INGCO AT-TG-Tyre Gauge A209-Haijai Tyre Gauge
Maintaining tyre pressure is important to make sure your vehicle runs properly. Low tyre pressure is harmful to both your tyre as well as your vehicle, and can lead to lower mileage as well. It can also cause an increase in the wear and tear of the tyre, and in some cases, can lead to puncture. To make sure you and your ride are safe, it’s important to ensure the tyre pressure is right. You can ensure this by using tyre pressure gauges, which can be used to check the pressure level in the tyre.
This analogue meter promises to offer heavy duty performance. It sports a 2-inch dial that clearly displays the pressure readings on a white background, which makes it easy to quickly read the measurements. The dial is shielded by a gear-style rubber cover for easy grip and protection. It comes with a 45-degree angled tip that lets you take the tyre pressure easily. This tyre pressure gauge offers premium quality with a clean design, making it really easy to measure your vehicle’s tyre pressure.

INGCO AT-TG-Tyre Gauge A209-Haijai Tyre Gauge
The AT-TG-TYRE GAUGE A209-HAIJIA Tyre Gauge is likely a tire pressure gauge, used to measure the air pressure inside a tire. Here’s a detailed description of tire pressure gauges in general:
Applications
- Tire pressure gauges are essential tools for ensuring proper tire inflation. Correct tire pressure improves fuel efficiency, handling, tread wear, and overall safety.
- Underinflated tires can lead to increased rolling resistance, which reduces fuel efficiency. They can also flex more, which can lead to premature tread wear and overheating.
- Overinflated tires can reduce the tire’s contact patch with the road, which can impair handling and traction. In extreme cases, they can also increase the risk of a blowout.
How it Works
There are two main types of tire pressure gauges:
- Mechanical: These gauges use a pressure gauge with a dial and a stem that inserts into the tire valve. When the stem is pressed onto the valve, the air pressure in the tire pushes up on a piston inside the gauge, which deflects a needle on the dial. The needle indicates the tire pressure in psi (pounds per square inch) or kPa (kilopascals).
- Digital: These gauges use a digital display to show the tire pressure. They typically have a sensor that screws onto the tire valve and a digital display unit that shows the pressure reading.
Components
- Pressure gauge (dial or digital display): This shows the air pressure reading in psi or kPa.
- Stem: This inserts into the tire valve to allow air pressure to flow into the gauge.
- Release valve (optional): This allows you to bleed air out of the tire to adjust the pressure.
- Air chuck: This is the end of the stem that fits onto the tire valve stem.
Using a Tire Pressure Gauge
- Remove the valve cap from the tire valve.
- Press the stem of the tire pressure gauge firmly onto the tire valve stem. You should hear a hissing sound as air fills the gauge.
- Hold the gauge in place for a second or two to allow the reading to stabilize.
- Read the pressure on the gauge.
- Compare the pressure reading to the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle. This information can usually be found on a sticker on the driver’s door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
- If the tire pressure is too low, add air to the tire using an air compressor. If the pressure is too high, press the release valve (if your gauge has one) to bleed some air out of the tire.
- Repeat steps 1-6 for each tire on your vehicle.
- Replace the valve caps on the tire valves.
