Feeling worried due to the unfortunate instances of a tyre puncture while on the go? Of course, you must have felt the stress. The consistent innovations in tyre technology have come up with several innovations, and the latest among them is Puncture Guard Tyres from JK Tyre. These tubeless radial car tyres can heal a puncture hole or crack on their own, thereby eliminating the requirement of visiting a tyre shop to repair a puncture hole.
How does JK Tyre Puncture Guard Tyres heal puncture holes itself?
Let us suppose that you are driving your car equipped with JK Puncture Guard tyres, and one of the tyres got pierced with a sharp object like a nail or a screw. In usual circumstances, the sharp object causes gradual air leakage from the puncture hole. However, in the case of the JK Puncture Guard tyre, a thick coating of puncture-proof sealant is present inside it.
If you pull out the sharp object which penetrated the tyre, the puncture-proof sealant fills up the damaged hole or crack inside the tyre and freezes it. It results in immediate repairing of the puncture hole without the need for external help. Even after this repair, a JK Tyre Puncture Guard tyre continues to perform as excellently as a tyre that has not sustained a puncture.

Key pointers to keep in mind for the JK Tyre Puncture Guard tyres

- The JK Tyre Puncture Guard tyres offer anti-puncture technology, but they are not puncture-proof tyres. The puncture-proof sealant within these tyres can repair puncture holes only up to 6mm in diameter.
- Unlike other tubeless tyres, JK Tyre Puncture Guard tyres do not require puncture plugs, as the sealant within them seals the puncture hole or cracks on its own.
- The JK Tyre Puncture Guard tyres can sustain only those puncture holes at least 1.5 inches apart from each other.
- The puncture holes on the sidewalls of the JK Tyre Puncture Guard tyres cannot be healed, as the puncture-proof sealant is present only in the tread portion of these tyres.
- For repairing the tyre, you need to pull the sharp object penetrating the tyre first.
