How To Prevent Special Car Tires From Falling Off

Mar 21, 2020

Have you seen that the tires disappeared when the truck was running on the road? This is the case, and the reason for the dropout has been investigated. It is the looseness of the truck's bearing that caused the tire to fall off. Pay attention to what are the main reasons for tires falling off!


What are the specific reasons for the tire falling off?


The first point is that loose screws cause tires to fall off. Most tires accidentally fall off due to loose fixing nuts. Especially some vehicles do not pay attention to maintenance. When driving for a long time in harsh road conditions, the nuts are prone to loosening. If not found in time, Easy to cause the tire to fall off. During the driving process, there are many cases of accidents caused by tires falling off, especially at high speeds. After the tires accidentally fall off, they will “blindly” roll on the highway with a certain amount of kinetic energy. Avoiding accidents and causing traffic accidents.


The second point is that the overload is severe and the working conditions are bad. Some heavy-duty vehicles have severe overloads, and most of them are used for infrastructure projects. Due to the serious potholes in the ground and the heavy load, the tire will be overstressed during bumps, which will cause the screws to break and fall off, and the steel basin screws will be accompanied by crispness in most cases during the break. The cracking sound of the tire is easy to find.


The third point is the aging of the screws, the lack of maintenance of the vehicle, many drivers do not maintain the truck for a long time and do not overhaul, screws and nuts will be seriously aging, which is also one of the reasons that cause the tire to fall off.


After the tires fall off, the vehicle will drift or slip when braking, which poses a significant safety hazard to the vehicle.


The fourth point is to beware of the "third hand". Large special vehicles have been running on the road for a long time and will sleep more heavily during rest. At this time, there may be thieves. Be sure to watch out for thieves stealing the tires. Sometimes the thieves may not succeed, but they may have removed or loosened some screws. If the driver does not find them in time, the consequences are really unthinkable!


Therefore, regular maintenance is very important, at least to ensure that the vehicle can be on the road normally. During maintenance, we must pay attention to the annual inspection, maintenance and repair of the vehicle to ensure that the vehicle is in good condition.


There is also a visual inspection before driving to check whether the wheel bolts and nuts are complete, rusted, or cracked or damaged. Check if the wheel bolts can start from the same dimensions as the wheel nuts. If unevenness occurs, it may cause the nuts to loosen or the bolts to break.


Now pay attention to the tire carcass. To check the tire for cracks, breakage and abnormal wear, check the depth of the tire grooves, and measure whether the tire pressure is within the specified range. Driving under abnormal tire pressure will increase the pressure on the wheel bolts, which may cause the bolts to break and cause tires to fall off.


The most important thing is not to overload. Overloading will greatly increase tire pressure, resulting in sudden accidents such as punctured tires or tires falling off. It is said that it is more serious to check the overload now. Do n’t be punished!


How to deal with an emergency situation where the tires fall off like this?


Second, hold the steering wheel tightly and slowly slow down when the tires fall off. Don't panic when you steer the steering wheel. At this time, you must not rush into the direction. If the driving trajectory is suddenly changed, the vehicle will lose control at any time, and the driver will have no emergency time and space.


Second, observe the rear vehicle through the rear-view mirror for whatever reason. As long as you brake and slow down on the road, you must observe the situation of the rear vehicle through the rear-view mirror to prevent rear-end collisions. After the speed drops, make a judgment based on the trajectory of the tires flying over. You should avoid to the left or right.
