- Bicycle Valve Stem Types. There are three types of bicycle valve stems in use: Schrader, Presta and Woods/Dunlop. The Woods or Dunlop valve stem style is much more rare than the other two. Any wheel rim that fits a Schrader valve can also fit a Woods or Presta valve.

Valve Types Gate valves. Linear motion valves used to start and stop flow. The valve is completely opened when the disk is removed from the flow stream. Classification of gate valves is made by the type of disk used: solid wedge, flexible wedge, split wedge, or parallel disk.

Valve Gate Rising stem/outside screw and yoke construction retains stem threads outside the valve. Rising stem/outside screw and yoke construction is recommended where high temperatures, corrosives, and solids in the line might damage stem threads inside the valve.

Valve Guide Reconditioning Chrome prevents the stem from galling when cast iron guides are used, and it helps prevent positive valve seal wear on intake valves. If the chrome is ground off and the valve stem is not replated, it must be used with either a bronze liner or guide.nadequate lubrication may be caused by oil starvation in the upper valve train due to low oil pressure, obstructed oil passages, push rods, etc. Lack of oil can cause stem scuffing, rapid stem and guide wear, possible valve sticking and ultimately valve failure due to poor seating and overheating.

Tire The valve stem is a tube made of metal or rubber, through which the tire is inflated, with a check valve, typically a Schrader valve on automobiles and most bicycle tires, or a Presta valve on high-performance bicycles.Valve stems usually protrude through the wheel for easy access.hen a wheel and tire rotate, they exert a centrifugal force on the axle that depends on the location of their center of mass and the orientation of their moment of inertia. This is referred to as balance, imbalance, or unbalance.

Unusually tall Schrader valve stem with valve core. A Schrader valve advertisement in the journal Horseless Age, 1918.chrader valves are used in a wide variety of compressed gas and pressurized liquid applications. Presta valve stems are 6 mm diameter, whereas Schrader valve stems for bicycle tires are 8 mm, thus requiring a larger diameter hole in a bicycle rim.

- Bike Parts and Components. Both complex and critical, the rear derailleur is arguably the most important component on a bicycle. When working properly, shifting gears is smooth and seamless. But when out of tune, the rear derailleur becomes the bane of a cyclist’s existence. RULES OF REPLACEMENT. When considering replacing a rear derailleur, there are three essential concepts to understand and consider in order to be able to choose wisely. These are “total capacity,” “max sprocket,” and “compatibility.

Control valves Globe valves, check valves, safety valves, control valves, etc designed for gaseous oxygen service. These valves are made of suitable materials and have specific features such as extended stem and remote handwheel for installation behind a barrier, throttling plug, etc. They are mainly used in steel plants.

Valve stem (August 2009). A valve stem is a self-contained valve which opens to admit gas to a chamber (such as air to inflate a tire), and is then automatically closed and kept sealed by the pressure in the chamber, or a spring, or both, to prevent the gas from escaping.n 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.

- In the past, sports and racing bicycles used Presta valves because they are slender and enabled racers to inflate tires with a simple pump with attached chuck (pump head) and no hose. Presta valves are easier to pump than Schrader, because they have no valve spring to overcome.

Bicycle Valve Stem Types Schrader valves, seen on mountain bikes, kids’ bikes and all types of casual riding bikes, are the same valve type you will see on automobile tires. The valve body is shorter than that of a Presta, and the depressible pin sits inside the valve stem rather than on top of it.

- Presta valves do require less effort during inflation because there is no spring holding the valve closed as with Schraeder valves. They are better at holding the higher pressures found in road tires, and less prone to leaking. It is important to remember that the types of bike tire tube stem can affect robustness. A presta valve is much more fragile than a Schraeder valve and therefore extreme care must be taken during filling so that it does not get snapped off.

- Thank you for purchasing a Dimension™ stem. It is recommended that a professional bicycle mechanic install your Dimension™ threadless stem, especially if you do not have access to a torque wrench. If you have any questions concerning the installation, contact a professional bicycle mechanic for assistance.

Types of Bicycle Tire Pumps Gas. Some cyclists prefer to use gas cylinders to pump up tires. This type of pump is the smallest of all the pumps and will fit into any small pack on the bike. The gas cylinder fits inside a small housing. The housing attaches to the bike's valve and then a small trigger is used to discharge the gas into the tube.
