A tire inflation valve associable with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensor includes a stem ending in a head equipped with a head body and an adjustable insert associable with the TPMS sensor by a connection element and hinged to the head body to rotate about a transverse axis and allow position adjustment of the TPMS sensor. The adjustable insert allows modifying inclination of the TPMS sensor according to different use conditions.
