Fug-It has been exported for the last 10 years under the brand name Seal-A-Wheel and in 1996 the product was identified and bestowed the 12th International Quality Award. We have continued improving our product to maintain the outstanding quality and affordability of our product. Tyre manufacturers recommend that tyre pressure should be maintained to maximize tyre life. In having the correct tyre pressure, checked at regular intervals, is not always possible for drivers due to the freight demands on delivery time and driver safety when operating transportation equipment. Our sealant has assisted greatly in being the solution in maintaining the correct tyre pressure up to 10 times longer when treated with Fug-It Tyre Sealant. Compared to untreated tyres on the same test bed. It also has reduced blow outs significantly by dissipating the heat evenly from hotspots. Intensive tests were conducted on tyres with the size of Michelin (265/70R 19.5”) on capturing detailed data on a test bed run by a national vehicle distributing carrier. The following savings were recorded in the tests run by the company over a 9 month period: 1. Average tyre life on all tyres increased by 7%. 2. Tyre casing loses reduced from 2.3% to 1%. 3. Breakdown Recovery Cost: reduced by 67%. 4. CPK (cost per kilometer) reduced from 43c to 28c. FAQ’s Q: What is Fug-It? A: Fug-It is a proactive tyre sealant and tyre life enhancer. Fug-It is a Glycol based liquid that when installed will provide full protection against air loss for the legal life of the tyre! Fug-it repairs tread punctures and extends the life of a tyre by maintaining tyre pressure, therefore reducing uneven wear by up to 15% and making the tyre more economical! Saves fuel by maintaining the correct pressure and therefore reducing the running costs! Q: How does Fug-It work? A: The tyre pressure within the tyre forces the sealant through the punctured hole, as the tyre rotates and strikes the road surface, the hole is stretched open allowing polyethylene chips and fibres to enter and form a permanent flexible seal, plugging the affected area whilst in transit! Q: Will Fug-It seal sidewall punctures? A: No! Fug-It will only temporarily seal the sidewall, as the sidewall of the tyre flexes too much and this does not allow Fug-It to cure correctly! If this occurs, the tyre should be replaced! The AA does not approve of any sidewall repairs! Q: Does Fug-It create a hard plug in the tread of the tyre? A: No, the seal is designed to be flexible due to the tyre being flexible and if the plug was hard, leakage will occur when the tyre rotates and flexes! Q: Will Fug-It block the tyre valve whilst it is been installed? A: Occasionally, a polyethylene chip will tumble into the valve area creating a blockage! When this occurs, remove the connector of the pump from the valve, permit a short blast of air to clear the blockage or alternatively use a paper clip to clear the blockage, then re-attach the connector and continue installation. Q: Will Fug-It rust the inner rim or tyre valve? A: No! Fug-It contains an anti-corrosive agent which prevents corrosion and rust! Q: Must an intrusive object (nail, screw, etc.) be removed from the tyre? A: Yes always! Fug-It will seal around the object, but as the tyre rotates, movement occurs, making the hole larger and therefore Fug-It will only seal temporarily! If the object is a screw, unscrew it, as yanking it out will only damage the steel belt within the tyre! The vehicle should be driven after the object has been removed, allowing the Fug-It to spread evenly and create a seal! Q: Must the tyre be run after the intrusive object has been removed? A: Yes, as the centrifugal forces need to spread and coat the effected area for the seal to be permanent! The vehicle needs to be driven for at least 5km after sealant has been installed and if not, the tyre will lose air pressure!! Q: Will Fug-It chemically react with the tyre? A: No, Fug-It is chemically inert. Depending on the risk factors and usage, it may have to be topped up from time to time! Q: Will Fug-It dry out inside of a tyre? A: No it will not. It will remain a liquid for the legal life of the tyre. Q: Is Fug-It affected by extreme temperatures? A: No, Due to Fug-it being a Glycol base, which allows Fug-it to operate under extreme temperatures. Q: Is Fug-It water dispersible? A: Yes it is, since there is no chemical bonding of Fug-It to the tyre, it can be easily removed from the tyre by spraying the inside of the tyre and simply washing it out. Q: In what quantities can Fug-It be purchased? A: Fug-It is supplied in 250ml, 500ml, 1L bottles, 25L and 210L drums. Q: What is the shelf life of Fug-It? A: The shelf life of Fug-It is practically indefinite, as long as the container is sealed and no evaporation occurs. Q: Can Fug-It be installed against truck tyre pressure, using a hand pump? A: Yes, but it would be easier to reduce the pressure to approx. 3 – 4 Kpa and once the Fug-It has been installed, the tyre can be re-inflated to the correct pressure! To maximize the benefits of Fug-It, this step should preferably be done on fitment of new tyres! Q: Can Fug-it be pneumatically installed? A: Yes it can, a 2l or 5l pneumatic applicator is available, which can be used in conjunction with an air compressor. Q: Does Fug-It gather in the bottom of a tyre, if tyre is not in motion? A: No, Fug-It is a thixotropic gel that attaches itself to the inside of the tyre tread and remains in place at all times. However, 10% of the sealant will run to the bottom if the vehicle is stationary for extended periods of time, but will spread evenly within the first 5km of driving the vehicle again! Please note: A slight spreading vibration may be felt between 90 – 120KPM for a short period of time, while the liquid spreads! Q: Will Fug-It seal tyres with inner tubes? A: Yes, Fug-It has a 80% success rate in tyres with inner tubes! However, the intrusive object will have to be removed or the object could tear the inner tube as the tyre rotates. If this happens, the repair will be temporary and the tube will need to be repaired or replaced! Q: Can Fug-It be installed against truck tyre pressure, using a hand pump?
