Do you have questions about 11D tire sealant?
On this page, you will find all frequently asked questions about using 11D tire sealant in trucks, agricultural vehicles, and commercial vehicles.
11D tire sealant prevents flat tires, extends tire life, and reduces downtime – even under the toughest conditions.
Discover how to apply the product, how it works, and why it is used by professionals worldwide.
What is 11D tire sealant?
11D Tyre Sealant is a liquid solution designed to prevent flat tyres. 11D Tyre Sealant is applied inside a tyre and remains liquid, providing immediate protection to the tyre the moment it is punctured.
In which vehicles can 11D Tyre Sealant be used?
11D Tyre Sealant can be used in any wheeled vehicle, with the exception of cars or other vehicles that travel faster than 80 km/h.
How do I choose the right variant?
11D Tyre Sealant is available in 4 different types, each with a different viscosity and sealing capacity. Depending on the tyre size, vehicle specification, and speed, there is a suitable sealant. Your 11D distributor, importer, or dealer knows exactly which choice is best.
How do I apply 11D Tyre Sealant?
11D Tyre Sealant is packaged in 25-litre drums, for which a custom pump has been designed that fits the drum. The pump has a hose that attaches to the tyre valve. With every pump stroke, 0.25 litres of 11D Tyre Sealant is injected into the tyre.
How do I maintain the application pump?
Ensure that you clean the application pump with water after each use. Store the pump in a dry place.
How much 11D is needed to treat a belt properly?
Depending on the size of the tire, a smaller or larger amount is required to treat the tire. You can look up the tire you wish to treat in the available data sheet and administer the correct number of pump strokes.
How long does 11D remain effective after it has been applied?
11D Tyre Sealant remains 100% effective for the entire lifespan of the tyre. After storage, 11D remains fully functional for five years.
Why can't I use 11D Tyre Sealant in my car? Would it work?
It would certainly work, but a car tire is carefully balanced so that you can drive at high speeds. Balancing a car tire is a meticulous task performed by balancing the tire with a few grams of lead. If you add a liquid to the tire that can move freely inside it, the tire becomes unbalanced and the steering wheel will vibrate.
Does 11D Tyre Sealant affect the rim or the tyre on which it is used?
No, one of the main components of 11D Tyre Sealant is a monopropylene-based glycol that inhibits rust formation. This means that 11D Tyre Sealant does not cause the rim to rust, nor does it prevent it – but safe use is guaranteed. Moreover, the sealant does not affect the structure or stability of the tyre and does not compromise any of the vehicle's driving characteristics.
A truck can drive faster than 80 km/h; why is imbalance not an issue?
A truck has a greater weight and more tires to provide balance than a car. Therefore, any imbalance is compensated for by the vehicle's characteristics. In some cases, light trucks may experience minor balancing issues on the steering axles.
When should I use 11D Tyre Sealant to protect my tyres?
The financial impact of a flat tire is influenced by consequential costs, which add up to a significant amount. These include not only repair costs, but other factors such as reputational damage, tire damage, vehicle damage, emergency repair costs, labor costs, etc., which all play a role in determining the total downtime costs for a single incident.
11D & tire repair
11D does not conflict with regrooving procedures. Hot or cold regrooving can be performed without 11D making it impossible to locate the sealed holes. 11D is easily removed with water.
Allow the tire to dry completely before regrooving.
11D does not affect the structure or metal cords and does not damage the tire in any other way. Since the product is non-toxic and non-flammable, it is safe to use when retreading.
11D Tire Sealant & TPMS
Because the TPMS pressure monitoring system is located on the inside of the tire and 11D is liquid, these systems may conflict with each other, as 11D can block the TPMS sensor. External TPMS systems are naturally unaffected by this system. Consult your 11D business partner, vehicle specialist, or maintenance partner before applying 11D to the tire.
11D & tire maintenance
There are no additional maintenance requirements for tires in which 11D has been used. In any case, the tire must be regularly inspected for cuts, sidewall damage, or objects in the tire. In some cases, 11D may seal a puncture while the object is still in the tire. Remove the object and repair it, or let 11D Tyre Sealant seal the puncture.
11D & Personal Health
11D poses no danger when used correctly. Always wear gloves and safety goggles when working near a vehicle. If 11D comes into contact with eyes, skin, or clothing, rinse immediately.
