When Do I Need To Change The Tires On Self-Loading Concrete Mixer?

The replacement of self-mounted mixer truck tires is a very important task because abnormal tire wear may lead to vehicle failure and safety problems if not replaced in a timely manner. Here, we will introduce four situations in which self-mounted mixer truck tires need to be replaced.

Tire Tread Depth

The tread depth of a tire is an important indicator to check whether the tire needs to be replaced. The thickness of the tread pattern must be greater than 1.6 mm. If you often drive on wet and slippery roads with little friction, try to ensure that the tread pattern thickness is twice the above value. You can learn from professionals and buy a meter to measure the thickness of the tread pattern.

Tread pattern wear indicator line

The tread wear indicator line on the self-mounted mixer truck tires is also an important sign to check the tire wear level. When the wear reaches a certain level, the indicator lines hidden in the tread grooves will appear. If almost all of the indicator lines on the tire are clearly visible, you need to replace the tire as soon as possible.

Tire Sidewall Cracks

Tire sidewall cracks and cuts also require our attention. Look for cracks and cuts on the sidewall of the tire that are directly visible to the naked eye. These tiny grooves are a sign that the tire may leak in the future or worse, even cause a tire blowout. Therefore, when a tire sidewall crack looks serious, it is still a good idea to take the vehicle to a repair shop as soon as possible to have the tire replaced.

Bumps and blisters on tires

Bumps and blisters on tires are also indicators of tire failure. If bumps and blisters appear on the surface of the tire above the normal tire surface, it indicates that the strength of the tire may have been compromised. If the vehicle is not taken to a repair shop in time to test for tire failure, areas of insufficient tread strength are likely to result in a sudden burst, causing serious injury to the driver and passengers.

Tires are an important part of a self-mounted mixer truck and their condition must be closely monitored. If a tire is in one of these four conditions, it should be replaced in time to ensure the safety and proper operation of the vehicle, even if the tire has not reached the end of its useful life.
