The major cause of incessant tyre burst accidents on Nigerian roads is that Nigerians put too much air pressure in their tyres when pumping. But with our Double Cylinder Smart Digital Inflator, you are able to pump your tyres with the right/correct air pressure provided you know the correct tyre pressure of your tyres.
Pls read the below narrative to the end, promises to be educative.
Mr. Jide (a car owner) narrated a story of how he was preparing to travel from Ekiti to Lagos, he went to a vulcanizer’s shop to change some of his tyres. He asked the vulcanizer; “What is the recommended tyre pressure for my tyres?”, The Vulcanizer said, “Oga the gauge na 50”. He then asked the Vulcanizer , “why?”, the vulcanizer quickly replied, “Oga na so we dey pump am o”. With this, Mr. Jide trusted the vulcanizer’s judgement believing the vulcanizer knew the job and asked him to inflate all his tyres to 50 PSI (pounds per square inch).
Coincidentally, when Mr. Jide got to where he was going, one of our team members was at that same location on a delivery of this our product being advertised here (The Double Cylinder Smart Portable Digital Display Car Tyre Inflator WITH Auto-Shutoff & Flash Light). A discussion on the issue of incessant tyre burst accidents and deaths on Nigerian roads were on and he joined in. Some urged that it was bad roads, others, say its expired tyres. But in all of these talks, our man gladly informed them that the major cause of tyre burst in Nigeria is that Nigerians put too much air pressure in their tyres, undermining the recommended tyre size and pressure clearly written by the manufacturer.
Mr. Jide was surprised with this piece of information and pressed forward to find out more. He begged our man to come and show him where it’s written on his car. To Mr. Jide’s greatest surprise, it’s on a sticker by the driver’s door jamb which he enters every day without noticing it or give a care to read what that sticker says. This sticker can also be found in your vehicle’s owner’s manual and some car models even place the stickers on the trunk lid, in the console or on the fuel door.
By the time they checked, the recommended pressure for Mr. Jide’s tyres ws 33 PSI! and he (Mr. Jide) just traveled with tyres on the pressure of 50 PSI. This can be likened to one sitting on a time bomb.
Many people have made the same mistake Mr. Jide made and such has led to a lot of fatalities on our roads. A lot of road side vulcanizers are not professionals at what they do and from Mr. Jide’s narrative here, you can see its fatal for you to trust their judgement on matters concerning the air-pressure of your tyres.
And also, it is pertinent to note that you ought not to inflate your tyres to the pressure listed on the tyre itself. That number is the maximum pressure the tyre can hold, not the recommended pressure for the vehicle. Tricky, right?
Tyres are made of rubber and expand at high temperature. So, when you are travelling in the afternoon when the asphalt on the road is hot, the tyre will want to expand. If the pressure in the tyre is too much and wouldn’t accommodate the expansion, a burst is likely to happen at that time.
