Tyre Knowledge : Tubeless Tyres
There is no tube in a tubeless tyre. The tyre and the rim of the wheel form an airtight container to seal the air as the tubeless tyre has an inner lining of impermeable halobutyl. The valve is directly mounted on the rim. If a tubeless tyre gets punctured, air escapes only through the hole created by the nail, thus giving substantial time between a puncture and a flat tyre.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TUBELESS AND TUBE TYPE TYRES
In a tubeless tyre, the tube is integral within the tyre; unlike a tube type tyre.
ADVANTAGES OF TUBELESS TYRES
Slow air leak. Better fuel efficiency. Less chance of damage in case of flat running.
BETTER FUEL EFFICIENCY
