What’s Inside Your Tires?

What’s Inside Your Tires?

What is inside my Tires
When you look at a tire, you might think it's just a simple piece of rubber. However, the modern tire is a marvel of engineering, packed with advanced materials and technology that make driving safer and more efficient. Gone are the days when tires were just hollow rings of rubber; today’s tires are designed with precision to meet various needs.
Tread
The outermost part of the tire, the tread, is the patterned layer you see. It plays a crucial role in grip and traction, especially in different weather conditions. The tread design depends on whether the tire is meant for performance, all-season use, or off-road adventures.
Belts (or Belt System)
Below the tread lies the belt system, usually made of steel. These belts give the tire its strength and stability, ensuring that it remains flat and doesn’t bulge under pressure. This helps improve handling and durability, allowing the tire to last longer.
Body Ply
Another essential component is the body ply, which sits beneath the steel belts. Made of layers of polyester fabric covered with rubber, the body ply supports the structure of the tire, helping it withstand the weight of the vehicle and maintain its shape.
Bead
On either side of the tire, there’s the bead, which is a combination of wire and rubber. The bead seals the tire to the rim, preventing air leaks and keeping the tire securely attached to the wheel.
Inner Liner
Inside the tire, the inner liner is responsible for retaining air. To ensure no air escapes, this layer is crafted from materials that are impermeable to gases.
Sidewall
The sidewall is the rubber portion on the sides of the tire. It protects the tire from damage caused by curbs and other road hazards while also providing information about the tire’s specifications, such as load capacity and speed rating.
Each component of the tire has evolved over time to enhance performance and longevity. Today’s tires can last up to 100,000 miles, a vast improvement from the 20,000-mile lifespan of bias-ply tires back in the 1970s. This progress is a testament to the dedication of tire manufacturers who continue to innovate.

Anaerobic Glue

Anaerobic Adhesive is a one-component adhesive that cures in the absence of oxygen. It is mainly used for locking, sealing and bearing sleeves of metal threads. Its curing depends on the catalytic effect of metal ions and polymerizes rapidly when oxygen is isolated (such as at the thread meshing point).
Anaerobic sealants will not cure without the presence of metal and a lack of oxygen. As it turns out, that is exactly what happens when an anaerobic sealant (adhesive) is sealed between a nut and a bolt on a threaded metal assembly, or between two closely fitted metal cylindrical parts. With active metal ions and no oxygen, anaerobic adhesives and sealants rapidly cure to form a tough cross-linked plastic that will bond quite well to many metals.

LINGWO’s threadlockers prevent loosening due to vibration or thermal expansion on all metal threaded fasteners and provide corrosion-resistant seals. Threadlockers outperform and are more cost-effective than alternative locking means such as lock washers, locking threads, and studs.

LINGWO has  a full line of anaerobic adhesive threadlockers. A very large range of available viscosities spans from very low wicking grades for post-assembly sealing and weld porosity sealing, to high viscosity for large nuts and bolts. LINGWO threadlockers are available in permanent and removable grades as well as high temperature-resistant grades. Threadlockers are used throughout various industries.
