Why Our ÅASTRAEA Nitrogen is The BEST Solution

Nitrogen provides better tire pressure retention during the daily life of a tire.

The secret to the successful use of nitrogen is consistent and regular inflation with high-quality nitrogen gas.

Nitrogen provides better tire pressure retention during the daily life of a tire.

Nitrogen molecules are larger and less likely to escape through the tire wall, maintaining tire pressure, and improving handling and fuel economy all while reducing tire wear.

Oxygen vs Nitrogen

Regular Air-Filled Tire

  • Tire heats up fast
  • Air easily permeates the tire wall
  • Air pressure is reduced frequently
  • Moisture causes large swings in tire pressure

Nitrogen-Filled Tire

  • Tire remains cooler
  • Air pressure is retained for longer periods of time
  • Lighter tires
  • Dry, high-quality nitrogen is more stable and eliminates drastic pressure swings

The Daily Cycle of a Tire

On a daily basis, tires go through many different phases. These cyclical, constant changes have a negative, compounding impact on tire life and tire tread.

Because air inflated tires leak oxygen molecules through the rubber tire membrane, underinflation speeds up the cycle even more. Proper nitrogen tire inflation is the answer to this destructive cycle because nitrogen can sustain higher heat levels triggered during use, and bigger N2 molecules don’t leak from the tires at the same rate as air.
