TRCH3 Core for Split-Body Tractor Valves
Air/water valve core | Cap and seal included | Sold per piece
The TRCH3 core is a replacement part used across all types of split-body air/water valves fitted on tractors and farm machinery. If the core gets damaged or starts leaking, there's no need to replace the whole valve — unscrewing the old core and fitting a new one is enough, which speeds up the repair and keeps the cost down.
What this core is for
In a split-body valve, the core is the part that holds pressure and lets the tyre switch between air inflation and water filling, used for wheel ballasting. Because the core screws in rather than being permanently fused to the valve body, wear or damage to it doesn't mean pulling the whole valve out of the rim — in most cases, swapping the core alone solves the problem.
Design and construction
Screw-in core, independent of the valve body.
Ready-to-fit set.
Easier grip for screwing the core in and out.

Frequently asked questions
Will this core fit my valve?
The TRCH3 core is a universal fit for split-body air/water valves used on tractors and farm machinery, including both the metal and rubber SNAP versions of the TR618A. If you're unsure, compare it against the marking on the core removed from your valve.
Do I need to replace the whole valve if the core leaks?
Usually not. Leaks most often come from the core itself rather than the whole valve, so in most cases unscrewing the old core and fitting a new one is enough — and it's quicker and cheaper than replacing the entire valve.
What are the knurled edges for?
They make the core easier to grip when screwing it in or out, especially when fitting it by hand or with basic tools.
Does the cap come included?
Yes, the core is sold together with a cap and a seal, so it's ready to fit right after purchase.
