Ultraseal brings safety
to your car and its
passengers..
Ultraseal tyre Life
Extender/sealer
has passed the test of time,
with a 36 year flawless
record in performance and
quality unsurpassed.
Strict Quality Control
Ultraseal
International, Inc.
maintains a strict quality
control program. From start
to finish, each master batch
is sample tested and must
meet a rigorous 5,000 mile
performance test prior to
being assigned a
certification batch control
number.
Some of our in-house testing
is performed on a
dynamometer test wheel,
which was designed to meet
the U.S. Army Tank and
Automotive Command (TACOM)
requirements. This equipment
allows us to run test
samples at specific speeds,
load requirement,
temperature, etc.
By utilizing a dynamometer
test wheel any designated
number of miles can be
accrued while running a
longevity/performance test,
thereby producing accurate
and reliable documentation.
Highest Testing Standards
Ultraseal
International maintains the
highest standards in quality
control by means of
independent testing
laboratories, In-house
testing, and actual in-field
test programs.

Documentation of
Standards
All of
Ultraseal's attributes and
claims are documented and
backed by federally
recognized independent tyre
testing laboratories,
independently controlled
fleet testing and includes
tests performed by
government agencies
worldwide.
Proven results
It is
virtually impossible for
Ultraseal to hide or mask a
dangerous wound. Over 36 years of worldwide usage
and countless tests which
have been performed have
proven that Ultraseal will
not seal a tyre that has
received a wound that would
weaken the tyre's inner
structure to a point that
could be dangerous.
The U.S.
Army Tank and Automotive
Command (TACOM) in
conjunction with the U.S.
Army Proving Grounds in
Yuma, AZ (YPG) tested
Ultraseal and substantiated
that Ultraseal "does not
mask catastrophic failures".
If a tyre
receives a dangerous wound,
Ultraseal allows air to
bleed, providing additional
time for the driver to bring
the vehicle to a controlled
stop. This safety factor
alone can prevent blowouts
from becoming a dangerous
situation. Many security and
law enforcement fleets
utilize Ultraseal for its
ability to provide a high
degree of safety and
reliability rather than just
Ultraseal's cost savings and
tyre life extension
qualities.
ULTRASEAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS
LUNAR MOON BUGGY
Testing
was conducted in desert
areas where the vehicle
encountered a great deal of
cactus and mesquite thorns,
resulting in many punctures and
costly delays in the
scheduled test program.
Ultraseal was purchased by
NASA for the Lunar Moon
Buggy's pneumatic test tyres
during R&D testing on Earth.
Ultraseal
prevented flat tyres during
the balance of the research
and development phases.
Since there is no atmosphere
on the moon, the vehicle was
fitted with non-pneumatic
circular tyre shaped mesh
wire frame units with a thin
material for the tread.

UNITED STATES
NAVY TESTS
In 1975,
the U.S. Naval Sea Bees
performed an extensive
in-field test on Ultraseal.
After passing all tests and
evaluations Ultraseal was
authorized to be installed
in Sea Bee construction
equipment and miscellaneous
vehicles all over the world.
Ultraseal has been the only
tyre sealant to qualify and
be established as standard
issue in the Sea Bee's
deployment packs for all
missions.
Flat tyres were virtually
eliminated in the
construction equipment used
to build and rebuild roads,
bridges, airstrips and other
specialized missions. The
command was so impressed
with the results that
National Stock Numbers (NSN)
were issued for Ultraseal
tyre Life Extender/sealer.
Ultraseal International has
maintained NSN numbers ever
since 1975. Ultraseal has
passed all military test
programs and continues to
supply all facets of the
U.S. Armed Forces and the
Government Services
Administration (GSA) fleet.
UNITED STATES POSTAL
SERVICE CERTIFICATION
In 1993,
representatives from GSA,
EPA and the Postal System
established a Generic tyre
Sealant Specification that
set the world's first
standard for tyre sealants.
Safety, Compatibility and
Performance (minimum 20,000
miles) were the basic
requirements for a
new/unused tyre sealant.
The specification also
required safety and
compatibility re-testing
of the used tyre sealant,
upon completion of the
20,000 miles.
With the approval of the
Postal Service, Ultraseal
International contracted
with the testing facility to
have the performance portion
of the test extended to
40,000 miles. No other
sealant has been able to
meet this rigorous
performance record.
Ultraseal tyre Life
Extender/sealer
is certified and approved
for all postal vehicles.
100,000 MILE -
INDEPENDENT TRUCKING COMPANY
TEST
An
independent long haul
trucking firm in conjunction
with a fleet maintenance
consulting firm establish a
two and one half year test
program which included
installing Budini computer
chips into tyres to
scientifically document the
advantage and cost
effectiveness of Ultraseal.
Comparing tyres treated with
Ultraseal against tyres
containing only air, this
program ran for over 100,000
miles. All tyres treated
with Ultraseal maintained
air pressure and achieved a
minimum of
25% increase in tread
wear over the untreated
tyres.
MAJOR TELEPHONE COMPANY
(ONE YEAR CASE STUDY)
A one
year case study by the
largest telephone company in
So. California (over 1,000
vehicles), showed that
Ultraseal reduced flat tyres
by over 90%. Ultraseal
thereby eliminated a
tremendous amount of
downtime and lost work
hours. Plus, eliminating
most tyre related road
service calls.
Throughout the year all
tyres maintained constant
air pressure (within one
pound of the initial
setting). Computer analysis
estimated a fuel savings of
10% - 13% (mostly due to the
constant air pressure
maintained by Ultraseal).
Current documentation
indicates that average tyre
life extension is expected
to be increased well over
30%.
BULLET PROOFING COMBAT
VEHICLES
An Army
HUMMVEE tyre treated with
Ultraseal's Extra Heavy Duty
(EHD) grade (combat formula)
survived a shot through the
sidewall with a 7.62 NATO
round during the U.S. Army
Combat tyre Survival Program
at the Nevada Test Center.
The bullet entered and
exited through both of the
tyre's sidewalls and
Ultraseal sealed the wound
instantly, with no
measurable air loss.

the training programs
established at Ft. Irwin by
Ultraseal International. All
branches of the U.S.
Military from all over the
world have benefited in
similar training programs
provided by Ultraseal over
the last 25 years.

SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT
TEST
Ultraseal
passed extreme flammability
and flash point testing
performed by the South
African Government and is
the only sealant approved
for use in tyres on deep
mining equipment.
MOSCOW TYRE RESEARCH
INSTITUTE TEST
In 1996,
Ultraseal International
received certification of
acceptance by the Moscow
tyre Research Institute (MTRI).
The tyre Research Institute
tested all foreign and
domestic tyre sealants
including Ultraseal tyre
Life Extender/sealer
and concluded that Ultraseal
is the only tyre sealant to
perform according to the
manufacturer's
specifications. Ultraseal is
the only tyre sealant
recommended by the "MTRI".
FEDERALLY RECOGNIZED TYRE
TESTING LABORATORY
Ultraseal
International contracted one
of the foremost independent
laboratories for testing
tyres (recognized by tyre
manufacturers, the U.S.
Government and listed as
approved by the U.S. Postal
Service) to perform a 40,000
mile tyre sealant test. The
endurance and performance
portion of this test doubled
the mileage required for
certification by the U.S.
Postal System.
TWO MAJOR TYRE
MANUFACTURERS TESTED
ULTRASEAL
Two of
the largest tyre
manufacturers in the world
have independently tested
Ultraseal. Ultraseal passed
all testing with flying
colors. The results add to
the claim that Ultraseal
tyre Life Extender/sealer
is by far the finest tyre
sealant in the world.
ALL THE
YEARS OF TESTING
All
testing has proven that
Ultraseal is actually a true
tyre life extender as well
as an exceptional sealant.
Ultraseal International,
Inc. maintains copies of the
various independent test
programs that will
substantiate the claims of
positive air retention,
positive secure repairs,
ability to extend tyre life,
endurance and performance.
