ABSTRACT:
A cover device for protecting a pneumatic tire valve end has a hollow semi-flexible semi-rigid cap and an elongated flexible retaining member integrally attached to the cap. The cap is configured to be releasably force-fitted over the end of the valve to protect the valve end. The retaining member is configured to bend and encircle and thereby attach to either the valve itself or to a tire spoke disposed adjacent to the valve in order to tether the cap to either of these locations such that when the cap is removed from the valve end it is suspended in space adjacent to the valve end by the retaining member.
