BBTO Cushion Gum Roll for Tire Repair — 1 kg 10" Wide, 2 mm Thick, Heat-Vulcanizing All-Purpose Rubber

BBTO 1 kg Roll All-Purpose Cushion Gum is a 10" wide, 2 mm thick natural rubber repair strip designed for filling punctures, sidewall scratches, and partial retreading on cars, trucks, tractors, buses and agricultural tires.

This raw rubber roll gives mechanics and fleet operators a compact, easy-to-store supply of cushion gum formulated for heat vulcanizing repairs. Made from a natural rubber compound, the roll is cut-to-size for different repair tasks and built to resist over-vulcanization so patches and fills stay durable under pressure and temperature changes. Its versatile dimensions and workable material make it suitable for both tube and tubeless tires across a wide range of vehicle types.

How do I use this cushion gum for a typical puncture repair?

Clean and prepare the damaged area, apply an appropriate vulcanizing agent, then insert a precisely cut piece of cushion gum to slightly overfill the defect. Heat and press the repair with vulcanizing equipment, then allow the area to cool naturally for a secure finish.

• Trim the damaged zone and remove contaminants before bonding.
• Apply vulcanizing compound evenly to promote chemical bonding.
• Cut the BBTO rubber to fit; fill so the surface is slightly raised.
• Use heat and pressure (vulcanizer) then cool fully for best results.

What tire areas and vehicle types is this repair roll suitable for?

The cushion gum is engineered for crown, shoulder and sidewall repairs on both tube and tubeless tires. It works for passenger cars as well as heavy vehicles like trucks, buses, tractors and mining equipment where partial retreading or scratch filling is needed.

• Sidewall and shoulder patching for agricultural and off-road tires.
• Crown and tread scratch filling in light and heavy-duty applications.
• Ideal for repair shops, retreading plants, and fleet maintenance.
• Compatible with heat vulcanizing repair processes.

How much material is provided and can I customize piece size?

This product comes as a 1 kg roll approximately 10 inches wide and 2 mm thick, which is easy to cut into any length you need. The roll’s manageable weight and dimensions make it convenient to store in a workshop, trunk, or service vehicle for on-demand repairs.

• One 1 kg roll (about 2.2 lb) of natural rubber compound.

What preparation and safety steps should I follow before vulcanizing?

Surface preparation and correct vulcanizing technique are essential for a lasting repair. Ensure the tire area is cleaned, roughened, and treated with a suitable vulcanizing agent; follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines for temperature and pressure during vulcanization.

• Polish and degrease the repair area to remove contaminants.
• Use an approved vulcanizing agent (sold separately) for bonding.
• Apply correct heat and pressure per vulcanizer instructions.
• Allow complete cooling before inflating or returning tire to service.
