Workshop Warehouse Tyre Valve Extensions – Flexible 180Mm Size 180 mm (TY241)

Description

Genuine Workshop Warehouse · Part no. TY241

Workshop Warehouse's 180 mm flexible valve extension reaches the inner valve on a twin-wheel axle, so the inside tyre can be checked and inflated without crawling under the vehicle. It suits standard rubber valve stems and is a common fit on trucks, buses, minibuses and twin-wheel vans.

Good to know

• Why do twin wheels need one? The inner wheel's valve sits behind the outer wheel, and an extension brings it out through the wheel so it can be checked at every pressure check.
• Is the valve itself worth replacing first? Rubber snap-in valves perish with age; if the old one is cracked, replace it before fitting an extension, or the leak just moves along.
• Do I still need a cap? Yes, a cap on the open end keeps dirt and water out of the valve core, though it is the core that holds the air.

Which one?

For a new rubber valve to fit first, the Workshop Warehouse Tyre Valves – Snap-In Car/Van (TY126B); for a shorter flexible reach, the 105 mm extension (TY240).
