18、y BSI Standards Limited, under licence fromThe British Standards Institution, and came into effect on 30 November 2013. Itwas prepared by Technical Committee AUE/3, Renovation of tyres for motorvehicles. A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtainedon request to its secretary
19、.SupersessionThis British Standard supersedes BS AU 159f:1997, which is withdrawn.Information about this documentRepairs for limited run-flat tyres and temporary use spare tyres are not coveredby this British Standard. Repairs to inner tubes are covered, but repairs forcommercial vehicle steel diago
20、nal ply tyres are not, as this type of tyre isconsidered obsolete.The 1973 edition of this British Standard specified the use of an inner tube torepair very small penetrations in tubeless tyres. This method is not specified inthe 1981, 1990, 1997 editions or the present edition.Good workshop practic
21、e for tyre repair is included in this British Standard, withemphasis on conditions during vulcanizing to ensure that carcasses are cured inthe relaxed shape.Presentational conventionsThe provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Itsrequirements are expressed in sentence
22、s in which the principal auxiliary verb is“shall”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented insmaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.Requirements in this standard are drafted in accordance with The BSI guide tostandardization Section 2: Rules for
23、 the structure, drafting and presentation ofBritish Standards, subclause 11.3.1, which states, “Requirements should beexpressed using wording such as: When tested as described in Annex A, theproduct shall .”. This means that only those products that are capable ofpassing the specified test will be d
24、eemed to conform to this standard.Contractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of acontract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legalobligations.BRITISH STAN

26、ooters, cars, commercial andagricultural vehicles for use on the public highway. It specifies inspectionprocedures, performance criteria, repair materials, and marking requirements,for both tubed and tubeless tyres.The repair of tubes and inflation valves is also covered.This British Standard is not
27、 applicable to:a) tyres designed for use on pre-1933 vehicles, as their design and constructioncan be unique and outside the range of tyres in current use;b) T-type temporary use spare tyres;c) temporary seals, i.e. externally inserted plugs, intended to allow the vehicleto be driven for a limited p
28、eriod, until a permanent repair can be effected;d) use of liquid sealants introduced into tubed or tubeless tyres to aid the airretention property (see Clause 9);e) tyres containing sealant gel; andf) specialist repairs carried out by the original tyre manufacturer.2 Terms and definitionsFor the pur
29、poses of this British Standard, the following definitions apply.NOTE Figure 1 to Figure 7 supplement the definitions given in this clause.2.1 Structure2.1.1 bias-belted tyrepneumatic tyre of the diagonal ply type, with the carcass restricted by a beltcomprising two or more layers of inextensible cor
30、d material laid at alternateangles not greater than those of the carcassNOTE For the purposes of this British Standard, a bias-belted tyre may be treated asa diagonal ply tyre.2.1.2 diagonal ply tyrepneumatic tyre in which the ply cords extend to the bead and lie at alternateangles substantially les

32、essentially inextensible circumferential belt2.1.4 radial ply self supporting run flat tyre (SST)pneumatic tyre in which the ply cords extend to the bead and lie atapproximately 90to the centerline of the tread, the carcass stabilized by anessentially inextensible circumferential beltNOTE Such tyres
33、 have a specially reinforced sidewall to enable them to performwhen deflated. Limited in-service conditions might apply when run deflated, refer tobrand manufacturer.BRITISH STANDARD BS AU 159g:2013 The British Standards Institution 2013 12.1.5 temporary use spare tyretyre intended only for temporar
