What Is the Tire Sealant and Inflator Kit
Tire Inflator and Sealant Kit
The kit consists of an air compressor to re-inflate the tire and a canister of sealing compound that will effectively seal most punctures.

Do not attempt to repair punctures larger than 0.24 in (6 mm) or damage to the tire's sidewall. The tire may not completely seal.
