CANADA GUYS:
Just a heads up the 3M PR40 can be hard to find/expensive in Canada. Any of the 3M PR series glues work just fine and one maybe easier/cheaper to come by(pr40, pr100, pr600, pr1500). The only difference in those glues is the thickness. So with the PR1500 it's more gel like vs water so you will need to make sure to squeeze out the excess.
*********
Thoughts:
Total cost to repair was around 0.50cents of glue. $15 for entire bottle that'll do 30-40 of these large repairs. You can buy a kit(linked above) but I do not know if they have cord reinforced patch material(I don't have anything to do with the company that makes it). I tried for hours to tear this patch off while playing around. I even dropped the pressure from 6.5psi to around 5 to really flex the sidewall and have more contact. I hit rocks, ledges, drove through ice halfway up the rim and high speed turns and nothing harmed it. I inflated it to 30psi before installing just to see if I could stretch/pull the patch off; nope. This is on there permanently and you will destroy the tire before it ever comes off. You could also put a patch on the inside was well or even a typical rubber patch just to make sure air didn't push but I don't think that is necessary. I do think a product like Tire-Ject that I did a video on would be an excellent addition to make these tires bullet proof. Tire-Ject: amzn.to/3JGJ8sI VIDEO on it: • Permanently Fix Flat A...

During WW2, tire rationing meant we had to repair holes. We used "blowout patches" put on the inside with rubber cement and the tube, when pressurized, held the patch against the inside tire wall. When the tire became bald, we regrooved the contact surface. Also, we recapped the tread using heat. I remember the vulcanizing. The tube patches were sometimes vulcanized. The tube patch had a metal dish with a sulfur material held down on the tube with a jig. A match lit the sulfur and the heat melted the patch into the tube. The glue you showed would have been a miracle back then. Also, we took the tire off the rim without removing the wheel. After military service, I came back and worked for The Armstrong Rubber Co. that made All-State tires, too. Tire building from start to finish was very interesting. Loved this You Tube video.
You weren't changing tires during ww2. At least I'm not the only one that thinks the majority of people stupid.
@@markcobb6561 Some people are in their 90s.
Finally somebody who:
1. knows what he's talking about &
2. can articulate what's the whole story about!
Thank you!
I remember when radial tires came out and that it meant that the reinforcement cords formed radii all the way around the tire, but it never occurred to me what bias ply meant until your explanation. The cords are on the "bias" which means they're at a 90 degree angle to each other and then at a 45 to the radius of the tire. Thanks again for the education. Nice job.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
@@sixtyfiveford This PR 40 works great! What do you clean it with rubbing alcohol? Do you use any primer? Have you used any 3M Black Urthane and Primer? I have some they use to for wind shields, I think motor mounts and more.
👍.
Man on Cold Morning's it was like you were driving with Square Tires , they would be near flat on the bottom from the car sitting overnite , least how till the tire warmed up in a couple of miles .an the steering was a lil weird as the car sorta swayed back an forth .
@@sixtyfiveford q
Bro! What? This was straight up genius. Never heard of this glue. As an avid mountain biker running tubeless tires this seems like amazing stuff to keep in my emergency kit for repairs to sidewalls. Please do more videos on this glue. Thanks!
I didn't even think about Mountain Bike tires. This would work great for those. Take an old bike tire chunk and some glue and you'd be set.
@@sixtyfiveford 1 question: you say the 3m pr40 glue is cheap... In europe its 40€ for a 0.6ounce bottle. Is it cheaper in the US?
@@rronaldreagan It's $16 usd right now.
There are those CO2 cartridge tire pressurization devices for bicycles ( I am still looking for a 90 gram to 20 gram connector converter attachment ) .
@@rronaldreagan It's still $16.
Few people are half as handy, skilled and smart as this guy. You can't just buy this kind of intelligence! I'd suggest taking notes. I definitely am!
Hey Thanks. That's very nice of you to say.
@sixtyfiveford thank you for making the videos!
Project farm needs to add this to his tire patch test video!
Love the video and adding it to the list of things you've recommended!
Gotta say you provide some of the best information in a simple, straight forward manner. Thanks.
Hey Thanks.
Hands down… this is the best, no nonsense, well explained tire repair video on TH-cam. Thanks for taking the time.
Hey Thanks.
Wow that glue is impressive. Great fix. Yeah that would be ashamed to throw away such a good treaded tire.
Thanks 👍
Pretty slick fix I can imagine this would be a handy repair for rock crawlers they will love this!!
There's a lot of money lost for offroad damage to these tires.
Slick like the chrome on Snap-On wrenches! 🦾Good stuff!
Super swamper tires that alot of the guys used to use were bias
Wow the glue is almost invincible I'm very impressed with the bond it makes with the rubber and also nice job patching the tire from the little trail ride you took us on the tire is holding up extremely well thanks for the video.
Thanks man. I was actually originally investigating this glue as something that would remake rubber to steel motor mounts for generators. It does a fantastic job of mounting rubber to steel.
AWSOME job my friend!! I didn’t know that they made a tire glue that strong 💪 and I’ve been fixing my own tires for years 😂
It holds stronger than rubber cemented patches.
Moe, you never cease to amaze me with your depth of knowledge in so many different areas! Great job!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
Great video thanks for doing it. I am adding this to my kit. I laughed when right after you said you didnt throw the stick in the puddle because you would have to ride home with a muddy puppy and she promptly runs through the puddle on the next throw 😄
WOW ! I’ve never heard of this stuff before. I will buy a bottle or two along with some scrap bias ply sidewall for trail repairs. Thank You for posting this information !
I love your channel because you always tell the fixes no one else tells you about and you save me so much money you are literally the most informative TH-camr keep it up!
I appreciate that!
Great video again. I appreciate the explanation of why car sidewalls cannot be repaired, many times in the past I have asked the tire shops why and they never had any explanation but now your explanation makes sense. That looks like a great idea to fix the sidewalls of off road tires. Thank you.
Hey Thanks.
Excellent video, thank you. I have a mini digger with a small (2 inch) tear in one of the tracks and I have been trying to find a way of repairing it for months so thanks again. Jon
3m needs to pay you for this one! I just bought a bottle and now my offroad kit is complete thanks
Finally! After 100 years they made a great rubber glue? Awesome! Thanks so much for this Well Explained video. Much love Bro! The Doctor is definitely IN !
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
I have a vision of me sitting beside a dry-rotted tractor tire gluing all the uv-checks together using 3,128 bottles of glue.
Great to know for sidewall punctures. I'll have to keep a bottle handy for small ag tires - sometimes just getting the machine back to a flat surface is all ya want to do a repair.
Heck yeah.
lol
U can take scissors to bike tubes and seal dry rott on tractor tirers be back on the field in no time
Repaired a lot of tyres in my time, mainly motorcycle tyres.
Thank you for the tips, and that 3M glue is heading for my toolkit!
I work at tyre’s so I’m very impressed with your bush fix.
I must say that glue looks serious glueing power. I’m going to try and track the product down, as I would carry that on the van as a great, get out jail card, for some awkward job, that’s bound to come my way some day . Greetings from Ireland.
Thanks. I'm glad you like it.
Thank you for your invaluable repair technique that I will put to good use.I have done many sidewall repairs, but thanks to you I will add pr40 to my arsenal. All the best to you and Ginger from New Rochelle N.Y.
Can’t wait till you do TH-cam full time. I’m always excited when you post a video.
Thanks Cory, I'm glad you like the videos. -Moe
Moe, this channel is pure gold. Thanks for your time good sir.
I literally learn a new thing from you in every video I watch, impressive. Thanks, I’ll remember all this.
Had to come back to this one for full details. How I missed this video is beyond me. Planning a long sxs trip this summer and this is a must. Thanks. Great tips.
Just a heads up the 3M PR40 can be hard to find/expensive in Canada. Any of the 3M PR series glues work just fine and one maybe easier/cheaper to come by(pr40, pr100, pr600, pr1500). The only difference in those glues is the thickness.
Wouldn't it make more sense to patch the tire from the inside so once it's aired up the inner pressure is pushing the patch in place,also you don't have to worry about a rock or some other object tearing the patch off
Yes yes it would at least be smart to have something on the inside similarity done
You could do that once your back home and can break the bead and can get to the inside sidewall. But what he's showing is the best way when your out on the trail
Almost impossible to break beak on Atv tires when your out in woods. This will get you home and last a long time.
Hard to do in the field plug makes sense in the field
I would also suggest that when you go to sewl it shut before you put the needle through use the smallest drill bit you can find and pre-drill it so that the needle will go through very easily.
For your next video, can you show us how to stitch up a wounded friend on the trail?
...make it quick, if you can. (Asking for a friend.)
Thanks for the video especially the links. I have an old dunnage bag, used in trains to keep loads from shifting. Ripped it trying to lift a work barge ,no one does vulcanizeing anymore this should work perfectly. Thanks again and God bless you and yours
I did 13 plugs once! Good video! Bet this would work with RC (radio control) tire glue sold in hobby shops. Its awesome stuff. Would probably work good on Zero Turn rear tires too, thats what I had 13 plugs in.
I always learn something new from you Moe, thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.
Moe, thanks again. You ingenuity, and simple approach to things continues to amaze me. I really enjoy you videos.
Thanks Jason.
Can't tell you how many times I've regular super glued punctures in all sorts of tires and it held up sometimes for years !!! Definitely adding this stuff to my center console just in case
When I am out off-roading with my he-man buddies and rip my sidewall. When they ask what I am doing, I will reply " I'm sewing, you got a problem with that?". This almost needs to be a kit you keep on the side-by in case of rock destruction. Anybody who has been doing serious off-road knows all about this. Thanks for the post.
Man. I've learned alot from your channel. Stuff i would have never believed. Thank you
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
The more I watch your channel the more impressed I am by your adaptability and knowledge. That glue looks perfect to repair some torn door weather-stripping I have on a classic car I appreciate the videos thanks!
Thanks Alex. I'm glad you like them. -Moe
Your "out of the box" engineering is brilliant.
Thanks David.
nice repair there but if it was me I would put the patch inside the tire and put a flat patch on the out side but keep up the cool videos
Placing the patch on the inside would be the better way to go. But with a low pressure atv tire the patch on the outside will probably be fine.
Absolutely. This is meant for a trail repair to get you back up an going. Even in the shop I would suspect this 10 minute exterior repair would easily push to 1.5hours to put the same patch on the inside with mounting, dismounting etc. I could do it easily but most guys don't have access to the tools to even take an ATV tire off the bead let alone on the trail. My instinct would be to put it on the inside but wanted to do it like I would on the trail. I was literally trying for 5 hours to rip this patch off with rocks. A few dozen times I nearly destroyed the tire elsewhere and put a few more dings in the rims.
I learned something new. I had been told that a tire with a hole in the sidewall couldn't be repaired with a plug but never had it explained why. Thanks
Great fix on the tire. I hadn’t heard of the 3M PR40 Rubber Weld. I will be buying some. I have had fair success gluing weather checks on mower tires but I used regular super glue. The Rubber Weld should improve the success rate.
I also have made orings by cutting a larger ring and gluing it back together to the proper sized. Never had a fail, but the PR40 would be better.
I can see having a tire repair kit in the Go To Hell bag. Even through it isn’t recommended for anything other than off road, it will get you to a place where you can get a tire.
I would think if I took your idea and cut some patches to carry in the GTH Bag along with the necessary sandpaper and glue that could be done for a lot less than $23.00. 😁😎
You get real popular when someone needs a oddball item that you have available, or a great work around.
Well said. It's a small bottle and I didn't know how far it would go, but it goes a long way. I was thinking this would work well for those old tractor tires that split. I scrounged up the other stuff and put together a little kit.
Im going on an atv riding trip in a few months. Thanks for the reminder to update my tire repair kit. Great video
Hey Thanks.
I been looking for small lawn tractor tire side split can't find the right replacement tire this looks like it will work THANK YOU SOOO MUCH
That's amazing glue and a brilliant fix.
Hey Thanks.
I've fixed several sidewall punctures and corner (where the tread meets the sidewall) punctures in radial with simple plug kits. Now, these were all small nail or screw holes, generally so small I had a difficult time getting the plug inserted. All the repairs lasted 10s of thousands of miles until the tire was worn out with no problems.
Hopefully you didn't mount that tire on the front?
@@Eyes0penNoFear Why would that matter any more than the rear? I think that all the tires I did that on were rear tires.
@@BryanTorok I'd think having a compromised sidewall might increase the chance of a catastrophic blowout.
@@Eyes0penNoFear So, I've been told and the tire companies say. But in 50 years of driving, I've never met anyone who actually had it happen to them.
Honesty I think you're pretty safe if it's only 1 plug on the high side of the sidewall on a truck or LT rated heavier tire. I wouldn't dare "anymore" on a car tire, especially in the dead center where the sidewall is only around 1/8" thick. I had a plug dead center in a small car tire wiggle it's way out after months and probably 5k miles. It just flexed so much and the air pressure behind it finally shot it out. I heard it as I was exiting the freeway and was able to still drive around a mile into a parking lot. On a LT truck tire, on the high side of the sidewall before the steel belts the sidewall quickly gets up to around 1/2" thickness which would hold a plug decent. Now with that, not all plugs are created equal. They do sell plugs that are wrapped with cushion gum(raw uncured rubber) and when used with vulcanizing cement become an actual permanent part of the tire. The tire I tore by hand in the video was a passenger rated tire for a normal mid size car, suv, or small truck and you saw how easily it tears.
Man your videos are top notch. So much leaning. Some other you tubers have no business making videos. Thanks for this very educational.
Which way are you leaning 🤔
This is excellent!
Wish I had seen this before I replaced my Load Range E BfG KO2s with a leaking sidewall puncture.
Shouldn’t have listened to the tire repair shop and replaced it.
Hopefully others will see this video and benefit.
This can’t be used on road tires, no sidewall repair can be done, tire will end up failing and causing an accident
I have a tire similar to this one with a boot in the side wall. Until I saw this I thought I was going to have to replace the tire.
Quick question/comment:
Would this not be better off done on the inside of the tire where it can't be snagged and the air pressure works with you rather than against you?
Yes, always but its nice to see you can do this technique when you're in a pinch and it'll get you home to repair it properly from the inside.
Two years ago I bought two new front 16" tractor tires because of same kind of side wall hole, I still have the old tires I might try this fix sometime. I tried volcanize patch on inside but the hole ripped bigger to three inches and and failed, I think what I need is that thread you have to stitch it back together but i want a better needle to do it with, thats what you need to show for us, the right needle that will work easy. Now the question is where'd you get that buffing tool????
Milwaukee actually sells an M12 tire buffing specific tool but unless that's your pro I can't imagine you'd buy one. His is just a regular M12 die grinder with what looks like a 2" roloc disc.
Yeah, any right angle die grinder(cordless or pneumatic) with a course grit roloc disc makes short work of rubber removal. You could even chuck it into any drill and do the same. One of my first attempts with sidewall repairs(15-20yrs ago) I put multiple rubber heavy duty cement patches and then a tube inside the tire. It held for a month and then the tube worked it's way out and tore a bigger hole in the process. This PR40 bonds better than any patch I've ever put on and the ability to use old sidewall as patch with reinforcement cords is a huge plus.
With the tyre off the rim, you can use an awl to make sewing easier. A leather needle would be good as the broader flat tip slices the material rather than trying to push it aside.
Awesome stuff my man..... These are the types of videos that make TH-cam invaluable for everyone for years to come
Thanks man
Good video, thanks for posting it. I'm impressed with that side wall repair and the glue you used, looks like it really does work well
Have you tried grinding up rubber into fine grind or dust and only putting in the 3m glue and filling with the rubber grind? A mix of rubber grind and 3M glue?
I don't think it would have the strength needed to hold a repair together. All of these glues and epoxies have pretty low strength when pulled directly apart. Their strength comes from overlapping two pieces together and then pulling sideways(lap shear). This is the high psi number you'll see on all the bottles of glue/epoxy. Mixing rubber powder/pr40 would fill gaps well though. So maybe if you had a depression under the patch you could put that mixture in. Or maybe for a spot where a chunk of rubber is missing from the sidewall but not really a hole.
Your idea here, great idea for weather checks on old tractor tires at least, thanks!
A honest to god tire repair! Thanks for the tip on the 3M glue. I've looked at the sidewall repair "kits" but this is far superior. This a great to get you off the trail if you kill a sidewall.
Hey Thanks.
This is a good video! It shows how to fix even a sidewall puncture. If you want to cut out pieces of old tires and get a $15 bottle of 20 grams of adhesive. Also, that 3M product will be my new shoe repair glue.
Put a tree thru the sidewall of a jeep tire , big ol' gash too. Luckily it was my spare tire😫 this was never going to hold pressure again. So we filled it with various forest debris everything from rocks dirt , leaves and branches 😆stuffed it like a Thanksgiving turkey. We got back off the mountain and to a highway where I called a tow. If a viewer finds themselves in a similar situation I hope this concept helps ✌️
That is hilarious, and I intend to remember it.
Thanks just gave me an idea as to fix cracked weatherstripping
That's some powerful adhesive, heck I can think hundreds of uses for that stuff.
Why would you not repair that from the inside?
I was thinking the same thing. Or one inside and outside.
He probably wanted to prove just how strong his repair is and how well the glue works!
Certainly it would be preferable, but as a field fix dismounting and remounting the tire is a tough job. Typically you're be on a trail somewhere miles from anything when you needed this sort of repair. I think he was mostly trying to demonstrate that it was something you could do anywhere, not just in the shop.
@@donhappel9566 Good point.
@@drstyxquack Well, he darn sure did that!
Your garage looks like mine so much to do do little time! I love that repair, I'm ordering some of that glue today!
Really great information, I've discarded an almost new ATV tire due to a sidewall puncture that could have been saved had I known about this. I've ordered the glue from your link. Thanks!
Thanks haven't seen that type of repair in over 40 years.
Cool fix! My brother inlaw bought a brand new Polaris Scrambler when they first brought them out. He unloaded it and drove about a mile before an old culvert hidden in the overgrowth punctured the sidewall. Would have been a good repair for him so that he didn't have to scrub his day of riding and go find a new tire :)
That's life sometimes. I took my brother's brand new Polaris Trailblazer out and rolled it down a huge hill the second day of him owning it. He gave me crap for a long time and it hurt my pocket book pretty bad to repair it back in the day.
Thank you for your video.
That upholstery needle and the nylon thread are new to me.
A couple of more things to add to my overlanding tool kit. Great video.
Thanks 👍
In this time of hyper inflation and supply chain problems, this is a great fix. I suspect that once a guy does this it'll be the go to option on future repairs
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
I watched this video a month ago and I ordered the PR40 glue. I used a patch from the Gluetread patch kit. This glue is crazy. I will give an update once I mount the tire and try it out. Great video
Awesome fix I have a tire with about ten plugs it's going to get your fix as soon as I can get the glue , I wonder if I could do a loader tire if I did it inside and outside thanks TANK
Thanks for sharing the knowledge about the tire corder. Recently, there was a screw on the tire shoulder of my Michelin tire. I patched the small hold with the tire fix kit but still has slight air leakage. I guess because I may not do it perfectly. Now, can I patch a small piece of old tire glue on the outside by this video according to your method without pulling out the strip and also without using the nylon thread??
I'm always learning something new as a age..! Thank you for making this video and showing me how to do this.
This is also good to know because I think something is about to happen in this country that we're all not prepared for. They're will come a time. When there won't be any more stores there won't be any more products to buy off the shelf. Everybody will have to learn how to repair their stuff.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it
After watching this I can’t believe I’ve broken sowing needles on denim jeans before. That thing was a trooper
Awesome job! Id definitely do this to fix any of my more costly off road tires and get extra life outta em
There are tons of radial atv tires out there! I have repaired radial atv tire sidewalls with a bit of cushion gum in the hole and then put a patch on the inside and another one on the outside and it's still there over 10 years later.
I had a side wall cut about 5” long on a backhoe tire side wall. I put 2 conveyor belt joiners across the cut. Then I put about an 8” boot on the inside. It lasted for years.
Well this is going to save me on the trails and money! Thank you
That was really great. you’re a smart guy every time I watch your videos I learn something . Thanks
Hey Thanks.
That was good information about how the radial tires are constructed. That some strong glue!
Hey thanks.
Another thing that I never knew about that certainly could have helped me several times in the past. Thanks for the Revelation!
Hey Thanks.
I am SO GLAD I didnt call you an idiot for trying to patch a sidewall BEFORE I watched this video...THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME SMARTER!
Hey Thanks.
Fantastic tutorial. Couldn't be better. NO music is especially appreciated!👍👍 Thank you very much 😎🇦🇺
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for revealing the 3M adhesive - Totally Awesome 😊
Trailer tires have very robust sidewalls. They'd make a good source for patch material. And they're usually bias-ply.
Interesting video, I have done sidewall repairs on radial tires before using a truck tire patch, and have seen video's where the person sewed the cut like you did.
Amazon is going to see a bump in sales of pr100,I know I just ordered some. Thanks for showing a better way of patching I've had atv tires with dozens of plugs in them lol.
we had a service station we fixed tires & tires Wish we had the Glue like that Great Video
It's impressive of how well the bonds
Pr 40. Thanks for the tip repaired sidewalls plenty wish I had that glue.
Awesome glue for tire repair. Haven't seen anyone go to the trouble to make this type repair in a long time.
When I was younger, we had to heat vulcanize that type of repair.
Now ur showing ur age ,Dad had not vulcanized patches in a metal tiny sorta dish held with a wind up clamp ,light it up and watch it fizzle til burnt out ,rubber was stuck to underneath the patch ,havnt seen them maybe 40 plus yrs
@@trevorslater2746has it been that long? Dang I'm old😕. Oh well, beats the other option. Back then I worked 20 hours a day, now.....that's a nap.😂
WELL NOW YOU'VE DONE IT! 4 days now since you posted this video and I finally found / watched it. Of course I instantly went to the link to buy a small bottle of the PR40 and they are SOLD OUT / BACKORDERED 🥴 .

A little bit of work saves a new tire how cool is that
I have seen my son in law fix side wall flats on the trail numerous times and they still hold in most cases
I was about to put a regular tire plug into the tire (there is a wood screw on the bottom) using a kit fm/Amazon, but yesterday have learned about mushroom plugs, and here I see another variant of the repair on the tire. This is a great film, thank you. May I ask you: Is the demonstrated type of repair applicable to the flat part of the tire (not side wall), where we normally can do a repair (of course to use very small patch). And is it better to use that Rubber Glue instead of Tire Cement, to apply it on the string (plug), or on the bottom of the mushroom plug? Thank you again.
Another great video, thank you for sharing your knowledge. One more tool going in my offroad kit.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. It bonds like no other rubber glue over ever used. I spent 5 hours intentionally trying to rip that thing off. Ended up ripping some side paneling off my UTV and putting more dents in the rim and the patch never failed.
That's awesome brother. Thanks for the tip. Definitely will get me some of that adhesive.
That's an awesome product. I wonder if you could just us that stuff on the tire plugs instead of a patch. Just curious. Thanks for the info. 👍
oh lordy thank you so much, ive been looking for a way to fix a few tires for a while now
a lawnmower tire and a tire on a project car of mine that both have cracks on them, don't care about the car tires because they're already unsafe for road use because of how old they are, just need them to roll around in the grass!!
Nice, the tire smiled all the way through. You know what they say, happy tire, happy life
Great fix! Thanks for the tip about Scotch Weld PR 40!
You bet!
Good video, I learned about the sidewall construction as well as the glue and patching, thanks Moe.
👍
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
I had the same thing happen on my yard tractor, I plugged it , trimmed it and JB welded it, 6 or 8 years ago. Still holding.the JB secures the plug.
Great use of children’s chalk. Some of my grandchildren live to pulverize the chalk for reasons I don’t understand but have to clean up weekly. I have some $30 Fixie tires that have sidewall cuts and yo get me outta Dodge I use aircraft fiberglass cargo pit tape but it bubbles causing it to rub against my frame.. I was going to sew it but needed to ride 5 miles to my employee lot. $30 bike tires are cheap but get expensive when used for less than 50 miles. I’m learning something new from you all the time and my family thinks that I’m a Nikola Tesla. I even have expired Scotch-well. Nice
