• Lesser
unsprung weight
• Better
cooling
• Slower
leakage of air
• Simpler
assembly
• Improved
safety
Lesser Unsprung Weight:
• Being lighter, unsprung weight is reduced, reducing wheel
bounce
Better cooling:
• In case of tubed tyres, heat in the compressed air has to pass
through the tube material,
i.e. rubber, which is not a good conductor of heat
• Since there is no tube in the
tubeless tyres, heat can be passed on to the
atmosphere
directly, resulting in better cooling thereby increasing the tyre life
Slower-leakage of Air:
• Since the inner liner in the
tubeless tyres is not stretched like the tube, it
retains the air
better resulting in its slower leakage
Simpler Assembly:
•Only the tyre has to be fitted over the rim
Improved Safety:
• In case of any hole being caused in
the tyre, the same can be repaired simply
by plugging
• A tubeless tyre retains the air pressure for long
periods even when punctured by nail,
provided the same is held in place
• Thus the chances of sudden tyre puncture leading to accident are reduced
and any tyre
damage shows up only as a slow
leak
