The NAC Rim Shield is a closed-cell foam tyre insert that lets you run lower tyre pressures for superior grip and traction — without the risk of pinch flats or rim-destroying impacts. For aggressive MTB riders tackling rocky Indian trails, it's the upgrade that transforms how your tubeless setup handles, climbs, and descends.

Key Features

  • Run lower pressures safely — superior grip and traction on rocks, roots, and loose terrain without pinch flats or catastrophic rim strikes.
  • Sealant-compatible — closed-cell foam does not absorb tubeless sealant, so the sealant stays in the tyre doing its job.
  • Rim protection — cushions direct impacts on sharp rocks and trail craters, protecting expensive alloy and carbon rims from cracking and denting.
  • Better control — reduces air volume for more controlled compression and rebound, improving cornering, climbing traction, braking feel, and descending confidence.
  • Sharper cornering — increases side-to-side tyre stability while keeping the tread soft and supple for grip.
  • Run-flat capable — if a major tear can't be sealed, the Rim Shield supports the tyre so you can ride out safely to the trailhead.

Compatibility & Sizing

Designed for tubeless and tubeless-ready MTB setups from 2" wide to 3" wide. If you're unsure of the right fit, message us with your wheel size (27.5" or 29") and tyre width, and we'll help you choose.

How It Works

The foam insert sits inside the tyre against the rim. It fills part of the air volume, which lets you drop pressure for grip while the foam absorbs the hard hits that would otherwise dent your rim or cause a pinch flat. The result: more grip, more control, and more protection — all at once.

Ride harder with more confidence. Free shipping on orders above ₹899.

Run it alongside the Instant Seal Tyre Sealant for complete puncture protection on rough trails.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a tubeless tyre insert actually do?
It sits inside the tyre and protects the rim from impact damage on hard hits — preventing rim dents, pinch flats, and tyre burping at low pressures. It also lets you run lower tyre pressures safely for better grip on technical trails.
Will it fit my MTB wheels?
Yes. Rim Shield fits MTB wheels in 27.5-inch and 29-inch sizes, with tyres from 2.2 to 2.6 inches wide. Check the specific size range on the product page for an exact match.
Does it work with regular sealant?
Yes. Rim Shield is fully compatible with all standard tubeless sealants, including our Instant Seal Tyre Sealant. The insert doesn't interfere with sealant action.
What tyre pressure should I run with a tubeless insert?
The insert is what lets you go lower safely. Many riders drop 3–6 PSI below their usual pressure once fitted, gaining grip and comfort. Start with a 2–3 PSI drop and fine-tune on familiar trails.
Do tyre inserts make your wheels feel heavy or slow?
There's a modest weight gain at the rim, but it doubles as protection. Most riders find the trade strongly positive: lower pressure means more traction, and run-flat capability means a tyre tear doesn't end your ride.
