Ive always used regular screws in an emergency. But honestly for a nail type puncture a sheet metal screw even works long term. Add a little rubber cement and its good to go.

"IF" it would've occurred to me at the time, I would've grabbed my bit kit and cordless drill. 30 seconds later the repair would be done.(But I probably wouldn't have thought about it until it was done, just like you did it!)🙃

I carry a small box of these on my motorcycle. If I have to use one to get out of trouble, great, then off to a motorcycle shop for a new tire. Informed motorcycle cycle riders don't ride on repaired tires unless absolutely necessary to get home. kk

The plastic screws have a coating that is a sealer.
@jimtownsend78992 күн бұрын
It looks like the screw has a heat-activated cement coating. Driving the screw into the tire would create sufficient heat through friction to activate the cement. As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I said to myself, “What a great idea! Why didn’t they think of that before?”

These last, on average, about 8 days then they pop out or start to leak. I’ll do an updated video soon. They are a temporary fix to get you to a tire shop where the tire can be permanently patched.

Rubber screes are The best instead of using a plug and ceiment glue would be dry and hard
@williamBryan-k2e4 ай бұрын
I like the plugs better. the 'glue' is usually a vulcanization product. the plug is fibers and rubber. so when you plug, the plug becomes part of the tire. To me - that sounds better.

Letting trolls thrive on youtube. The wear-bars aren't showing so the tread has life left. If you insist on new tires, write a check every month. Same for your new car, it is "used" after one month. Insisting on new everything leads to excessive waste.
@jublywubly7 ай бұрын
These are a really bad idea! For a screw in the tyre, like that, you'd be better off leaving the screw there, until you can get if fixed. Also, that tyre should be put on the back, so it's not used for steering, if/when it bursts. Even better is to use your spare tyre. Either way, a plastic screw is only a very temporary solution. You'll have to drive slowly and ensure the tyres don't heat up too much. The centrifugal force of the spinning tyre will increase the air pressure against the hole in the tyre. The rubber will heat up at a different rate to the screw, because it's made from different compounds and it's in direct contact with the road.

They are a temporary fix. A 3-minute fix instead of having to change a tire on the side of the road. I’ll use them as a temporary fix until I can get to a tire shop. No, it’s not a long term solution.
