ABSTRACT:
A portable tire valve extension is disclosed which is capable of enabling the inflation of an inner tire while it remains mounted to a second outer tire, as is often the case with many trucks, buses, recreational vehicles, and motor homes. A cylinder including an air valve (of identical size, shape, and configuration as is traditionally used on a tire) is located at one end of the cylinder, and an air valve (of identical size, shape, and configuration as is traditionally used on an air pump) is located at a second end. In a preferred embodiment, the cylinder is of approximately 12 inches in length and 1/4 inch in diameter, so as to allow it to fit through the rim of the outer tire to access the inner tire valve.
