600x6 (6.00-6) AvTread Aircraft Inner Tube

The AvTread 600×6 aircraft inner tube delivers reliable air retention and durability for general aviation. Molded from premium butyl rubber for ozone, heat, and permeation resistance, this 6.00-6 inner tube is engineered for consistent performance from preflight to touchdown.

This tube/valve configuration is intended for use in Experimental and Light Sport Aircraft (LSA). It is not approved for installation in type-certificated General Aviation aircraft.

• Premium butyl rubber construction for long service life and low air loss
• Precision molding for consistent fit and easy installation
• Multiple valve options available: TR-20 (straight), TR-87 (short 90°), TR-67 (long 90°)
• Built to recognized aviation quality expectations (e.g., AS50141-type criteria)
• Ideal replacement for 600×6 / 6.00-6 aircraft tire tube applications

Selecting a high-quality aircraft inner tube helps reduce maintenance, minimize leaks, and maintain steady pressure for smoother operations. AvTread focuses on uniform wall thickness and reliable sealing to support confident performance in demanding flight conditions.

Commonly used in popular general aviation models that specify a 600×6 tire, including select Cessna (e.g., 120/140/150/152/172), Piper (e.g., PA-28 series), and aerobatic trainers such as Citabria/Decathlon. Always verify the tire size and valve-stem requirement in your aircraft maintenance manual before installation.

• Confirm tire marking “6.00-6” and match the correct valve stem (TR-20, TR-87, or TR-67)
• Use a light, aviation-approved talc during install to reduce chafing
• Inflate/deflate cycle once to remove folds, then set final operating pressure per your maintenance manual
• Pair with a quality 600×6 aircraft tire for best results

• Check pressure regularly; butyl helps, but temperature and usage affect PSI
• Inspect for valve-core cleanliness and proper cap fit to prevent slow leaks
• Replace tubes when tires are replaced, or at the first sign of aging or damage
