I'm New Here
I have had 4 flat tires in the last year on my RV-7A, all 3 gear. In each case, a new tire and tube was installed. The tubes seem to be good for about 30 landings before a pin hole leak forms in the side wall of the tube. I am installing with tire talc, the wheels are new with all surfaces smooth. Wheel halves are torqued and tires inflated to about 26 psi in mains, 22 or so in nose. I know tubes are not being pinched during inflation. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I seem to be getting defective tubes. I'm working with Desser to try and identify the problem.
