Guidelines for Tire Patching
Not all tire damage is repairable. Knowing when a tire can be safely patched or when it needs replacement is key to ensuring vehicle safety. Here’s a quick guide:
Can Be Patched:
- Punctures in the Tread Area: Damage less than 1/4 inch in diameter within the tread can typically be repaired with a patch and plug combination.
- Small Cuts or Holes: Similar small damages in the tread are often patchable if they do not affect the tire's internal structure.
Cannot Be Patched:
- Large Holes or Cuts: Any damage larger than 1/4 inch generally compromises the tire's structure too much for safe repair.
- Sidewall Damage: Punctures or cuts in the sidewall cannot be patched due to high failure risks from flexing.
- Damage to the Tire Shoulder: The area where the tread meets the sidewall also cannot be safely patched.
- Multiple Close Punctures: Punctures closer than 16 inches can weaken the tire's structure excessively.
- Previously Poor Repairs: Tires with multiple or poorly done repairs may not be suitable for further patching.
Always consult a tire repair professional to assess damage and determine the best course of action. Regular tire inspections can help catch issues early and ensure your tires remain safe.
