This guide provides useful tips for replacing valves. The valve is a component subjected to intense stresses, and although they are often overlooked, they are essential to replace.

These valves are manufactured according to a universal standard, making them compatible with caps and inflation tools. Clean the valves thoroughly and then coat them with grease or lubricant.

To remove it, carefully cut it at the base. Before operating the vehicle, check the tyre pressure to prevent damage to the valves.
