Which tyre punctures do we repair?

It is not always possible to repair a puncture. However, we have a list of parameters that we check to ensure safety and confirm that the tyre's structural integrity is unharmed so that the repair process can be initiated:

• The damaged portion must not be more than 6 mm in diameter.
• The puncture can only be repaired savely if the damage is located in the centre of the thread. Sidewall damages cannot be repaired.
• There must not be any bulges in the tyre.
• No major cracks in the tyre.
• The tyre tread depth must be at least 1.6 mm, which is the legal minimum.
• There must not be any exposed chords.
• A damage previously treated using a DIY repair kit cannot always be repaired.

Only if the punctured tyre meets all safety criteria, will we offer a puncture repair Kingswinford service. Otherwise, we will inform you about the condition and suggest a tyre replacement instead.

How do we carry out a puncture repair?

We strictly follow BS AU 159 guidelines while doing the puncture repair Kingswinford and the steps for the same are mentioned below:

• Step 1: First, we unmount the tyre/wheel assembly from the car and remove the tyre from the wheel.
• Step 2: Then we inspect the damaged area and remove any sharp object that may still be stuck in the tyre.
• Step 3: Following this, we make a puncture channel from the inside of the tyre.
• Step 4: After that, we use a pre-buff cleanser to clean the portion that is around 10mm to 20mm wider than the tyre repair patch.
• Step 5: Once done, we draw an outline by tracing the patch over it.
• Step 6: Then we buff the inner liner and apply a special solution to create a puncture channel.
• Step 7: Next, we insert the repair plug into the created channel.
• Step 8: Now, we carefully pull the plug inward to ensure that it gets attached correctly from the inside of the tyre.
• Step 9: Finally, we will cut the patch stem, fit the tyre back on the rim and mount the tyre/wheel assembly back on the vehicle.
• Step 10: We inflate the tyre with the correct air pressure.
