Inner tube 3.50-8 for wheelbarrow tyre 8" Potreba

Product Information

Butyl rubber is the industry standard for common replacement inner tubes, offering a relatively cheap and readily available replacement product. Butyl is strong and resistant, and there are lightweight versions for those looking for weight savings - the Specialized Turbo range and Continental Supersonic tubes are popular versions. What are the differences between Latex and Butyl rubber tubes?

The following sizes are common for mountain bike tyres, regardless of whether your bike has 26in, 27.5in (650b) or 29in wheels. A 260x85 tyre would be 260mm high and 85mm wide. Converting these dimensions to inches gives us a tyre 10" high, 3" wide on a 4" rim. The modern equivalent size would be a 3.00-4.On bikes, Schrader valves tend to be used on lower pressure tyres, such as kids's bikes and mountain bikes. These are the same valves used on all motor vehicle tyres and are often referred to as ‘car type’ valves. Schrader valves have a core that is sprung loaded, and the central pin can be depressed with a narrow object to release air from the tube. The spring mechanism keeps the valve closed.

You must make sure you replace your inner tubes with a tube that is the right size according to the diameter and width for your tyre. The size is almost always written somewhere on the sidewall of the tyre. Inner tubes typically state a wheel diameter and width range for which they will work, e.g. 26 x 1.95-2.125", indicating that the tube is intended to fit a 26 inch tyre with a width of between 1.95 inches and 2.125 inches.As well as coming in pretty colours, latex inner tubes offer lower weight and rolling resistance than butyl inner tubes. They’re relatively expensive though and heat build-up can cause issues if you’re using rim brakes on long descents. Simon Bromley/Immediate Media This is the traditional method for marking car and van tyres, so is also used quite often for trailer and caravan tyres. The first part is the width of the tyre in mm, the second part, if present, is the height of the sidewall expressed as a percentage of the width, and the third part is the rim diameter in inches. If there is no percentage indication in the tyre size, the tyre sidewall height is taken to be 80% of the width. You may sometimes see a tyre with the 80% in the size eg. 155/80-13. The 'R'. when present within the size, means the tyre is of radial construction.

There is some overlap in sizes between 650b gravel and mountain bike tyres, but gravel tyres are usually sold in metric sizes as listed above.

Valves come in different shapes & sizes to accommodate a wide variety of applications & wheel rim configurations. There are four main categories that inner tube valves fall into & within each are a handful of popular valve models to choose from: For even more weight saving, latex tubes are significantly lighter than butyl tubes, plus there’s less friction against the tyre, resulting in lower rolling resistance.
