Nitrogen tires will not soon displace conventional

Currently, many European stations and Tire-up companies offer drivers to change tires, inflated conventional air for tires filled with compressed nitrogen. Meanwhile, experts believe that the rush of fashion and change awl soap is not necessary.
According to the experts ADAC, tires with nitrogen content in many spheres of human activity are used for a long time. In particular, the racing car and airplane undercarriage tire inflation used is clean nitrogen, rather than "normal" air. Since oxygen in these tires are left, wheels rarely erupt during braking and tires overheated oxidized slowly.
However, do not expect that filling tires at a gas station coveted nitrogen only € 10, the motorist permanently get rid of the need to check the pressure. After all, it is often promise slogan interested in promoting this service organizations.
On pressure and its variability in bus use pure nitrogen much impact does. The internal pressure of the wheels is indeed reduced slightly slower, however, in comparison with conventional tires, this difference is very small and is only 1/100 bar for a few months.
Modern tires are inflated to the "normal" air, is also extremely resistant to pressure loss. In addition, the nitrogen content in the traditional version of the already reaches 78%. Depending on weather conditions, in order to tires let down in any case will take at least three months. Typically, monthly tire pressure decreases only by 0.1 bar. The only exception: physical damage to the tire. But in this case, 100%-ing nitrogen pumped into it, the owner of the machine also does not help.
