The Tyron Pressure Monitoring System

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 “blow-out” accidents are caused by incorrect pressure. What’s more - under inflated 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 Tyres are probably 30 to 50% under pressurized and not only is this very dangerous but it actually costing you money - in fact hundreds of pounds a year.

What does Pressure monitoring do?

A digital 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 adding pressure monitoring with our Tyron Safety Bands, you would have a tyre protection system like no other in the World. It would be 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

THE FINANCIAL COST

Lost fuel mileage Tyre Inflation & Maintenance 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.

Consider the following:
