FAQs

How long does Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant V2 last?

The sealant remains liquid and effective for up to six months. However, it's recommended to check and top up the sealant every 3-6 months depending on usage.

Can I use Silca sealant with CO2 cartridges?

Yes, the formula is CO2 safe and will not coagulate during inflation.

What size punctures can Silca sealant seal?

It can seal holes up to 6mm in size.

How much sealant should I use?

Refer to the guidelines on the sealant bottle for the recommended amount based on your tyre size.

How do I add more sealant?

Remove the valve core, inject the sealant, and then re-inflate the tyre.

Is Silca sealant compatible with all tubeless tyres?

Yes, it is compatible with most tubeless tyre systems.

How do I clean up sealant spills?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap. The carbon fiber strands can be a bit tricky, so be thorough.

What's the best way to store the sealant?

Store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Sealant isn't sealing punctures effectively.

Check sealant level; add more if low. Ensure tyre pressure is correct. Inspect the tyre for larger punctures that may exceed the sealant's capacity.

Sealant is leaking from the tyre.

Check valve stem for leaks; tighten or replace the valve core. Ensure the tyre is properly seated on the rim. Inspect the tyre for cuts or damage.

Sealant appears to be drying out quickly.

Check storage conditions. Ensure the sealant is not exposed to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight. If the sealant is older than 6 months, consider replacing it.

Difficulty injecting sealant through the valve stem.

Ensure the valve core is removed. Use a sealant injector with a narrow tip. Agitate the sealant bottle before injecting.
