Can this product effectively repair a tire on its own? Do I need to use sealant separately for a successful repair?
Yes, the tire plug is pre-coated with sealant on the outside, and a bake glue process is used to tightly bond the sealant to the screw. Therefore, no additional sealant is required.
Is this a permanent repair or a temporary fix?
For frequent high-speed driving, this is only a temporary roadside repair, and we recommend a professional follow-up. For slow-moving vehicles like lawnmowers, some people use them long-term.
Are these plugs made of rubber? Why do they look like metal screws? Will they cause secondary damage to the tire?
They have a metal core on the inside with a rubber coating on the outside. The metal provides grip, while the rubber creates the seal. This design forms a strong and durable seal and will not cause secondary damage to the tire.
How do I properly install the tire plug?
Tread groove position: Screw the product in until it sits 0.5 mm below the tread groove surface
Rim position: Screw it in until it is flush with the tread groove surface
Sidewall position: Screw it in until it sits 0.5 mm below the sidewall surface
How can I confirm that the tire repair is successful?
Inflate the tire, spray soapy water on the repaired area, and check for bubbles. No bubbles means the repair is complete.
