Goodyear airplane innertubes are manufactured to rigid standards to meet or exceed all commercial and military performance requirements. Each is produced to the requirements of Goodyear's quality standard QAI2525, and meets the MIL-I-5014 military specification except for packaging.

All tubes are individually wrapped in .005 mm gauge clear plastic and cardboard boxed in various quantities.

Our innertubes are made from natural rubber which provides maximum life and meets cold temperature performance requirements. The tubes are factory balanced. The heavy spot is marked with a yellow stripe; if it does not have a stripe the valve is considered the heavy spot.

The valve stem, core and cap are manufactured by Schrader for aircraft use. They are designed for high and low pressure requirements. The High Pressure Cap is metal (MS20813-1). The Low Pressure Cap is plastic. All parts meet U.S.A. military specifications.

Recommended Storage
Place in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Temperatures should be between 32 degrees F (0 degrees C) and 85 degrees F (30 degrees C). Always store away from fluorescent lights, electric motors and similar electric equipment. They create ozone which has a deteriorating effect on rubber. Whenever possible they should be stored in their original cardboard carton. Never hang over nails, pegs or any object that might form a crease. It will eventually produce a crack in the rubber, leading to a leak.

.
Recommended Age Limit
Tubes may be placed in service, regardless of the calendar age, provided all inspection for service/storage or individual customer-imposed restrictions are met.

.
Recommended Use
A new tube should be used when installing in a new tire. Tubes, like tires, grow in service, taking a permanent set of about 25% larger. This makes a used tube too large to use in a new tire which would cause a wrinkle and lead to a leak.

A punctured tube may be repaired and reinserted in the tire.

.
Valve Bending
Tube valves are bent at the tube factory to the Tire and Rim Association's recommended angle.

A manual (hand held) "Valve Converting Tool" is available for easy bending of the stem. Contact Schrader World Headquarters in Monroe, N.C., U.S.A. Telephone (704) 289-4535.

Note: 1. Tube size designation is same as tire size designation which assures proper fit. For multiple size marked tubes, the tube was designed to fit correctly in all the identified sizes. A certain amount of tube stretch is required for maximum performance.

2. REG = Regular or all rubber tube (Except valve stem). FAB = Fabric base tube to eliminate wheel chafing during high performance operations. All other parts same as regular.

3. These are Schrader valve assemblies. Contact their World Headquarters, Monroe, N.C., U.S.A. Telephone (704) 289-4535 for additional information.

4. The nominal tube size reflects the minimum inflated outside tire dimensions and wheel diameter that the tube will properly operate. (O.D. = outside diameter at center line, width = overall tire width at widest point, wheel dia. = nominal diameter of wheel, tire bead and tube opening.)

5. Valve Shape: B = Bent, STR = Straight.

6. Valve Location is the distance the centerline of the valve is located from the centerline of the tube.
