What is the construction of your airbag?
The outer rubber layer can protect the synthetic cord layers and inner rubber layer against abrasion from sharp objects and corrosion from sea water and bad weather condition. Also it helps to guarantee good air tightness.
The synthetic tyre cord layers is the reinforcement layers for airbag. The layer numbers depends on the working pressure and could be from 3 to 12layers according to customer’s demand. This material is always used in tire industry and could hold extremely high pressure under terrible using environment.
The inner rubber layer is to keep air inserted into it. The thickness of inner rubber layer have an important influence on the air tightness. Huanghai brand air bag’s thickness of inner layer was increased and could be 100% no air leakage within 24 hours.
The necessary metal parts include tee-joint, valve, hose coupling, pressure gauge, pulling ring and other metal accessories.
