This kit is a simple yet very effective way to -

• Improve safety

• Reduce Fuel & Tyre replacement costs

• Deal with Health & Safety Compliance

By providing an easy way for your drivers to check the
pressure of their tyres and spare/space saver in a couple
of minutes and without visiting a garage or getting dirty.

FACTS ABOUT TYRE PRESSURE

• 1 in 3 of all road crashes resulting in injury are as a result of under inflated or defective tyres

• Tyre life is significantly improved by properly maintaining the correct pressures

• Fuel consumption is improved and CO2 emissions reduced by having correctly inflated tyres

• Tyre use is one of the most environmentally unfriendly
  consequences of vehicle operation.

• 80% of spare tyres are either flat or badly deflated

• Over 70% of drivers admit to not checking their tyre pressures

• 10% of fatal crashes are caused by the sudden failure of under inflated tyres

• In a recent survey of fleet cars almost 25% of vehicles checked were unroadworthy with over 80% of these being tyre related

• Tyre pressure dramatically effects the way a car handles

The Tyre Pressure Maintenance Kit will help you reduce your fleet costs and make your drivers safer.

FINANCIAL BENEFITS

Based on very simple calculations and in addition to the
Health & Safety benefits, the Tyre Pressure Maintenance
Kit can reduce your fleet costs by over £250.00 per
vehicle pa based on a vehicle covering 25,000 miles pa.

These figures are based upon a 1% improvement in fuel
consumption and a 15% extension of a tyres life.

Figures readily available from industry sources quote 2-
4% improvements in fuel consumption and up to 25%
improvement in tyre life.

HEALTH & SAFETY DUTY OF CARE

It is a fact that providing the tyre pressure maintenance
kit and advice on checking tread depth, as part of a
properly structured fleet policy, ensures that fleet
managers and Company Directors discharge their duty of
care in relation to these important and often neglected
safety components.

Aware of the safety and financial benefits we have
partnered hydraulic company Pirtek to supply to the fleet
industry. This simple yet effective product will ensure that
a vehicle's tyres, including the spare, are maintained at
the correct pressures.

The kit is easy to fit. Each pack contains an easy-to-use
“Quik-Check” pressure monitor, five special “Fill-Thru”
caps and an “Air in your Spare”. The “Fill-Thru” caps are
screwed into the valves in place of the normal dust caps.
The “Air in Your Spare” is equally easy to fit; the flexible
and strong hose is connected to the spare tyre valve and
then routed into the boot space; it also has a “Fill-Thru”
cap fitted.

All five tyre pressures can be easily checked by simply
touching the “Fill-Thru” caps with the special “Quik-Check”
included in the kit. The spare can of course be topped up
via the flexible “Air in your Spare”hose.

The product has been endorsed by TyreSafe, Britain's
foremost tyre safety organisation.

In terms of cost a pack costs £19.99 plus P & P, discounts
are available for orders over 50.
