What is the difference between nitrogen and air in tires

Nitrogen, as an inert gas, is strongly recommended to be used in some special environments (such as the application of some aircraft tires and engineering machinery tires), to reduce the risk of explosion due to the action of sparks and oxygen in the air inside the tire after the tire bursts .

The inertness of nitrogen can delay the natural loss of gas inside the tire, so it is especially suitable for some applications. For example, nitrogen is especially suitable for spare tires including temporary small spare tires.

It is true that the physical properties of nitrogen (the natural airtightness of the substance) reduces the loss of air pressure, however other causes of leaks still exist (such as the combination of tires and rims, valves, etc.), so even with nitrogen There is no guarantee that the tire pressure will not be lost due to other leakage sources, but in the absence of other leakage sources, the characteristics of nitrogen can effectively reduce the loss of inflation pressure.

Tires manufactured by Michelin will perform as expected, as long as the user follows the tire pressure recommended by the car manufacturer or the tire manufacturer, regardless of whether it is inflated with air or nitrogen.

1. Nitrogen and air can be mixed.

2. It can be filled with nitrogen and air at the same time.
