Product Information

Full details

The Airman ResQ Pilot Roadside Tyre Repair Kit is designed for owners of compact and small cars, as well as trailers, who need a reliable solution for tire punctures. Its key benefit is a powerful compressor and advanced Partikel-Geltechnologie sealant that offers a high-value tire repair. A minor caveat is that some users may prefer the valve-through sealant application for speed, though the valve-out method is also effective.

FAQs

What types of tire damage can this kit repair?

The Airman tire sealant is designed for sealing tire damage caused by punctures from objects like nails or screws. It is not intended for large gashes or sidewall damage.

Is the sealant safe for my wheels?

Yes, the Airman tire sealant does not cause rust or corrosion on wheel rims.

How long does the sealant last after application?

The sealant provides a high-value tire repair, allowing you to drive to a repair shop. For long-term use, a professional tire repair or replacement is recommended.

Can I use this kit on larger vehicles like SUVs or trucks?

This kit is ideal for compact and small car classes and trailers. For larger vehicles, a more robust repair kit might be necessary.

Is the sealant harmful to the environment?

No, the sealant is biodegradable and can be easily washed off with water.

What is the difference between valve-out and valve-through sealant application?

Valve-out requires removing the valve insert before injecting sealant. Valve-through allows direct injection into the tire without removing the valve insert.

Will using this sealant affect my Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)?

No, the Airman tire sealant is TPMS-compatible.

Troubleshooting

Compressor not turning on

Ensure the compressor is properly plugged into a working 12V power outlet. Check the vehicle's fuse for the power outlet.

Sealant not injecting into the tire

For valve-out application, ensure the valve insert has been completely removed. For valve-through, ensure a secure connection between the sealant bottle and the valve stem.

Tire not inflating after using sealant

Check for blockages in the compressor hose or valve stem. Ensure the compressor is running at full power and connected to a stable power source.

Sealant appears to be leaking

The sealant may not be effective for larger punctures or sidewall damage. Drive slowly and directly to a tire repair professional. For smaller punctures, ensure the sealant has had adequate time to work and the tire is properly inflated.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective and high-quality tire repair technology.
  • Environmentally conscious with biodegradable sealant.
  • Protects vehicle rims from damage.
  • Compatible with modern TPMS systems.
  • Compact and convenient for smaller vehicles.

Cons

  • Primarily suited for compact and small car classes.
  • Valve-out sealant application requires an additional tool (valve extractor).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the kit, connect the compressor to your vehicle's power outlet (e.g., 12V socket). For valve-out sealant application, remove the valve insert from the tire using a valve extractor, then connect the sealant bottle to the valve stem and squeeze the sealant into the tire. Reinstall the valve insert. For valve-through application, connect the sealant bottle directly to the valve stem. Once sealant is in, attach the compressor hose to the tire valve and inflate the tire to the recommended pressure. Store all components back in the provided transport bag.

Compatibility: This kit is ideal for vehicles of the compact and small car class and trailers. The sealant is TPMS-compatible.

Care: The sealant is biodegradable and can be washed off with water from the tire, skin, or surfaces. Ensure the compressor and other components are kept clean and dry. Periodically check the sealant expiration date if applicable.
