Nice video.... attended a training this week end , a 70 yo lady managed to fix a tyre Overinflate the tyre, the steel wiring is not so tight . It really renders the exercise effortless Rather than screwing action , yanking the reamer in and out is more efficient High pressure gets those plugs in without breaking a sweat

Thanks mate..great info.. Just watched another similar video & great tip there was to first rotate tyre so puncture site is easily accessed and you can put downward pressure /body weight into plug insertion. Front tyre easier of course to reposition with steering- depending on puncture site access esp back tyre you may still need to take off tyre in some instances..

Tried the thicker plugs, difficult to get in but worked. Then had same situation on partners car.. leaked on smaller plugs even with glue. Have now bought a set very similiar to the ARB one. Hopefully I dont have to repair another soon. Thanks for the video

Good honest video - well done. I have bought smaller plugs from Bushranger which are better for small holes in the tread like those from screws and nails - much easier to insert. I've used those plugs for 20 years, and in all honesty, I'd take it to a tyre dealer and get a mushroom plug put in for a tread puncture. But when out remote, the plug kits come into their own and a small stake in the sidewall is easily fixed until you come back to civilisation. Cheers

Done this at least 10 times with tires fully inflated and never had a problem. I believe the trick is to ream in and out a few times really good in a straight fast motion. Doing this will make the hole ready to insert the plug. When on target with the plug insert it quickly with heavy initial force and a good circular wiggle motion if necessary. That should do the trick.

I’ve struggled to insert the plug the last few times I’ve used a similar system. However they are E rated tires. I had to use a 2x4 jammed into the coil spring at the top of the wheel well to lever the plug and tool into the hole. A ratchet strap may work to help as well.

You are supposed to push and pull the tool a few times not twisting it as the hole needs to be abraded by the tool to make the hole bigger. Ta for the Vid m8.

After now doing it a handful of times, I can honestly say that the tyre is better off to be dead flat. If there is any air left just take it out. My tyre on this video was still 3/4 full of air. 👍

Dont use lubricants more recommended avoiding contamination , And take notice about the metal bands in the tyre the tool needs to be pushed in without catching them , Explanation is imagine a fork approaching a band on how to pass it you turn it side ways , glue on the sleuth will help insertion .

@RobertJLessard 2 жыл бұрын

You almost had it on attempt 1! I don't think they give good instructions. The reamer tool needs to be pulled in and out without rotating it. That's how you get a nice round hole. The plug goes in easier that way too. 👍

As long as the plug insert tool doesn't bend or break. The cheaper plug kits are made of cheaper metal and have broke a few times on me. I've been looking for one that has heavy duty hardened insert tool because if it breaks and you're on the road somewhere, you're screwed.

@Iolis 3 жыл бұрын

It is easier if you first deflate the tyre so you are not working against the internal air pressure. Screw the reamer tool in but use the serrated edges to widen the hole by pulling in and out rather than screwing it out, Lastly, cut the excess as near to the tyre as possible.

One word of caution, these are great for temporary fixes but should not be left as permanent. The best solution is a plug patch. Of course this isn’t a viable “trail repair”. Part of the reason for this is the damage to the belts that can’t be detected by just pushing a plug in. Cheers from America.
