What size tire repairs can this patch handle?
The 2-1/4" square PREMA PUS-3 patch is designed specifically for nail hole injuries in tire crown areas. It covers most standard nail punctures in passenger and light truck tires. The square shape provides broader coverage than round patches, creating a more secure seal around puncture damage for reliable repairs.
Do these patches work with both radial and bias-ply tires?
Yes, the PREMA PUS-3 is a universal tire patch that works on both radial and bias-ply tire construction, making it suitable for most passenger vehicles and light trucks. This universal compatibility eliminates the need to stock separate patches for different tire types, simplifying inventory management for tire shops.
What type of vulcanizing cement should I use with these patches?
PREMA recommends using their Ultra Fast Dry Vulcanizing Cement for optimal bonding with PUS-3 patches. Always fill the injury channel with appropriate repair material before applying the patch. The vulcanizing process creates a permanent chemical bond that withstands temperature changes, road stress, and tire flexing during normal vehicle operation.
How does this compare to plug-only tire repairs?
Tire patches provide a more permanent repair than plugs alone because they create a vulcanized bond across the entire damaged area. While plugs seal punctures from the inside, patches reinforce the tire structure from within, offering superior durability and longer-lasting repairs that withstand daily driving conditions and road stress.
Can these patches be used for sidewall repairs?
No, PREMA PUS-3 patches are designed exclusively for crown area repairs where the tire contacts the road. Sidewall damage typically requires tire replacement as patches cannot safely handle the constant flexing stresses that occur in sidewall areas during steering and cornering. Crown area patches provide the structural support needed for safe operation.
