OKO is injected into the tyre BEFORE a puncture occurs and once installed, the viscous liquid remains in a pool at the base of the tyre. Given the motion of a revolving tyre, the centrifugal forces distribute OKO around the inner circumference providing a protective layer and coating against any punctures or leakages that may occur. When the tyre is punctured, air pressure forces OKO into the hole and compresses to form a strong, instantaneous and permanent airtight seal. OKO stays inside the tyre, ready to seal further holes and leakages as and when they occur, on a multiple basis.
In a sealed environment, OKO will always remain as a stable solution and will not disintegrate or precipitate. Its coolant additive significantly enhances the absorption of heat, lowering the temperature of the hull, which can help increase the working life of a tyre.
