Adaptor for filling and draining the tyres with fluid
- Essential for working with tyres of 4x4 cars, as well as agricultural or industrial tyres - valve stem fi16 mm.
Advantages of inflating tyres with fluid:
- improved traction in hard conditions (e.g. bulldozers, graders),
- no risk of tyre skidding,
- lower fuel consumption,
- improved car stability.
It is recommended to fill up to 75% of the tyre's internal volume. Larger volumes are unsafe (tyre pressure can go up at any time).
