Tire Inflation

Did you know that using nitrogen for tire inflation has a lot of advantages? Compared to inflating tires with air, using N2 benefits the tire, fuel consumption, and vehicle safety. And the best way to get that nitrogen is to simply produce your own.

Tire inflation is crucial for vehicle performance, safety, and efficiency, and nitrogen offers significant advantages over regular air. By using high-purity nitrogen, drivers can maintain more consistent tire pressure, reduce wear, and improve fuel efficiency. This makes it a popular choice for commercial fleets, high-performance vehicles, and everyday drivers looking for better tire longevity.
 

The demand for reliable nitrogen solutions in tire inflation continues to grow, and this is where Pneumatech excels. As a specialist in on-site industrial gas generation, we provide advanced nitrogen systems that ensure a consistent and cost-effective supply. With our solutions, businesses and service providers can eliminate the need for bottled nitrogen deliveries, reduce costs, and enhance operational efficiency.

What role does nitrogen play in tire inflation?

What you put into a tire greatly influences what you get out of it. As an inert and dry gas, that makes nitrogen (N2) the ideal choice for tire inflation for several reasons:
 

  • Improved safety: High speeds or heavy loads can put a lot of stress on a tire and could cause it to explode. Using nitrogen eliminates this risk because it limits the oxygen level inside the tire.

  • Better fuel efficiency: Tires containing nitrogen maintain their pressure longer. This reduces friction and results in significant fuel efficiency gains (often a 2-3% improvement).

  • Optimized performance: Nitrogen ensures a more stable tire pressure. This extends the life of the tire, reduces the number of inflations, and improves maneuverability. Nitrogen increases these benefits further by reducing the moisture content in tires.

What are the nitrogen requirements for tire inflation?

As a superior method of tire inflation, nitrogen offers a range of benefits. To take full advantage of them, any N2 solution has to meet specific requirements:
 

  • Reliability: A lot is riding on tires, so a dependable supply of nitrogen is key.

  • Purity: Tire inflation requires lower purity nitrogen, which is less expensive to produce. This means significant cost-efficiencies can be achieved with an N2 solution that allows for the selection of the right purity.

  • Versatility: A nitrogen solution for tire inflation must meet the diverse needs of the wide range of tire types and applications. 

  • Compact and quiet: Tire inflation nitrogen generators are typically installed at the point of use. With people working in close proximity, a compact and quiet generator is a valued asset.

  • Ease of use: Tire inflation should not be a complicated task. Any nitrogen solution must be easy to operate by multiple staff members.

On-site generation of nitrogen for tire inflation – the preferred solution

Companies with large vehicles, those that travel great distances, or those subjected to high stresses should use nitrogen for tire inflation. The best option for these businesses is to generate their own nitrogen on-site, which offers several key benefits. It is a more cost-efficient solution, helping to reduce expenses over time. Eliminating the need for bottled or liquid nitrogen deliveries also lowers the environmental footprint.

Additionally, on-site generation provides greater control over the nitrogen supply, ensuring a consistent and reliable source. Finally, it simplifies operations by removing the logistical challenges associated with external deliveries.

Drive to success with the PMNG HE

The PMNG HE is the ideal solution for the convenient and cost-efficient generation of nitrogen for tire inflation.
