Valve core - Typ 504, balancing powder
Product number: 0401-5234-002
The special valve core prevents the penetration of balancing components into the valve.When should metal tyre valves be changed? The best thing is to change the tyres every time!The metal valves are subjected to enormous stress during their service life and are exposed to many different environmental influences. These include varying levels of ozone, solar radiation and the use of chemicals. It does not matter whether it is an Auto tyre valve, truck or bicycle or what material (rubber or metal) it is.Therefore, every time a tyre is changed in the workshop, not only the tyres and rims but also the valves should be inspected and tested. A safe driving experience can only be guaranteed with a regular check of the rim valves. Potential tyre pressure loss can be caused by defective metal or rubber valves. In addition, external damage to the rim valve or corrosion of the valve core can also be responsible.The consequences of tyre pressure loss include various safety risks, with increased tyre wear, increased rolling resistance and increased fuel consumption being among the less dangerous. However, a broken metal tyre valve can have the negative effect of increasing the braking distance and can lead to unsafe driving with the risk of losing control of the vehicle.In order to minimise the safety risk and to achieve an optimal driving experience, we advise you to have the tyre valves and rim valves checked and replaced regularly.
Measuring spoon - balancing powder
Product number: 0401-0025-018
Dosing spoon for measuring the balancing powder in the tyre. A filling table is printed on each bucket of balancing powder type 504. Our tyre fitting tools make it easier to fit and remove balancing weights and tyre valves for tyre changes. They ensure, among other things, that the tyre and rim can be separated manually without auxiliary power, that you can properly hammer in weights on motorcycle spoked wheels or that you can easily mount and dismount spoke weights.In addition to our tools for tyre changes, there are several other products that are indispensable for a high-quality wheel change. These include, for example, adhesive weights / impact weights, tyre irons, tyre valves / rim valves and TPMS sensors. You will find all products from this area in the usual high quality in our range of products.

Valve cap - chrome
Product number: 0401-5234-001
Valve cap for marking balancing powder in the tyre.What purpose do Auto valve caps serve today?In our wide assortment we offer not only valves but also valve caps for cars, vans, trucks, motorcycles, scooters, tractors and construction machinery. They are considered a necessary safety component for tyres. Only with functioning Auto valve caps can an optimal driving experience be guaranteed and safety risks such as creeping pressure loss or leaking valves be prevented. In addition, a metal valve cap with built-in seal protects the tyre from dirt and moisture.In addition to the tyres and rims, the valve caps of car tyres appear somewhat inconspicuous, but they also fulfil an optical function for the necessary purpose. No matter what kind of vehicle it is, a valve cap set with modern design can beautify your car or motorcycle. Depending on your taste, you can make your wheels shine with different coloured versions or original car brands such as Mercedes valve caps. There are no limits to your imagination and you can choose between various colours (black, red, green, grey, yellow, silver) and materials (metal, chrome, rubber or aluminium).Take the chance and set a fashionable highlight for your tyres with Auto valve caps!Look around in our assortment before the next tyre change and select the suitable set from the various car tyre valve caps.
