The air retention test helps determine the inflation pressure loss rate resulting from air diffusion through the structures of tubeless tires under constant temperature conditions.
Inflation pressure retention is an important property of tire performance because underinflation can adversely affect tire rolling resistance, handling, structural integrity and tread life.
The test is done in compliance with ASTM-F1112(a).
