INNER TUBE REPAIRS
Presentation of repairs to the inner tube
The inner tube's repairs and reinforcement use a cold vulcanization system that
does not subject the inner tubes to any heat, extending its life. Additionally, its
extra-fine thickness and its expansion power match the inner tube's elasticity,
not forming lumps.
5
How to apply repairs to inner tubes?
Locate the damage or hole in the inner tube.

In case of a tear, use the oval repair. The repair must be at least three times bigger
than the damage.
After identifying the tear, round off the damage ends with the aid of scissors.
6
For round holes, use round repairs. The patch must be 10 times bigger than the hole.
Apply Bufpal surface activator in the damage surroundings. Using a sandpaper, a

grinder or similar tool, texturize the damage area.

Apply vulcanizing cement in circular motions.
Remove the metalized film from the repair and apply it in the area.
8
Make light pressure on the spot.
Firmly roll the repair over the inner tube.

Then, remove the protective plastic and perform a test to check the seal or to find
other unrepaired holes.
In case there aren't any other unrepaired holes, the air chamber will be ready for use.
How to change the valve reinforcement?
The reinforcement is intended to replace valves in inner tubes for cargo, agricultural,
and OTR tyres/tires using the cold method.
10
Remove the valve using a stylus.
Remove the nut and the washer and place the new valve completely inside the inner
tube.

Scrape the area with a grain 36 carbide according to the size of the repair required to
close the damage.
Apply Bufpal surface activator to the marked area removing impurities.
12
Apply vulcanizing cement in circular motions.
Place the repair centered to the hole.

Roll firmly from the center of the repair and remove the protective film.
Select the area to apply the new reinforcement, preferably at 180°

from the original location.
If possible, a new valve can be applied to the original location.
Note the original valve position alignment ensuring that it properly fits to the wheel.
14
Mark the new valve application area.
Prepare the area where the new valve will be placed with a grain 36 Carbide.

Apply Bufpal surface activator to the prepared area removing impurities.
Apply vulcanizing cement in circular motions and wait for it to dry completely.
16
Place the reinforcement on the prepared areas.
Roll firmly from the center of the repair.

Place the valve inside the inner tube at the center of the reinforcement and cut using
a stylus.
Place the fixation plate, then the nut and tighten, being careful so that it doesn't get to
tight, deforming the inner tube.
Carry out a leak test; if negative, the inner tube is ready to be used.

VF, VFP AND RT3 REPAIRS
VF and VFP are rubber repairs for repairing car, van, and truck tyres/tires, on radial and
bias ply tyres/tires in the tread region using the hot method and the cold method.
VF hot repair presentation
Rubber repair for repairing minor damage using the hot vulcanization method in tyres/
tires with and without radial and bias-ply inner tubes.
The VF (Vipal Hole) repair makes it possible to repair damages of 3, 6, and 8 mm.
19
VF and VFP cold repairs presentation
Rubber repair for repairing minor damage using the cold vulcanization method in tyres/
tires with and without radial and bias-ply inner tubes.
The VF (Vipal Hole) and VFP (Vipal black hole) enable the repair of 3, 6, and 8 mm
damages.
20
RT-3 repair presentation
RT-3 is intended to repair minor damages of up to 3 mm using the cold vulcanization

method in car and trucks tubeless radial tyres/tires.
21
How to apply VF, VFP and RT-3 repairs?
Use the Bufpal surface activator to clean the area to be scraped.

Don’t use compressed air for cleaning and drying.
With the beads open similarly to the aperture provided by the used wheel, center the
VF, VFP, or RT-3 repairs and mark the area to be scraped. The following instructions
use the VF repair as an example, but the application methodology is the same for
VFP and RT-3.
22
Scrape the area by obtaining an RMA1 or RMA2 texture pattern. Use a grinder with fine
grain carbide between 2500 rpm and 3500 rpm.
Use the Bufpal surface activator to clean the scraped area.


Correctly apply the vulcanizing cement to the scraped area. Allow the glue to dry for
the recommended time, which may change according to temperature and relative air
humidity. Do not use another air source to accelerate drying.
For hot repairs apply vulk glue following the same procedures.
Attention:
DO NOT USE flammable cement near flame, spark or another ignition source.
24
Remove the protective film from the repair base by avoiding direct contact with the
connection. If there is contamination to the base, apply cement for cold repair or vulk
glue for hot repair.
Place it centrally on the hole and remove the remaining plastic.

The repair application should be made with the beads open similarly to the aperture
provided by the usage wheel. Align the repair according to the demarcated area.

Roll the repair correctly from the hump to the edges, ensuring better adhesion and
preventing air occlusion.
Remove the top plastic. The tyre/tire with a cold VF repair may be inflated 10 minutes
after application. Tyre/tire with hot VF repair should be vulcanized.
26
Apply sealant at the edges of the patch, covering the buffed area and protecting the
patch from possible infiltration.

MC REPAIRS
MC (conjugated patches) repairs are recommended for repairing 3, 6, 8, and 10mm
damages to the tread in radial tires.
MC repairs presentation
Disk with vulcanized rubber rod that should be applied only to the tread area from
inside out. Disk and rod perform the dual role of sealing and filling the damage. In
order to correctly select the repairs, check Vipal Repairs table. MC is available to the
cold vulcanizing process.
Attention:
There is an usage restriction for rubber repairs above 8 mm in some countries, please
check the applicable law.
28
How to apply MC repairs?
Identify the damaged area assessing the damage size.
After location the hole, pierce the damage with a low-speed electric grinder between
2,500 rpm and 3,500 rpm, properly equipped with a steel cutter, always following
the drilling angle. The tools used should remove the damaged cables and produce
a round surface. Repeat this procedure at least three times from the tyre/tire's inside
out to ensure complete removal of damaged cables, being careful not to increase the
damaged area. Use the awl to identify possible separations in belts near the damage.
29
Identify the repair corresponding to the damage/hole diameter according to the MC
measurements.

30
Using a school chalk, mark the area to be prepared with the MC disk itself.
To prevent contamination and preserve the liner, carefully scrape only the marked area
and always using a fine grain carbide grinder from 2,500 to 3,500 rpm. Be careful not
to expose the tyre/tire structure belts.
The texture of the buffed area should be RMA1 or RMA2.

Remove the rubber powder in the scraped area with a fine brush and/or vacuum
cleaner to obtain a clean and dry surface.

32
Open the MC package and apply a uniform layer of vulcanizing cement to the disk
and rod, as shown in the picture.
Correctly apply the cement to the scraped area. Allow the glue to dry for the
recommended time, which may change according to temperature and relative air
humidity. Do not use another air source to accelerate drying.
Attention:

IInsert the brass stick from inside out enough to cross the casing.
With aid of a plier, completely pull the repair by the rod. This will cause an elongation
and, as consequence, a momentary thinning of the rod, making the introduction easier.
It is enough to level the disk to the casing without sinking it.
34
Once loose, the rod recovers its original thickness, pressuring the hole walls and
providing a sealing effect.
Inside, roll the MC disk from the center to the edges and apply sealant to the edges.

On the outside, cut without trailing the rod, just above the tread.
The tyre/tire is ready to be assembled, inspected, and put into use.
36
VIPSTEM
The Vipstem repair is intended to fill rounded (cylindrical) damages up to 15 mm located
in the tread of tyres/tires with radial construction by the cold vulcanization process.
IMPORTANT:
Oval damages or cuts cannot be repaired with this product.
Products used in application
Vipstem:
Vulcanized rubber rod that should be used with the relevant patch or rubber repair. In
order to correctly select the repairs, check Vipal Repairs table; Vipstem is available to
the cold vulcanizing process.
37
Steel milling cutter:
This is used to prepare the damaged area to apply the repair.
38
How to apply Vipstem?
After location the hole, prepare the damage with a low-speed electric grinder between
2,500 rpm and 3,500 rpm, properly equipped with a steel cutter, always following the
drilling angle. The tools used should remove the damaged cables and produce a round
surface. Repeat this procedure approximately three times from the tyre/tire's inside out
to ensure complete removal of damaged cables, being careful not to increase the
damaged area. With an awl, make sure there are no possible separations in the belts
near the damage. If necessary, use a steel cutter with a larger diameter.
IMPORTANT:
Use a steel cutter slightly larger than the damaged area and of the same size of the
Vipstem repair to be used.
39
Identify the Vipstem repair corresponding to the same diameter of the damage
according to the available measurements.
Dimensions
Denomination Damages up to (mm)
Ø (mm) Length (mm)
Vipstem 6 6 50 6
Vipstem 8 8 50 8
Vipstem 10 10 50 10
Vipstem 13 13 50 13
Vipstem 15 15 50 15
40
Remove Vipstem from the package and avoid contamination.
Use an auxiliary needle to apply Vipstem to the properly prepared damaged area.

Apply vulcanizing cement in the repair waiting for the cement's proper drying. Do
not use another air source to accelerate drying, avoid direct contact with the repair
previous prepared.
In the already properly prepared damaged area, apply vulcanizing cement and wait for
a complete drying.
42
Apply the Vipstem repair from the inside out, leaving the repair end on the same level
as the tyre/tire liner.

RAC - RA - RS PATCHES
RAC (Radial Centralized), RA (Radial Aramid), and RS (Radial Steel) patches are
intended to radial tyres/tires internal repairs.
These patches are built with inner plies that follow the same manufacturing direction
as radial tyre/tire casing plies. RAC has a nylon internal structure. RA has an aramid
internal structure. RS has a steel internal structure.
Next, we'll see how to choose the appropriate patch considering the tyre/tire and the
damage size.
44
How to choose RAC, RA, and RS patches?
Patch selection for specified tread damage

Keep the tyre/tire in normal position opening the beads similarly as the opening
provided by the usage wheel. Position the template at the center of the damage and
mark the outline with chalk or unlock the template so the damage is kept inside the
repairable area, avoiding that the patch end is the tyre/tire flexing area.
49
To prevent contamination and preserve the liner, only the demarcated area should
be carefully trimmed using a fine grain carbide grinder from 2,500 to 3,500 rpm. Be
careful when scraping in order not to expose the tyre/tire structure belts.
The texture of the buffed area should be RMA1 or RMA2.
50
Don’t use compressed air to clean areas to be repaired.
Apply vulcanizing cement to the scraped area and wait for it to dry completely.
Do not use another air source to accelerate drying.

Important:
For repairs that will be vulcanized in direct vapor autoclave, we recommend using a
bulk or common connection on the patch edges.

When repairs are vulcanized in direct vapor autoclave, the sealant application is
performed after vulcanization.
When VT patches have to be overlapped, first apply the larger patch following the
previous process. To apply the overlap, from the smaller patch, follow instructions
below:
This process should always be performed using the hot method.
After applying the larger patch, centralize the smaller patch on the patch already
