Construction & Design
The WheelFlip Wheel Silicone is made from a high-grade Dow Corning 732 formulation, known for its reliability and ease of use. Its smooth, gel-like consistency allows for precise application without excess mess or waste. The silicone's flexible nature ensures it adapts to the wheel's surface, creating a tight, uniform seal that resists cracking or shrinking over time. Designed for quick drying, it forms a reliable barrier that supports efficient tire mounting and dismounting processes.
The product's design emphasizes user convenience, with a formulation that is easy to cut and apply with standard tools or even by hand. Its resistance to environmental factors ensures that the seal remains intact during vehicle operation, providing peace of mind for daily drivers and performance enthusiasts alike.
Performance & Sound
While the primary focus of the WheelFlip Wheel Silicone is sealing performance, users can expect a dependable, airtight seal that helps maintain consistent tire pressure and reduces the likelihood of leaks. Its quick-drying nature allows for rapid turnaround times, especially useful in emergency situations or time-sensitive events. The silicone's flexibility and durability contribute to long-term performance, ensuring your wheels stay sealed under various driving conditions.
Installation & Fitment
The application process for the WheelFlip Wheel Silicone is straightforward and designed for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. Simply clean the wheel rim and tire bead area thoroughly before applying the silicone. Use a caulking gun or squeeze tube to apply a uniform bead of silicone around the wheel's sealing surface. Once applied, allow the silicone to cure for the recommended time—typically 4 to 12 hours depending on environmental conditions—before mounting the tire or driving the vehicle. No cutting, drilling, or special tuning is required, making this an easy, hassle-free solution for sealing wheels.
