1 review for Plugga III Tyre Repair Kit
I am really surprised that an insurance company would be selling, and by default endorsing, a product that is marketed to repair tyre’s when the “repair” is just for a temporary emergency situation and not a permanent repair. This type of lubricated wax plug repair system is illegal and if a tyre repaired by this type of plug system was to cause or contribute to a accident then insurance claim could be refused.
Many tyre repairers will not carry out a correct and legal repair on a tyre that has had an lubricated wax type emergency plug fitted. The result is the tyre is scraped rather than being able to be repaired correctly.
The only plug system to be used are cold chemical vulcanising method, either Tech or Rema Tip Top have the correct plug system to use.
Club 4×4 should review all products sold or endorsed to ensure legal compliance.
It is not illegal to sell this type of repair kit or in fact repair a tyre using it. It only becomes illegal when the tyre is fitted to the vehicle.

Hi Jack,
Our intent here is to help someone affect an emergency repair if they are stuck remote. This is not intended as a permanent fix. I’m not a tyre expert, but I’ll do some digging into the other types of repair kits you mention. This might make a great article for The Campfire. Thanks, Aiden
