The Mehr 115mm Tyre Valve Extensions are designed for professional fleet managers, truck drivers, and DIY mechanics who struggle with accessing recessed or difficult-to-reach valve stems. These extensions simplify the inflation and pressure-checking process, significantly reducing maintenance time. While they provide essential reach, users must ensure the connection is tightened securely to prevent potential air leaks, and they are primarily intended for heavy-duty vehicle applications rather than standard passenger cars.

These extensions are primarily designed for truck applications; they are likely too long and cumbersome for standard passenger vehicle wheels.
No, you install the extension directly onto the existing valve stem without removing the core.
While they can attach, it is highly recommended to use these with metal valve stems to avoid excessive strain on the rubber base.
Each pack includes 10 pieces.
No, these are 115mm. If you require a longer reach, please see the Mehr 150mm or 170mm variants.
It is best practice to check the tightness of the extensions every time you perform a tyre pressure check or routine vehicle inspection.
Remove the extension, clean the threads on both the valve stem and the extension, and reinstall ensuring it is fully tightened.
Check if the internal valve pin in the extension is properly aligned with your air chuck and ensure the valve core is not depressed or stuck.
Use a small amount of thread sealant or check if a bracket can be used to anchor the extension to the rim to stabilize it.
Installation is straightforward: ensure the valve stem is clean and free of debris, then hand-tighten the extension onto the existing valve thread until it is snug. Use a wrench only if necessary, being careful not to overtighten and damage the threads. Check for leaks using a soapy water solution around the connection point after installation. For maintenance, periodically inspect the extensions during routine tyre rotations to ensure they remain tightly fixed and that the valve core inside the extension is not seized.
