Correct use of the valve core
Most people in life have been riding bicycles, and there is a small device on the bicycle that is not very noticeable, that is tire valve core. Although tire valve core looks small, it can cause air leakage or even damage if it is accidentally caused, so that the bicycle cannot move forward. So pay attention to the following points when using.
- Need to check when purchasing
When purchasing a valve core at a bicycle repair shop, carefully check for sharp edges at the tip and jam and the amount of activity of the valve spring. The rubber mat is tight and soft, ensuring good stability during use.
- Need to install correctly
When installing the valve core, it cannot be tightened too tightly to prevent spring failure and the rubber gasket from losing its sealing effect. It is necessary to look at the side of the screw during the installation process, and it will not leak.
- Need to wear a gas cap
When using the valve core, you must wear a gas cap to prevent dust from entering the valve, which can maintain the flexibility of the valve spring and prolong its service life to a certain extent.
- Need proper dis-assembly
When disassembling the valve core, especially if something needs to be temporarily removed, do not use too much force to avoid damage to the thread and the movable tappet.
