Autogem TPMS Rubber Valve (TPK16101)

Description

Genuine Autogem · Part no. TPK16101

The Autogem TPMS Rubber Valve (TPK16101) is a snap-in rubber valve for tyre pressure sensors that use a rubber stem. It is sold by application, so one part number covers several vehicles depending on make, model and year, and it replaces a valve that has perished, cracked or been damaged.

Good to know

• How is a rubber TPMS valve different from a metal one? It pulls through the rim hole and seals by the rubber's grip, like an ordinary tyre valve, while a metal clamp-in stem bolts through with a nut; check which valve type your sensor takes.
• How do I fit it? With the tyre off, attach it to the sensor the way the old one was, lubricate the rubber with tyre fitting paste and pull it through the rim with a valve tool, keeping the sensor square to the rim.
• Why do rubber valves fail? Rubber ages and cracks with sun, ozone and heat, so a valve that looked fine at the last tyre change can leak now; renewing it with every new tyre is the safe habit.

Which one?

For the other Autogem rubber valve design, see TPK21101; for sensors with a metal clamp-in stem, a kit such as the Autogem TPMS Metal Valve Stem Kit (TPK05201) instead.
