Product Information
Full details
The CushCore 44mm Tubeless Air Valves are essential for mountain bikers who utilize CushCore tire inserts to enhance ride quality and protection. These valves are designed to provide a consistent, unobstructed path for air and sealant, effectively solving the common issue of valve blockages often encountered with traditional stems. While they are precision-engineered to work flawlessly with CushCore systems, users should verify their rim depth to ensure the 44mm length is appropriate for their specific wheelset.

FAQs
Are these valves compatible with non-CushCore inserts?
Yes, the T-shaped design benefits any tubeless setup where inserts might obstruct the valve, though they are specifically optimized for CushCore.
What is the length of these valves?
This specific model features a 44mm stem length.
Can I use these on carbon rims?
Yes, the tapered rubber collar is safe for use on both aluminum and carbon fiber rims.
Do I need special tools to install them?
No special tools are required for installation; however, a valve core tool is recommended for removing the core during sealant maintenance.
Are these valves sold as a pair?
CushCore valves are typically provided as a set to accommodate both the front and rear wheels of a mountain bike.
Troubleshooting
Air is leaking from the valve base
Ensure the rubber collar is seated flat against the rim and tighten the locknut slightly by hand.
Difficulty injecting sealant
Ensure the valve core is fully removed using a valve core tool and clear any dried sealant from the internal stem using a small wire.
Airflow is restricted when pumping
Check that the tire insert is correctly positioned inside the tire and not bunched directly against the valve entrance.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents airflow blockages caused by tire inserts
- Durable CNC-machined aluminum construction
- Easy sealant application via removable core
- Secure, leak-free seating on most rims
Cons
- Specific 44mm length may not fit deep-section rims
- Slightly heavier than standard plastic-base valves
- Requires proper installation torque to avoid overtightening
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by inserting the valve through the rim hole and tightening the locknut by hand until the rubber base is firmly seated. Avoid using tools to overtighten the nut, as this can compress the rubber collar and lead to premature failure. These valves are compatible with most tubeless-ready mountain bike rims and are optimized for use with any generation of CushCore tire inserts. For maintenance, periodically check that the valve core is tightened securely and ensure the rubber base is free of dried sealant buildup to maintain an airtight connection. When replacing sealant, always use a dedicated valve core tool to remove the core to avoid damaging the threads.
