PM/31 Tire Repair SS17-490TY TPMS High Temp Nickel Plated Valve Core Yellow Band

The PM/31 Tire Repair SS17-490TY is a high-temperature, nickel-plated TPMS valve core designed specifically for use with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensors and aluminum valve stems. Identified by its yellow band and red high-temp seal, this valve core is engineered to prevent the galvanic corrosion that occurs when brass cores are used with aluminum TPMS valve stems.

Key Features:

• TPMS-Compatible: Specifically designed for use with TPMS sensors and aluminum valve stems — brass cores are not suitable for TPMS applications
• Nickel-Plated Construction: Electroless nickel plating resists corrosion and prevents seizing in aluminum valve stems
• High-Temperature Rated: Red seal indicates high-temp rating, suitable for demanding driving conditions including performance and commercial applications
• Yellow Band Identification: Color-coded yellow band for quick visual identification in the shop
• Schrader-Style Fitment: Fits standard Schrader-type TPMS valve stems used across most domestic and import vehicles
• Professional Grade: Sold in bulk quantities, ideal for tire shops and service centers

The SS17-490TY is the correct replacement valve core when servicing TPMS-equipped vehicles during tire rotations, repairs, or sensor replacements. Using the proper nickel-plated core helps ensure a reliable air seal and long-term corrosion resistance in aluminum TPMS valve stems.
