VS-8 Passenger Car & Light Trucks
The Fortune VS-8 is designed for passenger car and light truck applications, featuring a 38 mm reach and a Φ11.5 mm (.453″) rim hole fit. These PC and LT valves feature a Φ16 mm body with dual-grommet and dual-cap options, allowing buyers to select HRG1 or HG2 grommets and ET or BT caps according to their application requirements. This configuration provides flexibility in sealing components and cap selection within Fortune’s Φ11.5 mm rim hole valve lineup. For distributors sourcing .453″ rim hole valves with customizable component options, the VS-8 supports varied aftermarket service needs and inventory planning.

Fortune metal tire valve: the engineering advantage
The VS-8’s engineering advantage translates into three concrete benefits for B2B buyers. The 16mm mid-body geometry delivers enhanced structural strength versus 14mm slim-body alternatives, while still seating cleanly in narrow 11.5mm rim holes. The dual grommet option (HRG1 or HG2) lets buyers match rubber compounds to specific application demands—temperature, pressure, or chemical exposure—without doubling SKU complexity. Combined with the ET/BT dual cap configuration, the VS-8 offers a premium single-platform solution that consolidates inventory for distributors and brand owners.
Mid-Body 16mm Structural Balance
The 16mm body geometry delivers greater cross-sectional strength than 14mm slim alternatives, without the over-thick 18.5mm profile of standard TR416. This mid-body balance enhances pressure tolerance while maintaining narrow-bore 11.5mm fitment.
Dual Grommet Selection (HRG1 or HG2)
The dual grommet option lets buyers specify HRG1 or HG2 rubber compounds per order, matching sealing chemistry to specific environments—heat, cold, or chemical exposure. This rubber-selection flexibility eliminates the need to stock multiple SKUs for different applications.
Combined Dual-Option SKU Efficiency
With both dual grommet (HRG1/HG2) and dual cap (ET/BT) options, the VS-8 consolidates up to four product configurations into one base SKU. This quadruple-option flexibility dramatically reduces inventory SKUs while expanding application coverage for distributors.

Why Partner with Fortune for Metal Tire Valves
Backed by 30 years of dedicated manufacturing expertise (Est. 1996), Fortune operates as an ISO/TS 16949:2018 and TÜV SÜD certified direct manufacturer. We do not simply assemble sourced components; we engineer our entire range of metal tire valves—from high-pressure passenger series to heavy-duty commercial truck metal tire valves—from the ground up. By centralizing a 30+ engineer R&D team, 100% in-house CNC processing, and premium copper/EPDM formulations within our facility, we physically eliminate the high-pressure leakage risks common in low-end aftermarket alternatives. We deliver a verified, fact-driven B2B supply chain built for high-volume global execution.
dedicated metal tire valve engineering & CNC innovation
All metal tire valve product development and structural design operations are executed directly by our professional team of over thirty experienced engineers and technicians. Guided by our core principle to “develop with technology,” this team continuously scales our high-pressure metal tire valve production capacity—yielding up to 5 Million units monthly. By integrating over 100+ advanced automated CNC processing machines directly into our assembly lines, we mathematically guarantee a strict machining tolerance of ±0.01 mm for every valve thread and hex nut, ensuring absolute precision and airtight fitment.
ISO/TS 16949 certified metal tire valve production
Our entire metal tire valve manufacturing facility is governed by strict ISO/TS 16949:2018 and TÜV SÜD quality management systems. We do not rely on random batch sampling; 100% of our metal tire valves undergo severe physical testing, including automated high-pressure air leak tests up to 130 PSI / 900 kPa and Neutral Salt Spray (NSS) corrosion testing for up to 72 – 96 hours to guarantee OE-level durability. For high-volume B2B orders, manual counting is obsolete. Our packaging lines utilize advanced automated precision weighing systems accurate to ±0.1 grams, mathematically guaranteeing absolute counting accuracy (exactly 100 pcs/box) before any container is shipped.
high-volume manufacturing & port logistics
Operating out of a highly advanced 25,000-square-meter manufacturing facility located just 45 kilometers from Ningbo Port—the most vital port city in China’s Yangtze Delta—we possess the robust logistical infrastructure required to execute rapid, high-volume metal tire valve exports. This strategic proximity allows us to cut domestic inland transit to under 2 hours, ensuring strict and stable delivery lead times of 15 to 25 days for bulk full container load (FCL) orders directly from the factory floor to your designated global facility.
global OEM servicing & localized support
Our engineered metal tire valves are fully integrated into the supply chains of over 300 OEMs and Tier-1 aftermarket customers across 65 countries in the Americas, Europe, Japan, Asia, and Oceania. To bypass cross-border communication delays and provide superior, localized support for our partners, we strategically established direct warehouses and corporate offices in North America in 2014. By maintaining a constant local inventory of over 2 million metal tire valves, we guarantee direct 24 to 48-hour local dispatch for our North American partners, delivering factory-direct pricing with zero international shipping delays.
