Tire Repair Strings - Rubber-Impregnated Puncture Repair Kit for Off-Road Equipment
These KEX tire repair strings provide reliable puncture sealing for non-highway tires using butyl rubber construction. Each 4-inch brown string creates repairs through vulcanization technology, making this 50-piece kit suitable for shops, farms, and equipment maintenance operations.

Butyl Rubber Construction - Built with butyl rubber material for durability, allowing insertion through steel-belted radial tires without breaking or fraying during installation.
50-Count Bulk Packaging - This box contains 50 tire repair strings, suitable for automotive shops and equipment operators who handle multiple puncture repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do these tire repair strings compare to mushroom plugs?
Tire repair strings install faster than mushroom plugs because they don't require tire removal from the rim or inside access. Strings are preferred for quick field repairs on farm and construction equipment where downtime must be minimized. Mushroom plugs provide permanent highway-rated repairs with patch backing for road vehicles.
Can these be used on highway vehicle tires?
No, these tire repair strings are designed only for non-highway applications like farm equipment, construction machinery, and shop vehicles. Highway tires require DOT-compliant patch-plug combination repairs that meet federal safety standards for road use. Consult a tire professional for proper highway tire repairs.
What tools do I need to install these string plugs?
You need a tire repair kit with reaming tool to clean the puncture, insertion needle to push the string through, and utility knife for trimming excess material. After installation, check tire pressure and re-inflate as needed. These strings are compatible with most common tire repair tool kits.
How long do tire string repairs typically last?
When properly installed in non-highway applications, repairs last weeks to months depending on operating conditions. Longevity varies with puncture hole size, operating speed, load weight, and temperature exposure. The vulcanization creates strong seals, but monitor tire pressure regularly and schedule permanent repairs when possible.
