Flexible Valve Extension 160mm
Black rubber, flexible | Cap included | For cars, vans, buses, and motorcycles | Sold per piece
The 160mm valve extension is a flexible black rubber piece that lengthens the valve and makes inflating easier when access to it is limited — on deeper-set rims or tighter wheel setups, for example. It's the middle option in our extension range — 20 mm longer than the EXT140R, with the full line running up to 270 mm.
What this extension is for
The extension fits over the valve and routes the inflation tip somewhere easier to reach, so there's no need to remove the wheel or maneuver a pump into a tight space every time. The rubber it's made from is flexible enough to bend toward whatever direction is most convenient, while still holding a stable grip on the valve during inflation itself. Its small size and light weight make it easy to handle, and the included cap keeps the tip clean between inflations.

Frequently asked questions
How does this extension differ from the 140mm version?
Both share the same construction, material, and installation method — the only difference is length. The EXT160R is 20 mm longer than the EXT140R, giving a bit more margin on deeper rims or more demanding wheel setups.
How do I pick the right length from this range?
It's worth measuring the distance between the valve and wherever you'd rather inflate the wheel, then choosing a length with a bit of margin — too short an extension won't solve the access problem, while too long one unnecessarily raises the risk of it knocking against wheel components. The range covers lengths from 125 mm up to 270 mm, with 160 mm working well as a middle-ground option.
Can the extension be secured against knocking against the wheel?
Yes, that's exactly what our valve extension holders are for — a single holder for one extension, or a double holder for two at once, such as on dual wheel setups. The holder locks the extension in a stable position and protects it from vibration and impact while driving.
What does "flexible" mean for this extension?
It means the rubber the extension is made from can be bent freely to whatever direction inflation requires, while still holding a stable grip on the valve — unlike stiffer, straight tips that don't allow for that kind of adjustment.
