The tape is made of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride).
These tapes are specifically designed for 27.5" MTB wheels.
Clean the rim, center the valve hole on the rim, apply the tape evenly, overlap the ends, pierce the valve hole, and then mount your tire.
The tape can withstand pressures up to 8 bar (116 psi), but always follow the tire manufacturer's recommended pressure.
Use a mild soap and water solution to clean the tape.
Remove the tire, inspect the inner tube and the rim tape. Replace the inner tube and re-install the tape if needed. Make sure the tape covers the spoke holes completely.
Inspect the tape regularly for wear and tear, and replace it if you notice any damage or after heavy use.
No, this tape is designed specifically for 27.5" mountain bike wheels, and not suitable for road bike applications.
Check the rim tape for damage or incorrect installation. Ensure the tape covers the spoke holes completely and is properly sealed. Also, inspect the tire for any objects that may have caused the puncture.
Ensure the rim tape is correctly positioned. Apply some tire levers to help seat the tire beads over the rim. Make sure the tire size matches the rim tape size.
Ensure proper overlap during installation. Check the tape's adhesion to the rim. Replace the tape if it doesn't stay in place.

Care: Regularly inspect the tapes for any cuts, tears, or wear. Replace them if any damage is found. Use a mild soap and water solution to clean the tapes.
