There has been a lot of misinformation about repairing Tesla tires and other EV tires with sound suppression foam. The good news is that like any other tire, sound suppression tires can be repaired. TECH developed a process for repairing sound suppression tires that adheres to the Tire Industry Association (TIA)’s guidelines for proper tire repair. What follows is an overview of the process.
We have developed a simple acronym to remember the steps of our proper tire repair process.
R: Remove the Tire From the Wheel.
E: Evaluate the Injury
P: Prepare the Injury
A: Apply Vulcanizing Fluid (a.k.a. Cement)
I: Install the Repair
R: Return the Tire to Service

I am Tech with 30yrs experience. Was curious how Tesla tires were repaired. I had to comment as this is one the clearest, comprehensive, concise videos I think I have ever watched. Kudos!

@TECHTireRepairs Год назад

We appreciate that! Thank you!

@nate1593 Год назад

This is probably one of the best explanations and training guides ive seen on RU-vid and im talking generally, really well done.

@TECHTireRepairs Год назад

Thank you! We love to share out knowledge & want to make it easy for anyone to understand!

@JP-rr5zg Год назад

Thank you for convincing me to just buy a new tire.

@TECHTireRepairs Год назад

This is a more involved process than the typical tire. But it is possible to repair and ultimately help you get the full life from your tires.

Is it possible to plug a puncture on a tire with sound-deadening foam from the outside with TECH's permacure inserts during an emergency repair? Or will the foam lining get in the way?

@nathanielweaver7078 Год назад

So for the tacky sound suppression foam, the UL6 just gets stitched to the glue from the foam after prep?

@TECHTireRepairs Год назад

That is correct... If the adhesive is tacky, then yes, the repair would be stitched directly to the adhesive. The tackiness of the adhesive will hold the repair in place. That type of adhesive can also be extremely difficult to remove in order to apply the repair to the inner liner.

@christosvolikakis1523 Год назад

She forgot to add one of the most important “non-repairable conditions” which are “bad drivers”. When I was in charge of fleet tire repair, the worst thing for sidewall damage to truck tires were new drivers - 😂

@TECHTireRepairs 4 месяца назад

While understandable; that's beyond our skill set. We can only help once the tire has been damaged and deemed repairable.

@yhnjohnkanm 10 месяцев назад

When do you use 739??

@TECHTireRepairs 4 месяца назад

You would use it to seal the edge of the repair once it was been properly stitched.

@TheMaster001 Год назад

How much is a repair like this will cost? To the customer.

@TECHTireRepairs Год назад

The price the customer could pay will vary based on shop & location.

@daarionaharis3675 Месяц назад

I asked a tire shop how they patch Tesla tires with foam. They told me they take out the entire foam liner.

@TECHTireRepairs Месяц назад

We recommend only removing the section of foam where the hole; as the foam will be getting placed back inside the tire. Seems like a lot of extra un-necessary work to remove all of it. Did they give a reason as to why they remove all of the foam?

@johnellis1952 10 месяцев назад

Sorry....you lost me when you continued to use the word 'injury' to reference 'damage' to the tire. It's unfortunate that there isn't a 'd' in 'Repair'.....but maybe you could have used a different acronym.

We thought Repair was rather clever. But tomato... tomato.

They mean the same thing..

@TECHTireRepairs Месяц назад

Don't need to do what?

@THETERPZ Год назад

We don’t repair ncs tires. I sell them all day long. All that work, does not pay in the long run if the vehicle comes back. Let romtine else take the risk.

@TECHTireRepairs Год назад

To each their own. We believe in educating everyone on the proper way to repair a tire; especially as tires continue to evolve.
