Gunson has introduced a static wheel balancer, to allow for quick and easy wheel balancing.
Static balancing ensures that the tyre is balanced around its circumference, even as it deforms with speed, temperature and pressure. This reduces vibrations at high speeds and enhances tyre tread life.
Particularly suited to cross-ply and bias-belted tyres, the wheel that is to be balanced is centred on a machined aluminium cone, allowing all types of wheels with centre holes with a diameter of 38–101.6mm to be balanced. The value of this is then read using a fluid bubble level. The base is cast aluminium and includes wells for balance weights.
