{"product_id":"apex-design-usa-riv","title":"APEX Design USA RIV Rapid Inflation Valve - Standard Length","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSummary\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe APEX Design USA Rapid Inflation Valve (RIV) is built for one job: getting tyres back to road pressure fast. Because there is little to no pressure drop across the valve, the compressor does far less work - paired with a compressor delivering 120 PSI and 10 CFM, sub-10 second air-up times are achievable. Less restriction also means less heat and less wear on the compressor itself, so the whole airing-up routine gets quicker and kinder to your kit. The RIV is for dual valve-stem wheels only, and the sets of 4 and 5 include the matching RIV chuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrivers running dual valve-stem wheels who air down and up every trip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard air setups where compressor effort and heat are the bottleneck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGroup runs and events where four tyres need filling before the queue moves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds standardising on the APEX air ecosystem across every wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFaster Because It Flows\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard valve cores throttle airflow, which is why airing up takes as long as it does. The RIV removes that restriction, so the same compressor fills the same tyre in a fraction of the time. Compared with waiting on a standard core, the difference is measured at the trailhead - and your compressor runs cooler doing it. For onboard air plumbing, keep the fill line at 0.188 inch ID minimum so the valve can flow as designed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: APEX Design USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Rapid inflation valve (standard length)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: X02-02-007 (set of 4); X02-02-011 (set of 5); X02-02-013 (single)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Items: Sets of 4 and 5 include the RIV chuck; single valve does not\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel Requirement: Dual valve-stem wheels only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard Air Note: Minimum 0.188 inch ID fill line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment And Setup Checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm your wheels have dual valve stems before ordering - the RIV occupies one stem for inflation while your standard stem keeps its normal role. Choose the set size to match your wheel count, and remember the single valve comes without the chuck, so order the chuck separately if you do not already run one. Works with large shop compressors, onboard air systems and auto shut-off regulators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAPEX Design USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRapid inflation valve\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eX02-02-007 (4); X02-02-011 (5); X02-02-013 (single)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWheel Requirement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual valve-stem wheels only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePerformance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSub-10s air-ups with 120 PSI \/ 10 CFM compressor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOnboard Air\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin 0.188 in ID fill line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill it work on my standard single valve-stem wheels?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo - the RIV is for dual valve-stem wheels only.
