Renovation of the tire: to have the security environment

Tire has a bearing on the quality of the traffic safety

Renovation of the use of tires is the international trend

With the concept of environmental protection and reduction of people, especially in recent years to high oil prices will have to be scrapped tire recycling renovation, the world has become a popular trend, automobile tires has always been refurbished several times in order to give full play to their Value.

Experts pointed out that the tires needed for the renovation of a synthetic rubber, oil consumption is only 1/3-1/4 of the new tires, and refurbished with new tires as durable tires and at the same time to save the economy. To Michelin truck tire, for example, overseas developed countries generally use to renovate 3-4, 7-8 up at the high-mileage up to 1,130,000 km.

A new birth in 70% of the value of the tire carcass, and the easier it is the wear and tear of the tire tread pattern, the renovation of old tires a savings equal to 70% of new rubber resources. According to the information from Finland, Finland introduced in 1996 on the recycling of discarded tires a special bill to require the production and sale of the tire manufacturers will be obliged to replace down for recycling of discarded tires, to be designated by the plant and use of renewable sources. Only in 1998 was down to replace the discarded tires 2,000,000, 350,000 renovation was made of tires. That the quality of the tires with new tires, not any different, and the price is only half of the new births. The rest of the more than 100 million used tires were treated as a fuel for power generation, road building materials, or materials. According to statistics, due to the recycling of discarded tires, Finland produced a series of new industries, the creation of wealth each year nearly 12 billion U.S. dollars, to provide the community with 5,000 jobs.

China in the renovation of the use of tires has been behind

Compared to overseas, China in this regard on many behind. Data show that the developed countries in the renovation of old tires birth rate has exceeded 80%, while China is not 10%; "turn over a new" in the United States is 9:1, 26:1 is our country. Experts have pointed out that developed countries and the renovation of the tire industry compared to China at least 10-20 years behind. In 2004 China's production of discarded tires 112,000,000, for example, if the level of developed countries, at least 1,800 10,000 used tires can be refurbished, but our actual renovation of the only 8,000,000. Fetal source of a serious shortage of about 10,000,000 scrap tires as the tires. Tires from the renovation of the species, only the current refurbishment of bus and truck tires with tires, car tires or renovation of the blank, and the car tires in Europe to replace the renovation market was 28.8 percent.

It is understood that China encourages the use of discarded tires technical renovation in order to raise the utilization rate of repeat of the waste, energy consumption. The renovation of tires for trucks only, in a rigorous production and quality control, quality and more reliable. Can be used to renovate the country each year out of discarded tires are 120,000,000, which means that each year there may be more than 100,000,000 tire renovation to re-enter the market.

However, the Guangdong quality supervision departments and other places shows that the quality of the renovation of tires need to be sorted out: such as the manufacture of the jerry-building - due to fierce competition in the market, some manufacturers to take on lower rates and the use of plastic with the poor quality of raw materials to reduce production costs and In order to lower prices to win market. Many manufacturers are weak indigenous technological capacity, backward production technology, the lack of testing equipment, and even the industry norms do not understand the signs, the renovation of the tires produced can be used even if there are many security risks. In accordance with relevant state regulations, due to reasons such as the bursting of the tire cord injury can only be used in the manufacture of reclaimed rubber, rubber powder, can not be used for renovation. However, some enterprises in order to make a profit, this should be completely scrapped tires to carry out renovation, the traffic safety to the serious security risks.

Consumer awareness forget

Experts pointed out that the tires have been refurbished for the national mandatory standards, sub-standard tires can not be refurbished to enter the market. Therefore, as long as the formal professional store to buy tires renovation, not only can be assured of quality, but also be able to enjoy the savings and environmental benefits of the multiple.

However, the market is still relatively confused, decided to renovate the purchase of tires must pay attention to the following aspects: First of all, not just to save money, not to shop at roadside qualified replacement tire renovation. Second, in China there are very few car tires of the renovation, particularly across the renovation of the so-called cheap car tires have to be careful to buy.

In addition, some businesses will be refurbished in order to tire wear will not be long "almost new birth" in the name sold to consumers, here it should be noted that the regular brand manufacturers to produce tires, automobile tires on all types of tires, performance, and so on, Sidewall and tread and no difference between the inner bearing durability, anti-tank tread wear mark clearly visible. Renovation of the general matrix of fetal rough comparison, the side of the tire marks are combined, the renovation of the tire marks were put up for re-use nail Zhuanao these signs will be able to pull out of the renovation is a tire.
