Correct
pressure is the most important factor for a tyre,
and without Tyron safety bands, it is the only thing
keeping you on the road. Did you know that 90%
of vehicles have at least one tyre incorrectly inflated
and manufacturers estimate that 75% of “blowout”
accidents are caused by incorrect pressure. Whats
more - underinflated tyres reduce your control and
increase stopping distances!
The Problem
We all know we should
check the Tyres so why don't we? ...Probably because
it's too much trouble and they look OK anyway. Problem
is when you can see you need air the Tres are probably
30 to 50% under pressurized and not only is this
very dnagerous but it actually costing you money
- in fact hundreds of pounds a year.
What does
Pressure monitoring do?
A digtial wireless system
comprising wheel sensors and receiver - it allows
you to see a readout of the pressure and temperatures
in your tyres and gives a visual and audible alarm
if your tyres need air. The receiver can be recharged
from the car cigarette lighter socket and will monitor
up to 6 wheels, plus a spare, with the addition of
extra wheel sensors.
The Complete
Tyron TPM System - total protection!
By inserting pressure
monitoring into the Tyron Safety Bands, you now have
a tyre protection system like no other in the World.
It is the ONLY one that allows you to remotely see
the status of your tyres, reducing the risks of tyre
failure and giving you control and run-flat capability
in the event of a puncture or blow-out.

Costs:
If
a Tyre is properly inflated, it will have less
rolling resistance thus maintaining a cooler
operating temperature, maximum Tyre life and
better fuel mileage.
