Abstract
A high-speed tire repair tool includes a locating unit having an outer tube and a locating bar; a buffer element having a head and an inner tube connected to the head and received in the outer tube with the locating bar fixed to the inner tube at a predetermined position; a hollow pipe mounted in the outer tube, the inner tube, and the head; and a hole plugging assembly mounted to the head and connected to the hollow pipe, and having an abrasive element and a plugging strip. When the hollow pipe is driven to rotate and the outer tube is moved forward by a driving unit, the hole plugging assembly connected to a front end of the hollow pipe is quickly driven into a hole on a high-speed tire for the abrasive element to trim the hole and the plugging strip to air-tightly plug the hole.
