Caffélatex ZOT! Nano is a catalyst that instantly activates and solidifies Caffélatex sealant. Functioning as the chemical equivalent of a tire plug, it’s useful in case of relevant punctures (up to 10mm in size, well above the capacity of any liquid sealant).
Caffélatex ZOT! Nano is a polymerization catalyst that instantly coagulates Caffélatex, useful in case of relevant tire damages. When a big (between 5 and 10mm) puncture occurs and Caffélatex sealant comes out of the hole without repairing it, ZOT! can be injected through the hole itself: the “catalyzed” Caffélatex will solidify and repair the damage.
Size: 10ml

• Caffélatex ZOT! Nano instantly solidifies Caffélatex sealant, helping it fix big punctures
• ZOT! Nano solidifies Caffélatex sealant locally in the puncture area and only when needed
Caffélatex ZOT! Nano (10 ml) is the improved version of our original ZOT! This Caffélatex-specific catalyst is contained inside a small, squeezable 10ml bottle, ending with a 10 mm long, 1 mm diameter metal needle. ZOT! activates Caffélatex (or Espresso / Espresso Doppio) sealant with surgical precision, without enlarging the puncture.
The metal needle allows precise injection of ZOT!, even inside small punctures. ZOT!, engineered to specifically work with Caffélatex sealant formula (also contained insideEspresso and Espresso Doppio cartridges), coagulates Caffélatex locally, without reducing its normal lifespan inside the tyre. One bottle of ZOT! is enough for 2 to 5 uses.
Forget it on the bike, until you need it: ZOT! stays on the side of the bottle cage, held by its specific clip. ZOT! bottle can be easily opened/re-sealed with a practical silicone plug. The small size and reduced weight make it good also for weight conscious cyclists.
Notes: Caffélatex has to be liquid inside the tire when the puncture occurs (ZOT! by itself has no sealing properties, it simply catalyzes Caffélatex solidification).
While ZOT! + Caffélatex can function on tires with inner tubes, tubeless tires are the easiest to work with.
The wheel can be positioned with the puncture on top. After inserting the tip of ZOT! bottle and squeezing it INSIDE the tyre, the wheel should then be rotated taking the puncture to the lowest point, to make sure a maximum of Caffélatex gets to the critical area, for a chance to repair it.
IMPORTANT: simply pouring ZOT! on the outside of the tyre, won’t fix major damages. For best results, insert ZOT! bottle needle through the hole and inside the casing (to create a physical plug of solid Caffélatex inside the tyre).
