Stan’s Launches Rolled Gold Tubeless Sealant

  • Ron 

Stans, the innovator in tubeless technology, has launched ™ Tubeless Sealant.

™biodegradable sealant is specifically formulated for high-pressure tires. Lab testing shows 700c x 28mm requires just 35ml of sealant —over 35% less than the competitive average —saving weight, with more confidence, at high pressure.

What Is it?

Rolled Gold™is a premium tubeless sealant purpose-built for high-pressure and gravel tires. Engineered with a high-latex, water-based formula and optimized particle technology, Rolled Gold delivers rapid puncture sealing up to 7.8mm across a 35–100 psi range, with primary testing conducted at 100 psi —all while requiring significantly less product to do it.

Rolled Gold seals a 700c x 28mm tire with as little as 35ml of sealant, versus 50ml for Stan’s Original and 55ml for the competitive average —making it the lightest, most efficient option available for road and gravel riders, without giving up the reliability Stan’s is known for.

Rolled Gold’s new, lower-viscosity formula is paired with 100% natural latex rather than synthetic alternatives, giving it improved adhesion to rubber and tires’ casing fibers that synthetic latex can’t match —and because it isn’t derived from petro-chemicals, it’s a more sustainable choice, too. Combined with a high-latex, high (but small) particle content, the formula is built for both speed and reliability.

“Rolled Gold is a high- road and gravel sealant requiring less material to seal at a faster rate, making Rolled Gold the lightest, fastest sealant ever,” said Stan’s Mike Bush. “From our experience in this market and from listening to Stan’s riders, we realized we could deliver a superiorproduct for road , that required less sealant –thus saving weight –yet with the same reliability as our Race Day product, plus you can inject this through the valve. So there are no sacrifices.”

Like all Stan’s sealants, Rolled Gold is engineered and produced at Stan’s headquarters in Big Flats, .

How It Works

When a tire is punctured, the sudden pressure differential drives Rolled Gold’s latex solution toward the opening at speed. The rapid pressure change across the puncture —similar to hydrodynamic cavitation —causes latex spheres in the sealant to burst almost instantly. Rolled Gold’s high-latex formula puts more of those spheres to work at the puncture site, while its high (but small) particle content accelerates abrasion and further bursting, building a physical plug fast, even across larger slices.

Long-chain latex polymers then grab onto the fibers of the tire casing, anchoring the plug in place before it cures into a permanent, -linked seal on exposure to outside air —all while Rolled Gold’s lower-volume fill keeps rotating mass down.

That performance starts with the latex itself. Rolled Gold uses 100% natural latex rather than synthetic alternatives —its higher molecular weight forms longer polymer chains, giving it greater tensile strength and stronger adhesion to rubber and casing fibers than synthetic latex can match. Natural latex is also less brittle once cured, so it’s less prone to crumbling and breaking down over the life of the tire —an advantage synthetics still haven’t been able to replicate. It’s a more sustainable choice, too: natural latex is plant-derived and renewable, with rubber trees acting as sinks, versus synthetic latex’s petrochemical origins –plus our latex is sustainably sourced, meeting EUDR standards for being deforestation-free.

Where Rolled Gold Fits in the Lineup

Rolled Gold doesn’t replace Stan’s other sealants —it performs better for high-performance road riding. Stan’s Original remains the dependable, versatile choice for everyday riding across disciplines, delivering trusted protection at a slightly more accessible price point, though its higher-volume fill adds weight and isn’t optimized for the higher pressures road and gravel riders run. Race Day is engineered with a higher quantity of, and larger, latex particles for maximum puncture protection in the most demanding conditions, but that particle size limits it from being injected through the valve, adding weight and an extra installation step most road and gravel riders don’t need. Rolled Gold is purpose-built for the space in between: engineered specifically for higher-pressure road and gravel tires, it seals just as-good-or-betteras Stan’s other sealants while requiring less sealant, keeping wheels lighter without asking riders to compromise on reliability.

Key Specs:

  • Pressure Range: 35–100 psi (2.4–6.9 bar).
  • Puncture Protection: Round punctures up to 7.8mm at 100 psi; holding at 97 psi post-seal.
  • Dosage: As little as 35ml in a 700c x 28mm tire —vs. 50ml for Stan’s Original and 50–60ml competitive average.
  • Temperature Range: -20°F to 120°F
  • Tire Type: Road, Gravel, and XC MTB
  • Installation: Injectable through the valve —Stan’s Sealant Injector or 125ml/60ml bottles.
  • Formula: Biodegradable, water-based, high-latex
