Internal Reducer for EM Valve Inflation
Approx. 8 mm thread, rubber seal included | Screws into a large-format valve | Sold per piece
This internal reducer solves a common problem in shops that service large-format wheels: a standard inflation gun tip simply doesn't fit the oversized thread on an EM valve. Screwed directly into the large-format valve, it steps the thread down to a size that matches typical inflation guns, so no specialised fittings are needed to air up EM tyres.
What this reducer is for
Valves fitted on earthmover-sized (EM) tyres usually have a wider thread than typical car or tractor valves, which means a standard inflation gun won't connect without an adapter. This reducer screws into that valve and provides a thread of roughly 8 mm, matching commonly used gun tips. A rubber seal keeps the connection airtight while inflating, cutting down on air loss.

Frequently asked questions
Which valves does this reducer fit?
Large-format (EM) valves used on construction and mining equipment wheels, which have a wider thread than typical car or tractor valves.
What inflation gun can I use once the reducer is fitted?
The reducer provides a thread of roughly 8 mm, matching common, widely used inflation gun tips, so no specialised fitting for large valves is needed.
Does the reducer include a seal?
Yes, it comes with a rubber seal that keeps the connection airtight while inflating.
Do I need special tools to fit it?
