Similar to another reviewer I have a tube in a wheelbarrow tire that when it looses too much air the valve step retreats inside the wheel, the proper fix is to fix the tube but that's a hassle, one of these angled valve stem extenders is a lot easier. Unfortunately it does stick out past the rim so I am susceptible to snagging it on something but it does rotate so I should be ok.I have a set of rims with AG tires for my garden tractor, I was hoping the 12" braided line would allow me to snake through the rim and wheel weight to get the valve stem on the outside of the rim but there wasn't enough room between rim and wheel weight. I opted for one of the angled extensions to make it easier to reach in and add air with the wheel weights on.While the valve extenders are made of a combination of Nickle plated brass and stainless steel the caps are steel, too bad these were not Nickle plated brass as well to prevent corrosion.

The number of times I've struggled to get inflator nozzles aligned with partially-buried tire valves are now a thing of the past, thanks to this kit of stainless steel extensions that also includes 5 new Schrader valves for leaking tubes&tires. My only regret is that I didn't come across this set years ago.For some reason, my motorcycle and wheelbarrow tires have conspired to make keeping tires properly inflated difficult. The bike's valves are impossible close to the mag spokes of the wheels, and the wheelbarrow tube insists upon retreating into the wheel when the air leaks out. With the installation of one of the kit's extensions, the days of retrieving tube valves fro inside tires using (awkwardly) needle nose pliers ate finally behind me. The kit includes enough fixed and flexible extensions that I think my inflation challenges are finally all behind me. I also appreciate the valves coming with screw-on valve covers to keep the valves free of dirt and corrosion (see photos).My opinion is you will never regret buying this kit, even if you make use of only one of the kit's components. This kit is a real problem-solver, so recommending it is a cinch. 5 out of 5.
