Tire Plug Repair Kits - How Do they Work ?

How do tire plug puncture repair kits work?. This demonstration shows how the kits work using views from inside a cutaway tire. These types of repair kits are designed for tubeless tires and should only be used as a temporary repair until you get to a tire shop and have it patched from the inside. I am only demonstrating how these kits work and showing what happens inside the tire as you plug it. I am not endorsing or recommending the use of any of these type of kit as a replacement for a professional or permanent tire repair. DO NOT attempt any type of tire repair if any of the following conditions exist:

• The tire has less than 1.6mm tread depth
• The puncture is greater than 1/4 inch diameter (6mm)
• There is structural damage to tread, carcass, inner liner, or bead (including cracking, bubbling, ply separation, etc.)
• The puncture is on the shoulder or sidewall of the tire
• The tire has been inflated with any flammable gas
• The perforating object cannot be located
• The perforating object is not straight indicating the puncture path is not straight
• There is little resistance is felt when inserting the repair
• There is evidence that the tire has been driven under-inflated
• There is evidence of possible structure/internal damage
