The GSP9600 QuickMatch wheel balancer from Hunter (www.hunter.com) uses loaded roller contact to measure runout (eccentricity) of a tire and wheel assembly and helps your shop eliminate wheel-related vibration.
The fastest and most reliable method to measure runout is with a loaded roller system that provides contact across the footprint of a tire’s surface.
The GSP9600’s roller quickly measures the entire footprint of a tire and will detect if a tire and wheel assembly are out of round.
Non-contact devices that measure runout only sample a small area of the tire surface, which can produce inconsistent results. Plus, non-contact measuring devices cannot take into account tire sidewall stiffness, which often contributes to vibration problems.
