Trucks usually suffer significant tire wear due to various road conditions and driving habits on long-distance and regional travel, especially when the wheel assemblies are out of balance.
Trucks’ tire wear is an inevitable eventuality, but uneven tire wear can be prevented. A balanced wheel assembly has a positive impact on your truck’s tires’ lifespan, plus countless benefits on the overall performance of the vehicle.
Thanks to the memory technology of abc’s balancing beads, we offer fleet managers the best option in tire balancing they can find on the market. Our tire balancing beads for fleets will allow your trucks to reduce vehicle vibration premature and irregular wear to maximize tire life.
How Can An Out-Of-Balance Wheel Assembly Affect Your Vehicle?
Out-of-balance wheel assembly can be intensified when a vehicle comes across the first bump in the pavement, uneven highways with holes and other road conditions.
Many fleet owners overlook the importance of a balanced wheel assembly and the benefits it can bring to the vehicle’s performance. Out-of-balance wheel assemblies can cause poor fuel mileage and premature tire wear.
Vehicle handling, premature/uneven tire wear and vibration issues can also be caused by misalignment, mismouting, improper inflation pressures, inadequate or poorly adjusted wheel bearing and breaks. All of which have a severe impact on your vehicle. Further consequences are higher fuel consumption.
How Our Balancing Beads Offer Complete Balance
Traditional spin balancing only balances half the axle in, meaning just the tire and wheel. abc’s balancing beads balance the complete axle end meaning , the tire, the wheel, and all the wheel assembly’s moving components for the life of the tire.
Our balancing beads are unique due to their memory technology. The beads are stabilized in place through naturally occuring electrostatic charges between the glass and rubber, keeping the axle-end in complete balance at all speeds, even at a stop.
With abc Balancing Beads and a completely balanced axle end, truck drivers ride complaints are reduced due to vibration related concerns. Your fleet will benefit from reduced rolling resistance, cooler running tire temperatures, reduced tread wear, and improved fuel economy, to name a few.
