If it can't be fixed, don't fix itMany unsafe tires are returned to the road because they weren't properly inspected. The first critical step in safe tire repair is to perform a complete, thorough inspection, both inside and outside the tire. Tires must be rejected for repair if any of the following conditions exist:Broken or separated beltsLess than 2/32 (mm) tread depthBead rubber torn down to the steelBroken or kinked beadsWeather checking beyond 2/32 deepLiner separations too large for repairInjuries beyond chart limitsRun flat conditionsLoose or broken radial body cables on inside of shoulderSoft mushy rubber on inside shoulderOnly repairing safe (inspected) tires will protect your customer and your business.
