EXPLODING Tyres To Prove Everyone Wrong - Tyre Cage Test

[@illnamethisaccountlater4762]

Daniel took the comments about the tyre cage personal, made a whole stand alone video to prove people wrong.

[@david-bq4fv]

Love the fact he did this but generally the majority who have watched and watched long term know he knows wot he's doing and didn't comment

[@jons6125]

Didn’t really “prove people wrong” its only one test and one example of a failure mode. The slow mo clearly shows the addition of the scaffolding helped contain the energy and keep the cage in place. Even then the scaffolding seriously moved. I don’t agree with the idea of proving people with a valid concern and good intentions “wrong” …..the cage isn’t mangled like a cartoon but would you stand next to it an repeat the test?

Would love to see the test done again on a split rim that is either faulty or assembled incorrectly.

[@TheHungrySlug]

Split-Rim OR Split-Ring? Split rims (the originals that halved into two parts) aren't really ever used any more, But, Split-Ring rims are and there are two types, the old narrow flange type (known to fail to seat/bed properly) and the new of them that uses a wide flange to lock onto the rim and provide more area for the tyre bead to seat on. All that aside, having a tyre blow near you is bad enough that it'll require fresh underpants. Having one blow as you are leaning over it, the chances for injury or death are well above 70%, i think. It's not pretty and that's a given. Wife has a family member that had a rim blow up in his face. nearly took half his head/face off. Scary stuff.

[@OndreaS123]

@@TheHungrySlug Automotive i can't comment on, but in plane wheels split rims are common.

[@TheHungrySlug]

I should perhaps add, in Australia and for most other places. But old stuff on farms and where ever else, I wouldn't doubt someone would keep using them. I would actually be amazed if anyone is still using the original style of split-rims on a road registered vehicle. But again, I've seen my fair share of videos of people and cars and bad practices.

I have to say not only have you proved how strong your tyre cage is, but proved how strong todays tyres are also remoulds can be. Loved your reaction when it actually went pop though.

[@chippyjohn1]

It's only the tread that is renewed, not the actual ply. Retreads come apart from centrifugal force, not inflation.

@@chippyjohn1correct. I do supply the best retreads tho 💁🏻‍♂️

[@brandonjones4666]

Maybe try an old tire where you’ll actually get explosive belt separation… that would be interesting to see. I personally think the controlled sidewall failure was a little too controlled.

[@ianrobertson3419]

Ya, looking for a rim failure. Tires blow up all the time.

So nice to see your tyre guy getting recognition and being involved and also shown as being part of the Ashville team. These guys work wonders, often in horrible conditions and are so often overlooked! Well done `Tyre Guy` and well done All. Loved it, great video, thank you.

[@mazdamaniac4643]

20 years back, one of my friends from automotive college was killed by a brand new car tyre. It let go when he was inflating it on the tyre machine, horizontal at waist level. Something like this could have saved him. Despite people being killed by this, manufacturers of tyre machines still don't provide safety cages. Daniel's going above and beyond here, top bloke.

I retract all my critique😂 The one we use at my workplace has waaay thicker steel, that's why I was a bit wary of that thin steel👍 Glad you have people with the skill and experience to create something like that👌

[@madyottoyotto3055]

You only have to ask what grade the steel is lol The steel used is for holding concrete floors together it's heafty not tubular like the one you use sounds like

[@HenryLoenwind]

Are you sure yours isn't just using hollow beams?

[@fukkyoutube]

have you ever handled old split rim for trucks?

[@EddieTheH]

You were tired of the thin steel? I expect you meant "wary". This guy's cage is much thicker steel than most of the cages I've used through the years.

[@benjaminshropshire2900]

IIRC cages are also intended to contains things like rim failures where most of the steel goes flying one way or there other with a lot more energy than demoed here. That said, that's not as much of an issue on the types of rims being used here as it is with split rims that can do that as a result of being assembled incorrectly.

[@Mr.XJ.96]

Specifically from Split RIM Desgine. There is no need to use a Tire cage for modern rim desgins. A cage is made for Split Rim wheels only really. Modern rims a very safe compresser relief come on Doesn't happen nope......Now your playing with fire mounting and airing up a old Split Rim you'd better use a cage then.

[@benjaminshropshire2900]

@@Mr.XJ.96 OTOH the amount of energy that could be released explosively from a modern rim fracturing is a lot. If you already *have* a cage, there's little reason _not_ to use it and a slight potential of a major up side to using it.

[@ciderant]

There is nothing safer than you making your own stuff,as you spec it to a higher grade as it is your LIFE that is at risk. As an ex tyre technician i also made my own cage and due to the company buying cheap inferior tyres i sadly was greatful for the cage on various occasions. Goes to prove there is nothing wrong with making your own. Keep up the great work Daniel 👍

[@robmatthews1857]

Hi Daniel, appreciate your review of your tyre cage and it’s safety aspect however, tyre cages are/were used when wheel rims consisted on more than 1 part. These wheels are known as split rims, 2-piece rims or 3-piece rims. These were tubed tyres opposed to 1 piece rims being tubeless. Following the replacement of a tyre to a 2-piece, 3-piece or split rim a tyre fitter had to ensure the pieces were correctly aligned and the locking ring held in place whilst the wheel was being re-inflated. The cage was used to protect the tyre fitter in the event that the split rim came apart during inflation. In the event of the locking ring failing the air pressure in the tyre/tube would force the rings apart directing the locking ring straight at the tyre fitter. The steel construction of the cage would retain the ring therefore protecting the tyre fitter. I started fitting commercial tyres to rims in 1984 and have the experience to comment with the above. Great vids and keep up the great work.

[@K2edg]

Exactly!! i worked next door to a commercial tyre fitter that had a locking ring stuck halfway through a wooden roof joist , i asked about it and the guy said thats complacency!! we had done hundreds of locking rims, all done the same way and one day one just decided to let go......... guess someone got lucky their head wasn't between the wheel and the roof.

[@fukkyoutube]

that's what i said they were originally designed for split rims

[@Schmicky96]

Came to say the exact same thing. Growing up in rural Australia I'm also very familiar with split ring tyres and the dangers of them. Cages were designed for multipart rims, not for exploding tyres. A popped tyres is scary and dangerous but nothing compared to a rim flying apart with 100psi or more behind it

[@gueto70]

Worked for Texaco trucking in late 80s-early 90s. Walked away from a few used tires airing up when we were busy. Loud bang, gust of cold air and the tire may move a couple feat. wouldn't want that air blast horizontal though. Those split rings on the other hand were no joke. That cage would just become shrapnel. Our cages were 2 inch, thick wall, box steal, welded 12 inches on center. We scraped 3 in the time I worked there because they were too deformed and one garage door because the new guy didn't use the cage.

[@Donovan_Tyres_Tubeline]

Your right, tyre cages were originally designed for split rims. However it’s always best to use a cage for all types of commercial fitting when you have one available

[@tommyfuller5012]

That man was ‘Shook’ when it exploded!!😂

[@TheBlibo]

Hi I used to work on trucks years ago and occasionally do tyre changes, that was when the rims were the split rim tube type things from yesteryear. I was told that you don't have to worry about the tyre bursting as the running pressure is far lower than the burst pressure and only to worry about the split rim parts not seating correctly so as the pressure builds the parts shuld seat and contain the circlip butt occasionally a circling may not seat correctly and the whole assembly would explode and so was the need for the tyre cage.

[@rovcanada1]

I was taught that tyre inflation cages were specifically designed for split-rim wheels. Too many farmers were ... erm ... 'buying the farm' when inflating split-rim tractor tyres.

[@lukeswayne4888]

Brilliant video, not only showing how strong modern tires are but also the modern engineering behind the rims, thank god the old split rims are gone, it used to be the rim would split and explode before the tire would.

[@Killerean]

Yes, escaping air is pretty loud (priceless reaction there). In essence it's a blast wave contained in a container, an explosion without a bomb. Air can be tremendously deadly and air tank failures are a nightmare of many engineers. After all, you've seen yourself how far that camera was thrown. Pretty good test, would be fun to see a rim failure.

[@milospop8089]

The "blowout" happened to the area forcing the tyre towards the wall by escaping air velocity, but the lower security chain still unhooked! If the blowout had occurred on the wall wide "maybe" the chain could unhook and the wheel escape the cage. Chain requires a security link (carabiner) to attain retention of the wheel. Entertaining as ever...and insightful!

[@joelaw728]

Yea, hammer over and weld those hooks into a lashing eye, then get a couple of decent carabiners to securely attach them

Workshop compressor where I worked,the compressor was set at 110 psi maximum,that was all we ever inflated our tyres to when new ,repaired or retreads were inflated to 100 psi. Never trust a tyre ,even when inflating tyres with with low pressure on the vehicle, connect and stand 6ft back then inflate, especially on a tipper truck.

[@elliottsmith3632]

Interesting. Did it pop at the patch area or somewhere else? Definitely try with the split ring rims. I thought it blew in the sidewall and not from the re-tread area.

[@onlyskillss9754]

Cages were a actully made for split rim bus/truck tyres, not modern day single pice rims, to stop the rim killing some one if it wasn’t installed correctly

[@Kickaha83]

They're now used for both, originally there were only split rims, it's still just as important to use them for one piece wheels as, the whole rim/tyre assembly can easily kill or injure you in the event of a tyre explosion

[@Aboreddude]

The tire KING seems like a 10/10 guy!

[@barriecole2488]

No doubt someone may have already commented these cages were primarily designed for inflating split rim wheels, although a conventional rim tyre explosion is highly dangerous a split rim failure is far more dangerous as the rim and locking ring would bend the cage out of shape, without a cage the flying components would be released with such extreme energy anything in its path would be fatal, so I would like to see the results of your cage with a split rim wheel, how you would make it fail is another question

[@JohnDough-d6o]

Maybe try that again on tired NOT rated for 120 PSI. Maybe a normal street tire rated around 40 PSI would be easier to pop without damaging the tire first.

[@jayd1974]

Brilliant glad to know da tyre fitter will be safe👍

[@boltonky]

Random video but interesting and love the passion. As someone who lives around some commercial vege farms and did my own vulcanizing for a bit, most the ones i have seen have been from the rim having imperfections around the bead or the laws of thermal dynamics coming into play...So its about doing it right and making sure things are up-to scratch, car/motorbike tyres can do same thing so be warned. The only gripe i have with small % of drivers is having bald tyres either on big machines or cars but so many people get complacent and don't realise how much your stopping distance changes and its often not your life you put in danger. Keep having fun :)

Had a trailer tire explode during a road service call yesterday. Driver didn't know when it went flat. From what I could tell, the auto inflation airline wasn't* fully screwed on, allowing air to leak. I only had a 2ton ratchet strap attached to the rim. I estimate, based on time without valve core for my service truck, to be at around 70psi when it blew. Upon inspection afterward, the liner on the inside had a thin ripple on both sides where the tread met the sidewall. Glad I had that strap on it.

Looks strong to me and I'm impressed as to the tyres. However. Not a tyre guy. But at a place I worked we made one too. I was under the understanding that the cage was even more designed for a split rim separation. I have heard that can be incredibly destructive. Perhaps you can test that in the future. Also I worked somewhere in the past that used nitrogen in their tyres and someone overfilled a tyre from a bottle. Lots more pressure there lol. Would over inflation of a tyre like you did and causing the tyre to stretch and not be usable again, creat a failure point on it if you inflated and deflated again and again?

I've been told from by the old generations of truckers when truck tyres used to have inner tubes that those could be very dangerous if for some reason the inner tube tore apart facing the rim. All the force from the air rapidly pushed on the rim like a very powerful punch and the result were pieces of the rim flying off like shrapnels.
