Park Tool VP-1C Vulcanizing Patch Kit
A vulcanizing kit makes a lasting repair because the fluid causes the patch to bond chemically with the tube rubber. The Park Tool VP-1C packs six patches in three shapes, a piece of sandpaper and a tube of vulcanizing fluid into a box weighing 17 g. It works on butyl and latex inner tubes, which covers the standard wheelchair tubes in this catalog, but not on TPU tubes.

Park Tool VP-1C Vulcanizing Patch Kit: common questions
Is a glued patch a permanent repair?
The maker describes the bond as durable and permanent when the patch is applied correctly to a clean, roughened tube.
Does the fluid dry out?
An opened tube of vulcanizing fluid has a limited life. Check it before a trip and replace the kit if it has hardened.
Will it fix a valve leak?
No. Patches repair holes in the tube body only.
