what air pressure for tubes?

[buzzfan]

Can anyone advise what air pressure hypalon tubes should be inflated to? I have to admit that since buying the rib a year ago, I've never checked my tubes, they always seem fairly taught and don't leak. But I wondered today how I'd reinflate them if & when necessary - foot pump, garage pump, what pressure, what type of adapter etc...

Any suggestions please? thanks in advance

If its otherwise not in your manual the typical number is about 3psi. Which doesn't sound like much but is quite firm to the touch...

Most foot pumps <barely> get to this value. You need a gauge to know for sure. If they are properly inflated in the water they are often overpressure on the trailer in the sun.

My tubes (Polaris Inflatables, Canada), are spec'd to 2.5 psi. Some are as high as 3.5. If you post a bit more info (like make and model) someone will likely be able to tell you definitively what the manufacturer recommends.
