Tyre Bands

About Safety Tyre Bands

A light and durable aluminium band is fitted to the well of the wheel rim to lock the tyre in place in the event of a blow-out, puncture or under inflation. Vehicles fitted with safety Tyre Bands can travel for up to 40km at a low speed after a puncture or blow-out, allowing the driver to reach a place of safety inorder to change the deflated tyre.

A blow-out occurs when sudden deflation renders the tyre pressure insufficient to hold the tyre position. Typically, the tyre moves from the wheel rim, freeing the remaining air, causing the rim to make contact with the road surface. Often leading to rim damage and endangering the lives of the vehicle's occupants and other road users. Safety Tyre Bands are an affordable and safe solution to these problems.
