Q: Does the lubricant affect the plug's seal or durability? A: No, the lubricant is formulated specifically for tire repairs and evaporates after installation without compromising the plug's adhesion or long-term seal. It only serves to ease installation and protect the tire during the repair process. The gel does not interfere with rubber-to-rubber bonding or the plug's ability to vulcanize properly. Once the repair is complete, the lubricant leaves no residue that could weaken the repair or cause air leaks over time.

XTRA SEAL 3 oz gel lubricant bottle for tire string plug installation

Tire Repair Lubricant for String Plug Installation - XTRA SEAL (X12350, 3 oz)

Professional-Grade Gel Formula for Smooth, Accurate Tire Plug Repairs

The XTRA SEAL X12350 is a tire repair lubricant designed specifically for string-type plug installations. This 3 oz gel-based formula reduces friction between the plug, insertion tool, and tire liner, allowing technicians to place plugs accurately without damaging the tire's internal structure. The thick gel consistency stays in place during application for controlled, mess-free use.

Key Benefits of String Plug Lubricant

Prevents Internal Tire Damage - The lubricating gel creates a protective barrier that prevents the insertion tool from scraping or tearing the tire's inner liner during plug installation.

Faster, More Precise Repairs - Eliminates friction so the string plug seats exactly where needed on the first attempt, cutting adjustment time and improving repair quality.

Tool Longevity - Reduces wear on insertion tools and makes the repair process physically easier during high-volume repair days or when working with tough truck tires.

Professional tire shops performing high-volume plug repairs on passenger vehicles.
Mobile tire technicians who need reliable results in roadside or field conditions.
Fleet maintenance teams working on commercial trucks and light-duty vehicles.
