Tire Repair Kit
✖ |
Stop & Go International, Inc., 3610 Thunderbird Lane, Crystal Lake, Ill. 60012 (ph 800 747-0238; www.stopngo.com): This company's new tire repair kit allows for an "on the spot" and "on the wheel" repair to virtually any tubeless tire, and it seals the puncture on the inside.
The Plugger is a spring-loaded gun that "drives" the plug into the hole. The shaft of the plug expands under pressure to fill the puncture. The mushroom head of the plug seats on the inner wall, without allowing air to escape.
The tool comes in a vinyl-zippered 6 by 9-in. pouch and weighs just under 2 lbs. Included is the plug gun, nozzle, probe tool, reamer/rasp tool, retractable blade, and 25 rubber mushroom plugs that measure 5/16 in. in diameter and long, along with detailed instructions.
Sells for $43.95 plus S&H. An extra bag of plugs sells for $7.50 plus S&H.
The company also offers a Pocket Tire Plugger that installs mushroom-shaped rubber plugs into all tubeless tires while still on the wheel. The Plugging device "drives" the plug into the hole with the turning of a hex wrench. The plug expands under pressure to fill the punctured area. A firm pull of the stem with a pliers seats the mushroom head on the inner wall, allowing no air to escape.
Sells for $31.95 plus S&H.
