Its on a JCB 535-125 loadall.bootlace repair puncher with tubeless tyre repair kit.tire says tubless but sometimes if tires had a deep gash a innertube gets put in.and you can tell by the velve if its still tubeless or had innertube fitted

That is a tubeless valve - no tube fitted.

Thx so much.. can i ask how did you know?

A tube will have a knurled collar like this to keep the valve in place.

Your wheel has a flange nut , with a rubber seal inside the rim, to seal the tyre.

A tubed tyre normally has a plastic retaining nut and they are not tightened down totally as that valve is so there is a bit of movement for the tube

Don't like bootlaces here as it never works for very long at all. Best method is a plug as below with the cap cut off, shed load of blue cement and wedge it in from the outside!

 

[demmo]

Can i buy them or do i have to make them? If i can buy them where from plz and cement

Ebay might be a better bet if you don't need a boxfull though.

Thx again i will theres

bootlace when they work and properly fitted are great.
Not being too clever we have ruined a tyre or 2 by not actually sealing the inner skin,
this lets air get into the tyre itself and can cause a massive rubber blister

Need to be brutal with the drill and make hole big enough to pull through easily

 

[demmo]

You mean pull the bootlace through? I pushed mine in did i do it right?

"Bootlace" repairs go in from the outside, without taking the tyre off the rim, and should be treated as a temporary repair.
"Mushroom" patches are pulled through from the inside, so you at least have to lift one bead of the tyre over the rim to fit them. But once in, they're a proper repair.

It does seem wrong sticking a drill bit or reamer through a little hole to make it bigger, but it cleans everything up, gives you a bit of room to get the glue in, and makes it the right size for the repair.
Most mushrooms have a steel rod you use to poke through the hole, and pull on to get the patch on tight. If your wrist is strong enough the steel should pop out!

Im only a loadall driver on site.breaking beads would take to much time.and fitters come out and only bootlace.so its probley best i stick to bootlacing.i bootlaced my first tyre today saved the sity 58 quid plus vat i was not waiting around for a fitter.site kept running.keeps me in work dont think any other loadall driver on sites can fix there own punchers. I can because of the farming forums

On the trike we just used a self tapping screw.
