When i used to be an apprentice mechanic about 20+ years ago, i used to do about a dozen or so puncture repairs per week and for about the 10 months i was doing it, they were almost all bung types.
But i noticed one day i came in there were no bung types left at the tyre area. But it had the same type you have in this picture.
I just prepped the inside of the tyre but grinding away the inner texture where it would be applied, the same as i did with bung types, then i applied some tyre glue, popped one of these on over the hole and glue, used a small roller type tool to roll over several times it to ensure it's properly pushed all the way down then after that i applied another coat of the rubber glue over the seams.
Sealed perfect first time every time with this type. Used them for about 2 weeks then the next stock of bung types came in, and i went back to using them.
