Crankbrothers | Plug Mate Tire Anchor Kit

Lock the plug in. Keep the ride going.

The Crankbrothers Plug Mate Tire Anchor Kit is a secure, semi-permanent repair solution for riders dealing with major tubeless tire punctures and pinch flats.

Unlike standard tire plugs that can shift or become dislodged, the Plug Mate uses a sideways-rotating anchor that locks inside the tire casing. Its bullet-shaped design requires less effort to insert and works with most common tire plug forks, creating a more dependable repair without requiring specialized installation equipment.

Important Compatibility Note

Designed for tubeless bicycle tires. A compatible tire plug fork is required for installation and is not included with the kit.

Key Features

• Secure Anchor Design
The anchor rotates sideways after insertion, locking the tire plug inside the casing and helping prevent it from being pulled out or ejected while riding.

• Semi-Permanent Repair
Provides a more reliable solution for major tubeless punctures and pinch flats that may be difficult to secure with a standard plug alone.

• Easy Trailside Installation
The bullet-shaped anchors require less effort to insert and can be installed using most common tire plug forks.

• Wide Tool Compatibility
Compatible with Crankbrothers F11, F16, M13, M20, S.O.S., and Cigar tools, along with most common tire plug forks from other brands.

• Two Anchor Sizes
Small and Large anchors accommodate different tire-plug thicknesses and puncture sizes.

• Reusable Construction
The durable plastic anchors help prevent tire or rim damage and can be recovered for reuse when the tire is removed.
