PREVENTS UNDERINFLATION FROM LOW LEAKS. GUARANTEED EFFECTIVE FOR THE LIFE OF THE TIRE. LongaTire is a chemical tire sealant that when installed inside a tire, will provide full time protection against air loss for the entire life of the tire. LongaTire is designed to seal: tread punctures, bead leaks, rim leaks, porosity and tube, tire or wheel-related leaks LongaTire has a revolutionary chemical structure that causes this enhancer to continuously remain fluid so that it will immediately fill and seal any hole (up to ¼") in the tread area where air can escape from the tire. Because of these functions, LongaTire life enhancer gives you the benefit of much longer tire life coupled with lower downtime and maintenance costs. Characteristics of Caracteristics of LongaTire This space-age product combines an ethylene-glycol based solution with natural fibers, artificial fibers, adhesion agents, drying agents, corrosion inhibitors, and other solids. LongaTire is designed to keep the fibers and solids in constant suspension. Because there is no setting of the solids and fibers, LongaTire life enhancer is always ready to work for you - no mixing, stirring, or other preparation is necessary. The adhesion properties in LongaTire life enhancer - coupled with the fact that it remains fluid when installed in the tire - provide constant protection for all parts of the tire. LongaTire life enhancer is thixotropic. That is, it thins rapidly when the motion increases, thereby maintaining an even layer of LongaTire sealant on all surfaces. LONGA-TIRE INCREASES TIRE LIFE AND BRINGS THE USER SAFETY, PROTECTION AND OTHER BENEFITS SUCH AS:
HOW DOES LONGATIRE WORK? LongaTire life enhancer easily seals holes up to ¼" in diameter. Larger holes will normally seal if they are near the center of the tread area. A puncture that occurs while driving the vehicle will seal instantly and very little air will be lost before a permanent seal is made. When the vehicle is driven, the fluid action of the solution causes the entire inside treaded surface area of the tire to be coated with LongaTire. The adhesion properties contained in LongaTire keep the solution in place at all times and keep LongaTire ready to seal any source of air loss. When a puncture occurs, the centrifugal force of the rotating tire and internal pressure forces LongaTire into the hole. A permanent seal is caused as the hole is packed with the fibers and other solids. Some of the material will go through the hole to the outside of the tire. When this material is exposed to air, it dries and forms a permanent seal. Its that simple. The tire is now protected from any puncture or other leaks for the remaining life of the tire! LongaTire life enhancer also helps to dissipate the heat caused by road friction. This allows the tire to run much cooler; as a result of proper air pressure and cooler temperatures, you can get up to 20% to 30% more life from your tire. LongaTire life enhancer is installed quickly and easily through the valve stem. The average installation time is just minutes per tire!
