Tire cage safety regulations

摘要

Truck tire service, especially the inflation process, can be dangerous or even fatal if not performed according to proper procedures. Due to the number of accidents associated with tire inflation, OSHA now mandates that all truck tires be inflated in an acceptable restraining device.rnThe requirements for safety cages are spelled out in OSHA standards, which define "restraining device" as "an apparatus such as a cage, rack, assemblage of bars and other components that will constrain all wheel components during an explosive separation of a multi-piece wheel or during the sudden release of the contained air of a single piece wheel."
