How tires are manufactured?
The first stage of tire making is collecting raw materials and formulating rubber compounds. The raw materials used are rubber, oils, pigments, antioxidants, carbon black or silica, accelerators and other additives. These are then mixed together in a huge blender, which is called Banburys. After the mixing process is completed a gum like material forms. This material is then cut into strips.
These strips will make the sidewalls and other portions of the tire.
The main body of the tire is manufactured using fabricated rubber. Polyester, nylon and rayon are the fabrics used. The fabrics are changed depending on the type of the tire.
But mostly Polyester is used.
Another ring like component is used to make a tire. This is called tire bead. Steel wires of high tensile are used to make this tire bead.
Radial tires are made in a cylindrical tire-building machine. The machine almost gives the final shape of the tire.
After the making...

Learn How To Properly Check Tire Pressure
Tire pressure is one of the things a car needs to have checked most often. Ideally, you should check them once a month as well as any other time when they might look low. Also, if you are planning a long trip with your car, tire pressure is one of the main things you should check, along with a general checking.The first thing you need in order to be able to check your car's tire pressure is a tire pressure gauge. You can acquire one at any car parts store or just use one in a gas station. All gas stations have one, but you should ask if it is functioning well before using it.
Some of the gauges you might find in gas stations are old or damaged and therefore the information they would give you would be incorrect, which could even lead you to add more air to the tire than it should have. This way, it is important that you make sure the gauge you will use functions properly. In order to be able to evaluate the pressure your tires have, you should learn how much pressure they should...

Flat Tires, Slow Leaks, and Online Marketing

Or is it more like a slow leak?Today my 16 year old son Fritz called on the cell phone from high school.
Mom took the call.
"Could Dad fix my flat tire during the day?"
Of course I would fix it.And then it hit me.

As I remember, I was making a dollar for every 3 dollars I spent...
