ABSTRACT:
A tool tip is inserted from the inside of the tire into a hole in a tire crown by turning the tool tip as it is pressed against the tire. The tool tip is mounted on a hollow tool having a cylindrical insert receiving chamber. An insert is pushed by a plunger out of the receiving chamber in the hollow tool through a tapered portion into a compression chamber in the tool tip. The compression chamber has a diameter smaller than the diameter of the insert so that when the insert is ejected from the hollow tool it will expand to fill the hole in the tire. The insert is also tapered to engage the tapered portion between the receiving and compression chambers. The plunger has a plunger head with a substantially flat pushing surface and knurled edges which the operator can manually grip and push. The outside of the hollow tool is also shaped for manual gripping to turn the hollow tool and tool tip in the same direction during insertion and removal of the tool tip from the tire to leave an undamaged insert in the hole.
