defektjavítás

Defektjavítás refers to the process of repairing a puncture or damage to a tire. This is a common automotive maintenance task that allows a vehicle to continue operating after a tire has lost air pressure due to a foreign object or other cause of damage. The primary goal of defektjavítás is to restore the tire's integrity and prevent further air loss.

The most common method of defektjavítás involves the use of a repair plug or patch. For minor punctures, a plug can be inserted into the hole from the outside of the tire, effectively sealing the leak. This is often a temporary or emergency repair. A more permanent solution involves dismounting the tire from the wheel and applying a patch to the inside surface of the tire, covering the puncture from the interior. This method requires specialized tools and is generally considered a more robust repair.

Before attempting any defektjavítás, it is crucial to inspect the tire for the extent and location of the damage. Repairs are typically only viable for punctures in the tread area of the tire. Damage to the sidewall of a tire is generally considered irreparable and necessitates tire replacement. Safety is paramount during the defektjavítás process, and proper tools and techniques should always be employed. If unsure, professional assistance from a tire shop is recommended.
