

2. If the diameter of the hole penetrated by the crown exceeds 6 mm, it cannot be repaired. 3. If the bead is damaged or deformed, the tread is deformed, the rubber is corroded by chemicals or the tire is damaged by air failure. In addition, if some damage has caused the tire to be unusable, it is not worth repairing.

If you still hear the abnormal noise of the tires during driving, you should get out of the car and check it in time. If you see that the tire is pierced by nails, don't worry too much, first use foam water drops on the nails to observe whether there are bubbles, if there are bubbles, it means that the tire is leaking; If there are no air bubbles, there is no air leak. If the nails are not deep and the tires will not leak temporarily, can they be left without treatment?

If the tire is a tubeless, the nail will not leak quickly, but over time, the air will slowly leak. It should be noted that the owner does not need to pull out the nail at this time, because once it is pulled out, it may leak. Of course, it's not that it doesn't have to be dealt with.

Slow down your car and find a repair shop to get it repaired. Because a nailed tire is a time bomb after all, especially when running at high speeds, it is very dangerous to suddenly burst a tire. Therefore, after the nail is pierced, there is no air leakage and it can be temporarily not pulled, but it needs to be repaired in time.

If it's just a tire with nails, but the tire doesn't have a flat air. Before repairing the tire, it is necessary to first check whether the nail is leaking, the general repair worker will take a brush stained with water to brush the place, and then soak in water to observe whether it is bubbling, if there is no bubbling, the tire is not pierced, then you only need to carefully take out the nail to continue to use. If it's already bubbling, it's time for tire repairs.

If there is a wound of more than 1 cm on the tire wall (i.e. the side of the tire), or if the tire crown is pierced by an object such as steel bar, causing a large hole, it is generally best to replace the tire with a new one. Therefore, if the tire is punctured, first understand the situation of the tire puncture, and then choose which tire repair method to use, which can not only better repair the tire but also help you save a cost.

1. There is no air leakage after the nail is pierced.

Because the tire is a tubeless, it will not leak immediately after a nail is pierced, but over time, the air will leak slowly. The owner should not pull out the nail without authorization, if it is pulled out, there may be air leakage, resulting in the car can not be driven. The owner can drive slowly to the repair site.

If the owner finds that the tire has a nail pierced, he must not take it lightly and should immediately go to the repair shop for inspection. Tires with nails should be repaired in time even if there is no air leakage, and tires with nails have potential safety hazards and are prone to punctures at high speeds.

2. If there is air leakage.

Slow leakage: Don't pull out the nails, once you pull them out, you may leak. You can not move it for the first time, but you can't continue to drive like the original, you must reduce the speed immediately and drive slowly, otherwise it will be terrible to get a puncture at high speed.

Nor can it be driven for a long time, find the nearest repair shop as soon as possible to deal with.

Leak quickly: At this point, the car can no longer be driven, and obediently waits in place to change the tires. If you are forced to drive, it is inevitable and dangerous to scrap the tires directly. If a tire punctures are stuck on the highway, you must quickly find rescue.

The treatment methods of tyre nails include parking the car in a safe place, checking whether the tire is leaking, temporarily repairing the tire, replacing the spare tire, etc.

1. Park the car in a safe place and check whether the tires are flat.

When it is found that the tire is nailed or rolled, the whole time to check whether the tire has air leakage, the easiest way is to use saliva, wipe around the nail to see if there are bubbles, if there is a car leak needs to be repaired;

If not, it proves that the car is not leaking, and the nails can be removed. If you are worried that your saliva test method is not accurate, it is recommended to use a tire pressure detector. Generally, there will be a tire pressure meter on the inflator pump, and it is clear whether there is a problem at a glance.

2. Temporary tire repair.

Suddenly find that your tires are pierced with nails and have air leaks, so it is particularly important to repair the tires as soon as possible. The owner cannot pull out the nail by himself, which will cause the tire to leak and affect the subsequent tire repair.

The owner can choose the mushroom nail tire repair method, or you can use the cold repair method, but it should be noted that the side of the tire is pierced by nails, and it needs to be replaced in time, otherwise there will be a risk of puncture.

3. Replace the spare tire.

If you have a spare tire in the car and you really can't solve it, then the safest way is to replace the spare tire. But for some female car owners is still a difficult thing, when replacing the spare tire, the tire screws are very tight, and it may take a while to remove the screws. Of course, don't forget to have a jack in the car.

Notes:

If the tires of the car are punctured but not leaking or the air leak is not obvious, then drive to the nearest repair shop for maintenance, and remember to drive at low speeds. If the tire is dying quickly, don't continue to drive again, park the car on the side of the road and change the spare tire, or call ** rescue. If the puncture of the tire is less than 6 mm, then it can be repaired.

If it is above 6mm, you can only get new tires.

When a tire is repaired, the performance and strength of the tire will be weakened. If you're going to drive on the highway, you can't drive too fast or speed. If you often run at high speeds, it is best to change to new tires to avoid potential safety hazards.

In addition, it is necessary to check the tires frequently, develop a good habit of regular inspection, see if the tire pressure is normal, whether the outside of the tire is punctured, aging, etc., and find the problem as soon as possible and deal with it as soon as possible. Especially when driving at high speeds or running long distances, be sure to carefully check the early group key tires before setting off.

When it comes to some car breakdowns, I believe everyone will think of the picture of tires being punctured by nails. But in the face of this situation, many partners will be at a loss, worried that continued use will cause some bad effects. So, what to do if a tire gets punctured by nails?

In fact, this question still depends on the actual situation.

Severe air leakage. If the tire is badly flat, it can no longer be used. You should park your car in a safe place in time and call for help.

Don't assume that you can reuse the nails after a (severe) air leak, as this will not only cause irreversible damage to the inner wall and hub of the tire, but it will not be as simple as repairing a single tire. Secondly, it has a great impact on the car's handling performance, not to mention driving in the rain, which is very dependent on the performance of the tires. At this time, if there is an air leak, there is naturally a great safety hazard.

Slow air leakage (not noticeable).

If the air leak is slow or almost imperceptible, then it is not impossible to stay at the nearest auto repair shop at low speed, but before driving, be sure to plan the route, check the nearest auto repair shop in **, and try to reach the destination with the shortest distance. But if the nearest auto repair shop is far away, it's best not to take this risk. After all, the impact of a flat tire cannot be underestimated.

There are no air leaks. If the tire is punctured and there is no air leak, it is okay to continue to use it, but if it is ignored all the time, it will also cause different degrees of impact. Especially in rainy weather, such bad road conditions are likely to damage the wire and cord layers of tires.

Secondly, many tires on the market have become popular in the direction of empty tires. It is important to know that this type of tire does not have an inner tube. If the wound is not pierced by the nail for a long time, it is likely that the crack will become more and more serious, or even directly punctured.

So even if there is no air leak, you should go to the auto repair shop as soon as possible to deal with it.

1.Don't pull out the nails on the tires:

All tires are vacuum tires at the moment. If a nail is nailed, it will not leak out immediately. If you pull the nail directly, the tire will leak quickly, and the car will never go to the repair shop.

2.Obvious and slow air leaks:

If the puncture is so slow that it is barely noticeable, you can still keep it slow and go to the repair shop to fix it, depending on how far you are from the repair shop. If there's still a long way to go, don't take the risk or replace insurance with a lead collapse spare tire.

3.Quick air leaks:

If the tire is punctured and you notice a significant air leak when you get out of the car, don't drive again. If driving on a highway, immediately park your vehicle in an emergency parking area and call for help. If you are near a rest stop, you can also stop at the rest stop to change the spare tire.

You should not continue to drive negligently. If you drive for a long time with a severe air leak, it will cause irreversible damage to the inner wall of the tire. If you go to a repair shop to repair a tire, you can only replace it directly.
