2. Schrader valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrader_valve

   The Schrader valve is used on virtually all automobile tires and motorcycle tires and most wider-rimmed bicycle tires.In addition to tube and tubeless tires, Schrader valves of varying diameters are used on many refrigeration and air conditioning systems to allow servicing, including recharging with refrigerant; by plumbers conducting leak-down pressure tests on pipe installations; as a ...

3. Presta valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presta_valve

   The Presta valve (also French valve (FV) or Sclaverand valve) is a type of tire valve commonly found on high pressure bicycle inner tubes and is commonly used on tubeless setups. It consists of an outer valve stem and an inner valve body. A lock nut to secure the stem at the wheel rim and a valve cap may also be present.

4. Dunlop valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunlop_valve

   The Dunlop valve, (also called a Woods valve, an English valve or a Blitz valve [1]) is a type of pneumatic valve stem in use—mostly on inner tubes of bicycles—in many countries, including Japan, [2] Korea, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, most European countries, and a number of developing countries.

5. Inner tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_tube

   An inner tube is an inflatable torus that forms the interior of some pneumatic tires. [1] The tube is inflated through a valve stem and fits inside the tire casing. The inflated inner tube provides structural support and suspension, while the outer tire offers grip and protects the more fragile tube.

6. Valve stem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_stem

   An inflator stem is not used; instead, a removable cap on a valve stem embedded in the tire rim is fitted, with only the cap visible. When inflating the tire, the cap is first removed, typically with a coin, and then a "portable" dedicated inflator stem is screwed onto the valve stem. Through the inflator, the tire is inflated as usual.

7. Tubeless tire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubeless_tire

   A tubeless tire (also spelled as tubeless tyre in Commonwealth English) is a pneumatic tire that does not require a separate inner tube.. Unlike pneumatic tires which use a separate inner tube, tubeless tires have continuous ribs molded integrally into the bead of the tire that are forced by air pressure into a flange on the metal rim of the wheel, sealing the tire to the rim.
