The set holds four valves and an installation multi-tool. It is made for 4x4s, overland vehicles and camper trailers that air down before sand, mud or rocky ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy This Product\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAiring down is one of the most repeated jobs on any off-road trip, and it drags when every tyre needs fiddly attention. The RCV stays on the valve stem, so dropping the pressure takes minutes and you are back on the track sooner. Fitting all four valves takes five minutes or less with the multi-tool in the box, so the routine at each trail head stays short.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew-on fit\u003c\/strong\u003e – threads onto the existing valve stem once the valve core is out, and stays locked in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo dismounting\u003c\/strong\u003e – the tyre stays on the vehicle while you fit and use the valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuick installation\u003c\/strong\u003e – all four valves can be fitted in five minutes or less\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation multi-tool included\u003c\/strong\u003e – removes the valve core, so no other special tools are needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour valves in the set\u003c\/strong\u003e – enough to fit each tyre on a four-wheeled vehicle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade for airing down\u003c\/strong\u003e – repeatable, on-demand pressure drops before sand, mud or rocky tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4x4 and overland drivers\u003c\/strong\u003e who air down before sand, mud or rocky ground.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCamper trailer owners\u003c\/strong\u003e who want to lower pressures quickly at the start of a trail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnyone who airs down often\u003c\/strong\u003e and wants a faster routine than fiddling with each valve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLocal Support from 4Matt Campers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are unsure whether the RCV suits your wheels and valves, ask 4Matt Campers; we help off-road drivers across \u003cstrong\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e FLX-7918985707606\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screw-on tyre deflator (Rapid Connect Valve, RCV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screws onto the existing valve stem after the valve core is removed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 minutes or less for all 4 valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool:\u003c\/strong\u003e Installation multi-tool included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRapid Connect Valve x4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation multi-tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOptional Fitment \/ Upgrade Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RCV goes on once the valve core is out, so a clean seal at the top of the valve stem matters.
