Rusted down to the valves!

Not recommended! They seemed good at first but after a few months of use they were completely rusted on my valves and the only way to get them off was with a 10mm spanner and pliers (the spanner alone just turned the entire valve in the Rim). Long story short, the valves broke trying to remove them (note I have old rubber valves - no TPMS). At first I thought it might be a little surface oxidation from living in humid Florida, but after a couple of careful applications of penetrating oil they didn't budge. After the valves broke I removed the caps from the broken valve cores with a vise and there was white corrosion down the entire length of the threads - presumably from various metal corrosion. Save yourself the headache of a tire valve failure, or by all means use an anti-seize product.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Security
