FAQs

How many patches are included in a pack?

Each pack contains 5 patch strips.

What are the dimensions of each patch strip?

Each patch strip measures 155mm x 95mm.

Can these patches be used on tubeless tires?

No, these patches are designed for use with inner tubes only.

Do I need to use glue with these patches?

These patches are typically self-adhesive, but it's recommended to clean the tube surface and roughen it for optimal adhesion. Some kits may require glue; follow the instructions.

How long should I apply pressure to the patch?

Apply firm pressure for several minutes to ensure a good seal.

What should I do if the patch doesn't seal immediately?

Check for any debris or moisture under the patch. Reapply the patch or use a new one, ensuring proper surface preparation.

How long will a patched inner tube last?

A properly applied patch can last for a long time. However, it's a good idea to inspect the patch regularly.

Troubleshooting

Patch is not sealing properly.

Ensure the inner tube surface is clean and roughened. Apply firm pressure to the patch during application. Check for any air leaks around the edges after inflation.

Patch is peeling off after application.

Make sure the inner tube is clean and dry before applying the patch. Use a proper adhesive (if required) and allow sufficient time for it to cure. Ensure the patch is pressed firmly against the tube.
