BALANCING COMPOUND

 Easy balancing of truck wheels

The alternative to classic balancing of truck tires with balancing weights!
Simply fill bags or loose powder into tires - done. 
Balancing with HOFMANN POWER WEIGHT is that easy.


It's that simple -
see for yourself!


The HOFMANN POWER WEIGHT advantage

  • Result of comprehensive tests and material analysis
  • Consists of a carefully selected mineral compound
  • Resistance to environmental influences, high density and high temperature resistance
  • Each grain is coated with a special coating
  • Smooth, resistant and non-abrasive surface
  • Protects tires & inner butyl liner


Type 505 with Fusion Technology

Perfect balancing result due to Fusion Technology

  • Carefully mixed particles in two sizes 
  • Improved flow behavior
  • Better distribution in the tire 
  • Works against static as well as dynamic imbalances

Easy handling & application

  • Intelligent dispenser box with minimal space requirement
  • The box can be placed directly near the tire mounting area 
  • This eliminates the need to go to the shelf Bags can be removed through the dispenser opening at the front or through a resealable lid 
  • The lower price per box due to the smaller packaging unit is also worthwhile for workshops without particular commercial vehicle specialization

Everything in one bag

  • Each bag contains everything needed for use: One valve insert with filter and one valve cap.
  • Shrink-wrapped directly in the upper, detachable area 
  • Pictograms on the back of the bag show step by step how to use the product 
  • Extra valve cap indicates the use of balancing compound in the tire

Instructions Type 505  

  1. Apply assembly paste sparingly to avoid possible sticking.
  2. Select the correct bag based on the tire size and our table.
  3. Cut off the small perforated part with the valve insert and valve cap. Simply place the bag in the tire to be fitted. The bag dissolves by itself.
  4. Replace the valve insert and screw on the special indicator valve cap*.

*Indicates that balancing powder is present in the tire. Prevents unpleasant surprises during disassembly and the penetration of balancing particles into the valve.

Instructions Type 504

  1. Apply assembly paste sparingly to avoid possible sticking.
  2. Use the filling quantity table to determine the correct dosing quantity.
  3. Use the dosing spoon to add the correct amount to the unmounted tire.
  4. Replace the valve insert and screw on the special indicator valve cap*.

*Indicates that balancing powder is present in the tire. Prevents unpleasant surprises during disassembly and the penetration of balancing particles into the valve.


Frequently asked questions

WHAT IS BALANCING COMPOUND?

  • Alternative to classic balancing with balancing weights and balancing machine 
  • Suitable for medium and heavy trucks 
  • For speeds up to 100 km/h TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system), tire & inn tyre liner tested

HOW DOES BALANCING COMPOUND WORK?

  • Initially distributed evenly on the inner wall of the tire while driving (due to centrifugal force). 
  • In the event of an imbalance, the centrifugal force of the heavy spot increases with increasing speed, causing the wheel to wobble and bounce. The balancing powder automatically settles against the heavy point and thus compensates for the imbalance. 
  • Thanks to the flexible positioning of the balancing powder, the optimum balance is always achieved without further effort, even if the unbalance changes.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF BALANCING COMPOUND COMPARED TO CLASSIC BALANCING?

  • Simple application without balancing machine and without weights 
  • No rebalancing necessary. This saves time and costs. 
  • Sustainable solution: lead-free and continuous balancing

WHAT IS FUSION TECHNOLOGY?

The balancing powder type 505 with FUSION TECHNOLOGY consists of two different sizes of balancing grains: 
1. large, red grains: concentrate in the center of the tire and compensate for static imbalance. 
2. small, blue grains: move outwards and reduce the wobble of the wheel caused by dynamic imbalance
