forkrentfitter Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 we used to put it in all the plant where i used to work,telehandlers and jcb 3cx,well worth it in those applications but there are many brands out there some better than others.

farmerboy_y2k Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I used to have it in the tyres of my rover 400, as rover alloys are really bad for leaking air around the rim. The main con was having to listen to the tyre fitter moan he had to wash the wheel when i fitted new tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cackshifter Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Very popular on motorbikes (understandably). Works well on my wheelbarrow, which otherwise tends to leak round the rim. But yes, you have to buy it again when you change the tyre. They used to demo it by stabbing the tyre with screwdriver, and it stopped those leaks. I think Ultrasafe or similar name. It wouldn't plug a real blowout, but then again it might prevent one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeyw Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I've used OKO Z7 in the past My link. Pretty much fit and forget it seems. When I took the wheels off to replace them, there were several nails in the tread faces but no air lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bow Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 its called ultraseal, yes we stab a tyre to show you how it works, i use a 6mm bradawl to demonstrate, it does work, been using it for 8years in both my bikes and trucks, and no, never had balancing problems, nuff said by me, grabbing my coat as i leave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
