Caffelatex 1000ml Tire Sealant: Cafflatex is a truly innovative tire sealant: the first of its advantages over standard latex-based sealants comes from a foaming agent (Actifoam), activated by wheel movement. Centrifugal force drives standard latex-based sealants against the outer circumference of the tyre. Cafflatex foaming action causes it to fill the tire's entire internal cavity, making it much more effective against sidewall punctures.
Fast Sealing Action Its fast sealing action makes Caffélatex ideal for MTB and road tubeless, tubular and standard tires: it repairs punctures up to 6mm (mtb) and 3mm (road).
Long Life and Highly Stable Thanks to its formula Caffélatex is a very stable and durable sealant, but we know this is highly depending on kind of application and external conditions. During our field-testing it has lasted over 12 months in thick-casing tubeless tires on UST wheels. Nevertheless, in the impossibility of knowing our customers' specific application (kind of wheel/tire set-up, tire sidewall thickness and porosities, external temperature and humidity, bicycle storage conditions...), we recommend checking Caffélatex every 2 months, to make sure it's liquid and therefore retains its 'puncture preventive' action.
When dry, Caffélatex-sealed wheels are still air-tight, but Caffélatex won't actively repair punctures.
100% Tire and Rim Friendly Containing no ammonia, Caffélatex is 100% tire & rim friendly. CaffeLatex will not corrode the rims, which is a typical problem with other sealants. For more information you can read Lennard Zinn's article tire sealant corrosion of rims.
Usage and storage temperatures: from very cold to very hot, exceeding by far those of first-generation latex sealants (usage: -20/+50°C ~ storage: -15/ +30°C).
Recommended quantities: 50 ml (1,75 oz.) for road tubeless tires or mtb up to 26x2.10/29x2.00, 100 ml (2,50 oz.) for mtb tires over 26x2.10/29x2.00.
Available in: bottles (1000 or 250 ml) or bundled into Caffélatex Tubeless Conversion Kits.
Caffelatex has been developed for Tubeless, Tubeless-Ready and TNT (Tube No Tube) and 2Bliss mountain bike tires, manufactured according to USTstandards.
