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

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

Safe to say, this time, Daniel was indeed... Shook!!! 🤣😂🤣😂

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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👌

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.

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 👍

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.

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

Absolutely loving the animations! They're top quality and make it a lot easier to understand

This is the best channel on KZfaq!!! Daniel has turned KZfaq into the altimate testing ground for everything Construction...Well done DAL and your amazing crew!!! No one, I mean no one is doing what you guys do on KZfaq...Both here in the U.S. and abroad...Stay Blessed and Safe Guys!!! Hugs & Blessings for the U.S. 💋💋💋

Now.. Put Tezza in the cage, and keep giving him jobs to do.. See how much pressure he can take

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.

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.

Ashville BANGing out the content midweek 😂

i think if the actual rim went during a pressure up the results would be alot more different, this was controlled compared to when a rim breaks in half or tyre debeads and rockets sideways

Lovely update, I'm guessing we'll see that explosion reaction a lot more often in your videos

Top video Daniel. Great to see you being such a conscientious employer👍

Your great at explaining things and credit to you and your team for editing

Who needs the Discovery Channel when you’ve got content like this !

2:58 shoutout to the editing team… good job lads

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.

Brilliant Daniel reaction was hilarious

Can't start to tell you how glad I was to see this upload. Well done 😁

Cage stood up but DANIEL WAS SHOOK BUT FISRT TIME FOR EVERYTHING 👏👏👏👏 well done Asheville love your content 👏👏👏👏

Should've invited some uni student to participate... man got "shook"😂

🎉❤❤❤ always following...have learnt a lot from you Daniel, 🇿🇲 Zambia ❤

Bound to bound bound for the remould 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 interesting video - running out of compressor before you run out of sidewall and good to durability test the remoulds as well

Glad to see it working so well! The chain whip when the tyre explodes could be lethal though! Watching it in slow mo made it look worse 😂

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.

Glad to see only the tyre is going for scrap ,well done !!

Once one tyre did go on our trailer while I was hauling wheat. The tyre had 9 bar in them and I almost made a second sunroof to our tractor when it exploded. It was fun changing it on a busy road and obviously, it was the one that faced towards the traffic.

great content well done dan

Carnt be working you hard enough haha 1 through the week top 1 made my day 🙏💯👊

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!

😂 0:21 Okay … glad your experimenting with these new type of content

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

Tyre shook production 😂 well done Daniel

Nice! That was fun to watch. Keep Safe everyone.

Can’t wait see all the videos now off the face Daniel pulls when the tyre w pliers 😅

Seriously, middle of the week.nice one 😂

I have a feeling well be seeing that clip on loads more vids. Shook.

Interesting video. Learnt something I didn’t know

Brilliant glad to know da tyre fitter will be safe👍

Been waiting for this 😂😂

This made my day, great vid 🔥

The way that tire technician moves around and how hard he works, all I can think is that he has a full English breakfast every morning.

Wow! Awesome video! 👏

I love the commitment to shut people up 😂

That was epic thanks for sharing with us so good

I knew a guy who built his own tire cage out of soft steel. He said "I only died once!" after a truck tire he was filling blew. Tire manufacture haa improved a lot over the decades.

In my 20 years in the commercial tyre industry. I had 5 truck tyre's explode on me, luckily I could hear them zipped first, and move just out of the blasting. 😮😮😮😮.

Man was shook when it bang!

Na Daniel you mugged us off! You welded more bars on that cage and you tied it down to the scaffolding. Use the original Tyre cage without it being tied down .

Keep up the great work

Is it worth putting a chain through the middle to stop it swelling out or the tyre rolling ?

Awesome job testing your cage .. Hopefully it'll never be needed outside of the testing, but at least you'll know your techs will be safe of/when one does let go...

Love that Daniel smashes out a video to show the quality of the teams work. because people questioned the quality of guys workmanship hahahaha

I enjoyed this a lot

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.

Lad I used to work with pumped up his low profile tyres on his beamer one day, Didn't realise you have to release the gauge to get the reading, He genuinely thought it wasn't pumping up. He got that bad boy up to 9 bar (130psi) whilst kneeling next to the thing... He was a very lucky guy that day. haha

I worked for a company building Aircraft Tugs. We had one explode a tyre at Heathrow, and it brought out the Bomb Squad. It blew 10 mil. plate off the wheel arches. and created a lock down.

Great video 🎉

I really hope that the cylinder of the compressor was rated to the pressure that is was supplying. Winding up the pressure cutout doesn't increase the pressure that the tank can withstand.

The tire KING seems like a 10/10 guy!

Great video

Your townie is the man.....

Should call your tyre fitter Thor he’s an animal the way he mounted that tyre like a bicycle tyre. Legend

Impressive stuff.

i approve this tyre safety infomercial.✅✅

Dan got shook,I'm serious 😂😂😂😂

1:50 that’s funny, my name is Donovan as well 😂😂

Fair play to you Sir great video Sir

9:12 Daniel was SHOOK 😂🤣

ps , they are rated half of what they can do , no chain lock ? whats going to stop the chain whipping if it lifts up ?

Ibr I started watching this drinking a few red ones and when. Man started breaking ur down I just said man like Daniel from Asheville 😂🤣😂🤣 and laughed love it energy

Big up the tyre dude he’s a lad 😂

Wow bonus video

We should talk more rubbish to get more videos out of him 😂 Great video!

Daniel came un all guns blazing on this one!

Makes a TONNE of sense. Since these tires are make to withstand 20+tonnes of load (in a grouping of 8+) they must be blowout proof for drivers of large coorps.

That was fun!!!

Proper job and now we all no it’s probably better the the actual ones but only one thing I did see tho is I Think you should put the chains on carabiners tho to stop them Flying off just in case it gos the way the your tire guy is standing

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.

The man was shook!!

Nice experience

New business. Ashville tyre cages 😂

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.

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

I remember a tires shop down the street from my house in Los Angeles. One of their workers was airing up a truck tire with a locking ring, when the whole thing exploded. The blast sent the lock ring, and the employees head through the roof, and across the street 100 feet away. Pretty grisly.

I love this video but I do have one question what would happen if the tyre fitter was standing where the tire exploded? Like I said love the video and the channel I'm just curious

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.

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 :)

I have a suggestion to make the cage even more safe, using some sort of carabiner to close the chains so even if some sort of totally freaky (and not plausible) accident happens, the chains could not jump out like in the video. I'm in the construction industry and I really love the approach of the Ashville team regarding safety.

Need to try it with a split rim next 😂😂

After reaching your compressors limit you could of used a co2 bottle when full they are well over 800psi
