FAQs
What tire sizes does this inner tube fit?
This inner tube is suitable for tire sizes including 145x70-6, 145x7.00-6, 4.00x5.00-6, 700-6, 400-6, and 5.30/4.50-6.
What type of valve does this inner tube have?
It features a bent Schrader valve, which is the standard car-type valve.
Is this inner tube compatible with all 6-inch wheels?
It is designed for 6-inch wheel rims, but it is crucial to confirm your specific tire size compatibility before purchase.
Which lawnmower brands is this tube primarily for?
This inner tube is specifically mentioned as being suitable for Countax and Westwood Lawnmowers.
How do I check for leaks?
After installation, inflate the tire to the recommended pressure and apply soapy water to the tube and valve area. Bubbles will indicate a leak.
Can I use this tube if my current valve is straight?
Yes, as long as the tire size and rim diameter are correct. The valve type (bent vs. straight) is a matter of convenience for inflation access.
Troubleshooting
Inner tube loses air rapidly after installation
Check for any pinches or damage to the inner tube that may have occurred during installation. Ensure the tire bead is properly seated on the rim all the way around. Inspect the rim for any sharp edges or debris. Verify the valve stem is securely seated and not leaking.
Difficulty inflating the tire
Ensure the pump connector is firmly attached to the bent Schrader valve. The bent nature of the valve might require a specific angle for connection. Try a different inflation tool if problems persist.
Uneven tire wear or vibration
This could indicate improper installation or incorrect tire pressure. Re-check the tire seating and inflate to the manufacturer's recommended pressure. Ensure the wheel is balanced if the issue is severe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This inner tube is designed to be installed within a tire mounted on a 6-inch wheel rim. Ensure the tire is compatible with the inner tube's size range (145x70-6, 145x7.00-6, 4.00x5.00-6, 700-6, 400-6, 5.30/4.50-6). Professional installation by a tire shop or experienced individual is recommended to avoid damage during fitting.
Compatibility: Primarily intended for Countax and Westwood Lawnmowers. Always verify your mower's tire and wheel rim size before purchasing.
Care: After installation and initial inflation, check the tire pressure regularly. The bent valve allows for easy access with a standard Schrader valve pump or gauge. Avoid over-inflation. Inspect the valve stem periodically for any signs of wear or damage.
