yes the are. I just wondered about the stress because of the angle.
I'm certainly no expert, but all the issues I have read about tpms sensors causing issues on valve stems have all involved runner valve stems. I have never heard fo an issue with metal valve stems..
FYI, although I have never used one, there are right angle valve stems that allow for a sensor and the ability to fill the tire without removing the sensor. They say to put the sensor at 90° to "protect it".... not sure how that works to protect it, but I haven't heard any issues with those..
I know FOBO TPMS for motorcycles offers a similar valve stem...
I think you will be fine screwing the FOBO2's on your metal stems. When I used FOBO's I used their metal T-stems, like Hattitude posted, and had no issue, although... I put the sensor on the end, and used the 90 to add air. The T-stems are handy for when you have to add air.
