Description
The SILCA Ultimate Tubeless Tire Sealant revolutionizes bike maintenance, providing an essential solution for cyclists seeking robust and reliable tire sealing. This innovative product features a unique foaming latex formula combined with chopped carbon fibers, offering enhanced sealing power, even under higher pressures. With an impressive formulation, this sealant is designed to elevate your cycling experience, whether you’re riding on mountain trails, smooth roads, or gravel paths.
One of the standout features of the SILCA sealant is its composition. It contains 5% by volume of 6, 9, and 12mm chopped carbon fibers, which are sourced from reclaimed materials such as recycled bicycles, carbon wheels, racecars, and aircraft components. This commitment to sustainability not only boosts the performance of the sealant but also showcases SILCA’s dedication to environmental responsibility.
Thanks to the foaming latex formula, the lightweight carbon fibers are evenly dispersed throughout the sealant while riding. This allows for a higher fiber content compared to conventional materials like Kevlar or fiberglass, which can’t match the performance of this advanced sealant. When a puncture occurs, the sealant flows to the hole, where the bundles of carbon fibers work their magic. Thousands of micro-bubbles collapse upon each other, depositing high-stiffness carbon fibers over the hole. This process creates an effective barrier, akin to a beaver dam that blocks water flow, ensuring that the tire remains sealed.
Sealing Capability | Seals holes up to 7.5mm, 25% larger than traditional sealants. |
Temperature Performance | Effective sealing at low temperatures (6mm holes seal at 18°F / -7°C). |
Longevity | Lasts 7-9 months depending on humidity. |
After sealing a puncture, the area of the tire is reinforced with a zone of carbon fiber-reinforced latex. This bridge helps to reduce the likelihood of future punctures in that specific area, providing an added layer of protection that outperforms other sealant additives such as cornmeal, glitter, or fiberglass. The superior sealing ability and the reinforcement capabilities of the carbon fiber mean that you can enjoy peace of mind while riding, knowing that your tires are well protected.
Overall, the SILCA Ultimate Tubeless Tire Sealant stands out in the market for its remarkable sealing capabilities, sustainability, and longevity. Whether you’re an avid mountain biker, a road cycling enthusiast, or someone who enjoys gravel rides, this sealant is an indispensable companion for your biking adventures. Choose SILCA for innovation and reliability in tire maintenance!
