How much CO2 does it take to fill a 29er?

One 16 gram cartridge is enough to fill an average 29″ tire. I just tested in my Schwalbe Rocket Ron 29×2. 25, and from empty it gets to about 38 psi. I run tubeless, so normal pressure at my 110kg weight is around 35-38psi.

How many CO2 cartridges does it take to fill up a tire?

It depends on the size of the tire. For example, for a standard ATV tire, one 16 gram cartridge can fill a fully flat tire to 3 psi. For a standard dirt bike tire, one 16 gram cartridge can fill a fully flat tire to about 15 psi.

How many bike tires can a CO2 tank fill?

CO2 inflators depend on small metal canisters (also called cartridges) filled with compressed CO2. You want to be sure to get the right size cartridge for your tire size. Smaller ones will fill a single road tire. The larger ones can fill two tires.

How much PSI does a 12 gram CO2 cartridge have?

Cartridges come in different sizes – 12g, 16g or 25g. The smaller ones are designed for filling tires up to about 90 PSI. The larger ones are designed for filling tires up to 120+ PSI. This corresponds to lower pressure tubes such as clinchers (typically 90-120PSI) and tubular’s (140-170 PSI) such as race wheels.

Can I bring a CO2 cartridge on an airplane?

Each cylinder must not exceed 50 ml (equivalent to 28 g carbon dioxide cartridge). May be carried in checked baggage only. *Though allowed in carry-on baggage and checked baggage under U.S. and international hazardous materials regulations, TSA security rules allow these cartridges in checked baggage only.

How much PSI is in a cartridge of CO2?

The general standard is that when CO2 reaches 70 degrees Fahrenheit, the gas obtains a pressure of around 852.8 psi when contained in the cylinder or vessel. If there is more CO2 in the cylinder, it will then be converted into a liquid form.

How many times can you use a CO2 cartridge?

I can tell you that one 12 gram CO2 cartridge can deliver as few as 30 shots to as many as 200 shots from an airgun.
