The company’s Tire Runout Gauge measures both radial and lateral tire runout conditions, helping to eliminate irregular tire wear and ride vibration and lengthen the life of tires. The gauge utilizes a roller wheel placed against the tire tread combined with a gauge bar, individual low and high spot sliders and magnified measurement readout that quickly shows the amount of runout present.

K-Line Industries has introduced a Tire Runout Gauge (P/N AT32000) that measures both radial and lateral tire runout conditions. The use of this tool can help eliminate irregular tire wear and ride vibration and lengthen the life of tires, the maker said. The gauge utilizes a roller wheel placed against the tire tread combined with a gauge bar, individual low and high spot sliders and magnified measurement readout that quickly shows the amount of runout present. It is an early indicator of wheels or tires that need to be reworked or discarded, K-Line noted.
