The Tire Plugger from Stop & Go will handle an emergency repair on a tubeless tire when a repair from the inside of the tire is not possible. Tire Plugger will quickly seal the tire puncture on the inside of the tire.

The Plugger is a spring-loaded gun that drives a plug into the hole. The shaft of the plug expands under pressure to fill the puncture. A mushroom head of the plug sits on the inner wall and allows no air to escape.

The Tire Plugger is easily stored in a small carrying pouch and weighs just 23 lbs. The kit includes the Plugger, nozzle, probe tool, reamer/rasp tool, retractable blade, and 25 rubber mushroom plugs. Suggested retail price is $43.95. An extra bag of plugs is $7.50.

This is a cool innovation from Stop & Go. I was really thinking of introducing this kind of technology, but of course I don't have enough money to run my own company so I just waited for others to invent it (which indeed happened. lol). It's not much of my ideal repair tool but it looks like it can help a lot especially when you're stranded on a deserted place and far away from local shops. This, I guess, is a must-have for every driver out there. I just think that the details are lacking here, like the steps or procedures on how to use this tool. I have even researched on sites for general repairs like automd.com for how to auto repair but I guess this tool is not yet included on all of the repair sites. Hope they would think of it, too, someday. :-)
