Why choose our services?
Our technicians at D& R Tyres try to salvage the tyre as much as possible, but we do not perform repairs on tyres with extreme damage as we do not take our customer's driving safety lightly. Therefore, our team first conducts a few checks to ensure your car tyres fulfil certain necessary conditions to qualify for a repairable puncture repair.
Our checklist includes:
- Tyre tread depth to be a minimum of 1.6 mm.
- There should not be any exposed cords.
- There should be no major damages to the tyre sidewalls.
- The damaged portion of the tyre must not be more than 6 mm.
- Previous tyre repairs should follow the BS AU 159 standards and regulations.
If the punctured tyres meet these requirements, we will proceed with the puncture repair process.
How do we conduct puncture repairs?
There are three widely practised puncture repair methods that we employ at our facility:
- Plugging
- Patching
- Plug and patch
Our technicians use the following steps to perform a puncture repair as per BS AU 159 guidelines:
- We will first unmount the punctured tyre and carry out some checks, following which we will mark the impacted area.
- After that, we will make a puncture channel from inside and outside the tyre using a 6 mm carbide mill cutter.
- Following this, we will clean the damaged portion with a pre-buff cleaner, put the patch in its position and draw its outline on the inner line. Then, to flatten raised curbs, we will buff the inner line with a dome buffing rasp.
- After that, we will use a special vulcanising accelerator solution on the puncture channel and the buffed region.
- Next, we will insert a plug and patch combination in the puncture channel to seal the affected area. Then, with a corrugated stitcher, we will roll the reverse of the repair patch.
- After this, we will seal the buffed portion and plug and patch the region with a sealant.
- Finally, we will mount the tyre back and cut the stem of the repair patch.
- After following this process, we will fix your tyre, and your tyre will be as good as new!
