Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between PB-5 and PB-5-HC patches?
PB-5 patches use cold chemical vulcanization with PREMA Ultra Fast Dry cement for room temperature curing within 2-4 hours typically. PB-5-HC requires heat vulcanization equipment with PREMABOND HC cement and won't cure chemically, making PB-5 ideal for shops without heat-cure equipment.
Can these patches be used on radial tires?
No, PB-5 patches are specifically engineered for bias-ply tire construction with fabric reinforcement layers. For radial tires, you must use PREMA's radial-specific repair units that match the steel belt construction and flex patterns of radial tires to ensure proper adhesion and durability.
How much area does each patch cover?
Each patch covers a 4.75 x 4.75 inch square area (121 x 121 mm), providing complete coverage for injuries up to this size when properly centered. The actual repairable injury size depends on your specific tire type and PREMA's repair chart guidelines for safe repair limits.
Do I need special equipment for installation?
No heat equipment is required for PB-5 patches. You'll need standard tire repair tools including buffing equipment, cleaning solutions, and PREMA Ultra Fast Dry cement for the cold vulcanization process. The chemical cure happens at room temperature, eliminating the need for expensive heat-cure chambers.
