Drivesafe heavy duty tyre sealant and tyre conditioning gel specifically designed for a wide range of equipment ranging from small parks and ground care equipment to the larger heavier industrial equipment operating in challenging working environments, where punctures and other tyre-related issues are a regular occurrence resulting in costly equipment downtime.
Heavy duty tyre sealant designed for use in off-road plant and equipment working in challenging conditions where tyres can be subject to damage helping to reduce costly equipment downtime.
Drivesafe heavy duty tyre sealant is unique and different being a gel-like consistency this makes our product unique from other products available on the market today.
The advantages of being a GEL compared to a sloppy fluid type of product, our product contains specially formulated adhesive which gives the gel the properties to coat the inside tyre casing, this effectively seals the tyre from inside and remains in place for the life of the tyre. In the event of the tyre sustaining a puncture the foreign object passes through the protective coating where air pressure from within instantly forces the gel into the wound creating a flexible seal enabling the equipment to continue. This is far more effective compared to the sloppy fluid-based products washing about within the tyre and most often wash away from the puncture wound resulting in deflation.
Drivesafe tyre sealant is installed into the tyre via the valve when the wheel starts to rotate the product is evenly distributed across the inner tread section of the tyre where it applies a protective coating, this protective coating remains in place for the life of the tyre.
The protective coating applied to the inner crown section of the tyre has several benefits as the coating acts as a barrier between air and tyre casing this helps to maintain correct operating pressures for longer periods of time.
In the unfortunate event of a foreign object penetrating the tyre casing and passing through the protective coating the air pressure from within instantly forces the gel into the wound to form an effective flexible seal. Sealing the puncture as it occurs allows the equipment to continue minimising costly equipment downtime and loss of productivity. In the unfortunate event of the tyre suffering a large impact wound then the product may just seal the tyre enabling the equipment to get back to the workshop or to a safe working area and have the tyre inspected on grounds of safety, in such instances the gel can be either scooped out or wiped away from the damaged area for an internal inspection can be carried out and repaired to the relevant industry standards.
By maintaining the correct pressures helps to reduce the tyres rolling resistance and will eliminate additional heat build-up within the tyre due to surface friction. Underinflation is the underlying cause of excessive tread wear and rubber degradation with the tyre more prone to tread and sidewall damage, underinflation is often the cause of casing fatigue due to excessive flexing during the working life of the tyre's casing, signs of splitting on the sidewall rendering the tyre unfit for purpose.
A combination of deep tread, long duty cycles, heavy loads and surface friction all contribute to heat build-up and retained in the tyre which is why correct operating pressures are an important factor to ensure maximum tyre service life, performance, safety and reducing cost per hour.
Drivesafe products are not affected by heat retained within the tyre and do not dry out or separate after a short period of time, this is a common problem with many inferior products on the market today and may have an adverse effect on the tyre and performance of the product.
Drivesafe products are suitable for a wide range of applications ranging from Parks and Grounds care, Agricultural, Construction, Industrial equipment through to heavy mining & Port material handling equipment.
What will the product seal, a question we get asked many times, in the unfortunate event of sustaining a puncture the lifespan of the seal will vary upon several key factors
The product has the capability to seal what the casing can safely sustain without causing or masking any secondary damage.
Drivesafe tyre sealant does not break down, foam up or separate within the tyre, a common problem associated with many other products leads to the following to name a few
Drivesafe products are water-soluble environmentally friendly, non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-flammable. In the event of the tyre sustaining major impact damage, the product can be removed from the tyre with just water or by cleaning the area and preparing the area in the normal way to repair to the relevant industry standards.

Quantity per tyre size guide
Measure the wheel height from base to top of the tread in "inches"
Measure the tread width in "inches" or use the tyre size
Click on the link below and input information
Example 405/70x20" construction equipment telehandler or dumper
Tyre Height 42"
Width 405 width = 16" = 672
672 x PYE 3.14 = 2110
2110 x 0.0030 = 5.7-Litres per wheel
