Leaking Dubro wheells

Postby barrie burton » July 21st, 2015, 8:12 am

Me,again,I have many sets of Dubro inflatable wheels,problem is they all leak.They leak from the valve,around the valve and the occasional puncture.I am too tight to throw them away.I have tried injecting the fluid used to seal punctures in car tyres,no luck.Is there an expanding rubber type foam that I can inject into the tyre?

Allan,I have tried that,the problem is getting the fluid into the tyre via the inflater.It then has to seal everything,yet still allow inflation,via the valve.I was hoping for an expanding spongy foam to fill the space where the air was,but still be bouncy.

Peter,I have not tried cavity foam,I assume that it would collapse on impact,I was hoping for an expanding rubber foam.I think that I will have to keep waiting.
