5、 Committee SABS SC 31A, Tyres, rim dimensions and repairs Retreaded tyres and repairs, in accordance with procedures of the SABS Standards Division, in compliance with annex 3 of the WTO/TBT agreement. This document was published in November 2009. Introduction The use of earth-moving tyres that have

6、 been badly repaired, retreaded, maintained or that have no service record (i.e. where the correct procedures have not been followed) poses safety risks to persons and might damage machinery and even the environment. The control of inspections, repairs, retreading and maintenance is necessary not on

7、ly to ensure a high standard but also to establish a safe and sound environment. Site management is essential to ensure that all hazards are identified and risk controls are put in place. This standard was designed to assist the users in the correct procedures in order to minimize safety risks. SANS

33、intenance of in-service tyres (practical maintenance for operators on site) 4.1 Selection of tyres Tyres shall be selected in accordance with the manufacturers specifications and include, but not be limited to, the following: a) the tyre load and speed; b) the TKPH rating; c) site conditions; and d)

34、 the age and condition of the tyres. All tyres submitted for repair or retreading shall be inspected before any work starts. SANS 765:2009 Edition 1 9 4.2 Pre-fitment inspections Before the fitment of a tyre, an inspection (internal and external) undertaken by a competent person should include, but

35、not be limited to, the following: a) that the tyre is in a sound state and suitable for fitment for the required application and position; b) that the tyre is clean and free of foreign objects and contaminants; c) that previous repairs and other markings are noted; and d) site-specific requirements.

36、 4.3 Periodic inspections Periodic inspections of fitted tyres shall be undertaken in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations and site requirements, and shall include, but not be limited to, the following: a) inflation pressures; b) wear; c) damage; d) separation; e) fatigue; and f) valve

37、stems, spuds, cores and caps. 5 Inspections to determine repairability 5.1 General 5.1.1 Following an inspection undertaken in accordance with 4.2, a tyre shall be removed for repair and for further inspections to determine the appropriate actions. 5.1.2 Figure 3 shows a flowchart to assist in the d

38、ecision-making of the appropriate actions. 5.1.3 Tyres shall be removed from the wheel or rim assemblies before inspection. 5.1.4 Tyres shall be thoroughly inspected internally and externally. Tyres that have been treated inside with any liquid additive or other substances that might impair the insp

39、ection process shall be cleaned out for visual inspection. Any existing repair(s) shall be closely inspected, and if its condition does not comply with the requirements of this standard it shall be removed and replaced. 5.2 Internal inspection The inner liner of the tyre shall be inspected to verify

40、 that it is in sound condition and free from any foreign objects and contaminants. There should be no exposed casing plies and no significant cracking, cuts or deformation of the inner liner. In the case of any uncertainty the manufacturers specifications shall be consulted or a visual review shall

41、be requested. SANS 765:2009 Edition 1 10 Figure 3 Inspection and repair flow chart for OTR tyres 5.3 External inspection The tread sidewall and bead areas shall be inspected to verify that the structure of the tyre is in sound condition. Cut damage and areas of deformation shall be carefully inspect

42、ed to verify the extent of the damage to the structure of the tyre. Tyres beyond repair should be clearly marked and disposed of. Tyres that do not contain a serial number or unique identification number shall not be repaired until the history of the tyre can be verified. 6 Repair limits 6.1 General

43、 Whilst it is acceptable to repair tyres, any repair might reduce the operating performance of the tyre and consideration should always be given to the failure mode if the repair is unsuccessful and likely to place users at risk. It is not acceptable to repair areas of the bead that are integral to

44、the structure of the bead area. 6.2 Repair limits for bias-ply tyres 6.2.1 Minor repairs Minor repairs to bias-ply tyres are conducted on tyres with rubber damage or local damage of a cosmetic nature. SANS 765:2009 Edition 1 11 6.2.2 Major repairs Major repairs in bias-ply tyres are conducted on tyr

45、es with damage exceeding that as specified in 6.2.1. Included are cut-through penetrations and structural damage of 50% or greater than 50% to the actual casing plies, and damage that does not exceed the repair limits specified in 6.3. 6.3 Non-repairable damage to bias-ply tyres The following types

46、of damage shall be deemed non-repairable: a) major damage in the bead area as shown in figure 1; b) damage exceeding the recommended repair limits as set by the manufacturer of repair materials; c) damage to the casing involving casing break-down (break-up) or casing separations; and d) deterioratio

47、n of inner liners, i.e. loose or detached rubber, splits or cracks. 6.4 Number of repairs to bias-ply tyres Only one major repair is permitted in any quarter segment (more than 90 apart) of the tyre circumference, with no limit on the number of minor repairs. 6.5 Repair limits for radial-ply tyres 6

48、.5.1 Minor repairs Minor repairs to radial-ply tyres are conducted on tyres with damage within the following limits: a) Rubber damage or local steel belt damage to the crown area protector belt(s), including the top working belt and not exceeding 25 mm in diameter with no damage whatsoever to the se

49、cond belt from the crown and without any cut-through damage. b) Damage to the turn-up ply shall not extend into the non-repairable area. The distance that the turn-up ply extends into the sidewall will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. The tyre manufacturers shall be consulted for exact limitations for turn-up ply damage. 6.5.2 Major repairs Major repairs in radial-ply tyres are conducted on tyres with damage exceeding that specified in 6.5.1. Included are cut-through penetration and structural damage to the radial casing ply that shall not exceed 7
