  • Tire plug for tubeless tires
    Patent number: 4096901
    Abstract: A tire plug for a tubeless tire is disclosed which provides for a fracturable finger gripping portion and a tapered threaded portion for manual insertion of the plug into the puncture of the tire. The tapered portion exerts an increasingly compressive force on the tire wall of the puncture upon threaded insertion of the plug to seal the puncture, and the finger gripping portion is severed from the plug after the puncture has been sealed.
