Fitment and specs
- TR545 bolt-on valve stem with a 60 degree angle
- Chrome finish
- Fits the standard 0.382" diameter valve stem hole
- Effective length: 2.6"
- Cross-reference: TR543D
Bolt-on stems secure with a retaining nut rather than snapping into the rim. Tighten the nut just enough to seat the seal flat against the wheel, then test the base with soapy water before airing the tire to full pressure. The 60 degree bend points the valve outward where an air chuck can reach it without a fight.
Common questions
Is this the same stem as a TR543D?
This stem cross-references TR543D, so if the one you are replacing carries that marking, this is the matching style in the same 0.382" hole size.
Why choose an angled stem over a straight one?
The 60 degree angle brings the valve up and out of tight pockets, which makes checking pressure and airing up much simpler on wheels where a straight stem sits too deep to reach comfortably.
