Emergency Colby Valve Stem Replacement (Black) for Urgent Situations

pigra: Valve stem was ripped off in 125 degree desert with no cell signal and nobody around. I was able to drive home after 15 minutes (2 to install valve and 13 to inflate).

Nobody in their right mind would NOT have a few of these in their toolbox, every other option for a damaged stem costs at least 300$ or involves putting on a spare which could also get damaged so you'd be stuck anyway.

I'm buying some for all my cars, what a great product. I should say the valve stem has been installed 6k miles so far with no leaks, when I buy new tires I'll keep it on, its better than what they give you at the store.

Douglas Clark: This external installed valve and stem was exactly what I needed. I just cut off the leaking valve and easily installed this assembly. It is working great! Thank you.

GA: There are times when having this decice saves you inordinate amounts of time and money. If that's you, get some and keep them where they are likely needed the most. (Such as compartment on your ATV and tractor.)

Jason J: I know others who have gotten out of the woods and to a tire repair shop without changing to the spare. This fits and is used for a temporary fix for a broken valve stem. I hope to not have to use them but it’s better to have in your repair kit than not.

John Alloway: I would have given this item a perfect 5 of 5 but installing on a 1992 five-star pony wheel was a bear.
The pointy butterfly was painful to my fingers, even wearing Lether gloves.
And the butterfly's wear just scrapping the inner lip of the rim.
I would make an additional item or modification in getting ride of the butterflies for a hex head.
Would I buy this again, YES. I had a boy wash my car with a broom and he busted of the valve stems. Later when I was trying to get the car to the shop for repairs, I was trying to figure out how I could fix this when I found this awesome product. They held air for 27 miles at 55mph. great product otherwise.

jon: These are very well made. I had questions on a forum and the owner signed up and answered them all.
I’d highly recommend these as an emergency part to keep in any vehicle, off road or ATV or whatever you have.
Easy, easy to install.

Mitchell Lunge: Awesome pice of kit to add to my tire repair kit on my RZR 1000s side by side. I have destroyed a tire valve that was sliced off by a rock. This unit got me back on the trail within minutes. Very satisfied.

Nicolas D.: Nous faisons beaucoup de sentiers et de "overlanding" ... j'ai déjà dépanner un copain avec , ça fonctionne très bien et plutôt résistant pour un truc "d'urgence seulement " ... je recommande fortement

Patrick: Used on a ATV tire, the stem had deteriorated, and as anyone who has delt with older ATV tires knows trying to break the bead without destroying the tire or creating a bead leak is impossible. Put these in and problem solved.

Anna Y: I don't usually bother with product reviews, but this one was such an enormous help! A corroded valve stem came off with the cap when I tried to add air to the tire, and my tire went completely flat. I can fix a lot of things -- from my roof to my dishwasher, but I've never had much luck with auto repair: I don't have the muscle to use hand tools on a car (I have to jump up and down on the wrench to even loosen a lug nut), and no garage means no extensive collection of specialized power tools which could compensate. The alley where I park is not entirely paved, so even positioning a jack is not easy or safe. Add in cold or rainy weather (meaning numb fingers and slippery mud), and I can *maybe* install new windshield wipers... There was NO way I could have done a traditional valve replacement, even a temporary one to limp the car to a repair shop. I tried walking to the one auto parts store within reach, but they had nothing to offer that would do the trick.

These valve stems really seemed too good to be true, but my only other option was getting a tow truck and that's NOT cheap (and getting one to where I live is also not a simple proposition, either). So I ordered them...
