When you need to replace or repair a tire.

The class develops when to replace or repair a tire to save money, ensure safety, and prevent accidents. Slide 2. When to replace or repair a tire.  When it is safe to repair a tire. Knowing when to repair a tire and when to replace it is essential to ensuring your safety and avoiding unnecessary expenses. Generally speaking, a tire can be repaired if the damage is minor, located on the tread, and has not affected the internal structure. However, it must be replaced if the damage is on the sidewall, if there is excessive wear, or if its structural integrity has been compromised. For a repair to be safe, clear technical criteria established by the industry must be met. Not all damage can be repaired, so it is essential to correctly assess the type and location of the problem. Before deciding, check that all of the following conditions are met. 1. Damage to the tread. The puncture must be located in the central area that comes into direct contact with the road surface. This part of the tire is stiffer and more stable than the sidewalls, so it can withstand a repair without compromising safety. However, repair is only recommended when the damage is limited. 2. The hole must be small. The diameter should not exceed 6 millimeters. A small puncture allows for proper sealing from the inside and maintains the tire’s structural integrity after repair. 3. No structural damage. There should be no bulges, deep cracks, or separation of the inner layers. If the casing is damaged, the tire loses its ability to safely withstand pressure and load. 4. The tire must not have been driven on while deflated. Driving with low pressure can deform and weaken the internal reinforcements, even if the external damage appears minor. This reduces reliability, even after the puncture has been repaired. 5. Sufficient tread depth. The tire must have a tread depth greater than 1.6 millimeters and show no signs of uneven wear. If it is close to the legal limit or is severely worn, repairing it is not recommended because its performance is already compromised. English subtitles available.
