DO I NEED AN AIR PRESSURE GAUGE?
A truck air pressure gauge can be a significant addition to any truck for several key reasons. Having precise, readily-available readings can be extremely beneficial for truck drivers, especially when towing large hauls over long distances. Rather than realizing there’s a problem after you’ve lost a significant amount of pressure, an analog or digital air pressure gauge will provide you with accurate readings in real time to demonstrate whether levels are slowly decreasing or running too low to begin with. A low air pressure gauge keeps you up to date on the stability of your truck’s air systems, which in-turn provides invaluable safety benefits as well.
AIR HORNS AND AIR LEVELING KITS
Air pressure gauges work in tandem with truck features such as air horns and air leveling kits. In use with an air horn, this gauge will monitor the pressure levels within your horn and make sure that it is receiving enough air pressure to work at full capacity. These MaxTow gauges can play an extremely important role with air leveling kits as well, one which can be vital when used in conjunction with work applications. Your truck is designed for safe towing and hauling. However, when fully loaded, that weight can shift and throw off the truck’s balance, even affecting steering and breaking. Air leveling kits -- also known as air suspension kits, air springs and air bags -- act as additional support for your truck, reinforcing the weight of the load you’re carrying. As the name of the system reflects, any additional weight added to your truck will remain level and in balance during the drive, as the system will help to adjust and compensate for the additional haul.
