It has been proven in two separate university tests that balancing all truck tires and complete wheel assemblies on trucks and trailers with Counteract Balancing Beads will improve fuel economy and tire life. There also are many other benefits such as ride improvement, reduction in total vehicle vibrations and its damaging effect on all parts of the trucks, including the power train. Why then are some trucking companies slow in accepting these scientific results?
Why the practice of balancing all truck tires and complete wheel assemblies is not already an accepted practice?
Is it that all other previous technology does not apply well to the task of balancing complete wheel assemblies on trucks and trailers and that is the reason it is not already an accepted practice by truck fleets? By looking at the different methods of balancing truck tires, it becomes apparent that is the case. For example, machine balancing of the complete wheel assembly as a unit on rear wheels is nearly impossible and therefore not practiced. Another method, free flowing internal inertia balancing also has setbacks; they all go in and out of balance at every stop, start and turn. Ten or eighteen tires out of balance at the same time are not desirable. Presently, there is only one product on the market that enables balancing all tires and complete wheel assemblies without any of the above problems and that is Counteract Balancing Beads. This is the product that the university tests were conducted on, the Auburn University type II TMC and S.A.E test and the Brazilian Federal University test. When there are billions of dollars in savings and millions in potential increased business, there will always be controversy and influence peddling.
There is also an ongoing effort by our competitors to discredit these university tests and prevent this technology from receiving the publicity it deserves from the media in the USA. Yet in contrast, the world tire manufacturing industry has taken great interest by inviting Counteract Balancing Beads for the fourth time to speak on this ingenious technology at their annual Tire Technology Expo held in Germany.
If you are receiving conflicting reports or anyone advises you that it is not necessary to balance all complete wheel assemblies with our product on highway trucks and trailers, ask them to put it in writing as you may want to recover your wasted dollars at a later date.
Regardless of the above obstacles and restraints, the move to balance all wheel assemblies has started more and more truck and bus companies testing and now balancing all complete tire and wheel assemblies to take advantage of the benefits it delivers. California environmentalists have also taken notice.
Counteract Balancing Beads are now 100% made in the USA, proven to be completely trouble free in millions of applications and require no extra labor to install besides throwing a pre-measured package in the tire at installation time.
