Balancing all wheel p ositions has been proven to improve fuel economy up to 2% reducing rolling resistance for the life of the tires. The savings multiply because fuel efficiency increases as the tread wears down. In fact, the last 1/5 of a tire’s uses 6.5% less fuel than new tread. Yet most tires have to be replaced prematu to uneven wear, taking them out of service just as fuel economy peaks. Unbalanced tires also reduce tire life. More even wear yields maximum tread life extend the takeoff mileage. Balanced tires last up to 40% longer than unbalance saving money on equipment costs while reducing maintenance expenses. E QUAL w orks continuously to balance tires and the rest of the wheel assembly, which dampens vibrations for bushings, U-joints, lights, batteries and the overall suspension. Less wear-and-tear on the truck means lower overall maintenance costs for the life of the vehicle. A smoother ride also reduces dr iver fatigue and a comfortable driver is more likely to stay with your fleet. Fleet managers are charged with decreasing cost per mile.

The results? Like its predecessor, EQUAL FLEXX dampens vibration by adapting to the wheel and brake assembly, and its Dual Force active balancing compounds reduce total tire vibration. Rigorously Tested, Scientifically Refined, Fleet Validated IMI drew upon our unprecedented expertise over the past 25 years with EQUAL in the development of EQUAL FLEXX. We partnered with the foremost experts in vibration analysis and tire testing. Final validations were performed over the road, having hundreds of thousands of recent miles of truck data to draw upon. Tests have shown up to 15% better performance. Using an onboard wireless vibration sensing system, the controlled testing process gave engineers a first- hand look at what happens inside a tire in real time, producing empirical data that led to the exact compounds in EQUAL FLEXX. With 2X more vibration absorption power, EQUAL FLEXX is the new industry benchmark in wheel-end balancing, delivering more even tire wear, lower rolling resistance and the smoothest ride. SAND GLASS EQUAL EQUAL FLEXX THE SOFTNESS SCALE EQUAL FLEXX will never damage the tire casing, wheel or TPMS units. It does not void tire manufacturer warranties. As the softest internal balancing compound available, EQUAL FLEXX maximizes vibration dampening for the life of a tire. WHY DOES VIBRATION MATTER? Simply put, vibration is wasted energy, and wasted energy increases rolling resistance. EQUAL FLEXX absorbs this energy and the accompanying vibrations within the tire, reducing tire wear, lowering fuel cost by lessening rolling resistance, and delivering a smoother ride. Energy absorption happens everywhere on the tire’s circumference where vibration occurs, not just at the footprint. In turn, vibrations are decreased through the complete tire and wheel assembly. * Patent Pending NEW! Made with FlippingBook RkJQdWJsaXNoZXIy MTEyNjY3NA==
