Over the past 37 years Kings Road Tyres has developed into one of the UK’s leading national wholesalers, offering the trade an inventory covering the entire spectrum of product from the smallest implement tyre to the very largest and heaviest sizes for construction and earthmoving machinery. The company has always recognised the benefit of trade exhibitions and events and was one of the original supporters of the first UK tyre exhibition held at Earls Court, London in the late 1970s. Since then KRT has been a regular and committed backer of dedicated tyre exhibitions in the UK and overseas. Group managing director Peter Gaster explains why: “We place great importance in building personal relationships with our customers and the best way of doing that is by meeting them in person and understanding their needs. It’s never been easier to communicate efficiently with advances in business technology, but there is still no substitute for face-to-face contact. That’s why our sales staff from around the UK and Ireland will be involved throughout the exhibition, giving them and our customers a chance to meet.” Looking back to the last Brityrex in 2007, Gaster says KRT enjoyed a very successful show: “In particular, 2007 proved that the visitors who attended Brityrex were all professionals who were there to do business. It’s sometimes difficult to quantify what you actually gain in sales terms from an exhibition, but we certainly achieved very buoyant sales during the show as well as follow up business from contacts we made during the event.” And he is equally enthusiastic about the prospects for Manchester in 2010. “I believe the show will come back stronger next year as the trade emerges from recession and looks to meet new customers and source new products. It’s important that as an industry we recognise that Brityrex is our show and it’s up to us as the main players in the industry to get behind it and make it work hard to deliver results that will benefit individual businesses and the trade at large.” KRT will be exhibiting a comprehensive range of products at the show, including its exclusive Kingstone brand and other well known makes. www.krtgroup.com
Hunter HawkEye Special benefits from recession wake up call The recession seems to have been a catalyst to change, as businesses have been switching focus to the revenue generating opportunities that quality wheel alignment servicing offers. “We are being approached from all sectors of the Aftermarket and despite the economic climate, the majority are looking to invest in the highest specification system, from the outset.” confirms Paul Beaurain. To launch a new product in a recession could have been a risk, but not for Pro-Align. The arrival of the new Hunter HawkEye ‘Special’ imaging aligner, in the spring this year, proved a vital ‘bridge’ for those who aspired to imaging alignment technology but only had budget for conventional sensor systems. The result is that its popularity has definitely exceeded expectations, and it is easy to see why. This two camera, ‘Linux’ based imaging alignment system, is simple and uncomplicated, giving live readings to printout in minutes. Drawing on Hunters wealth of knowledge over 10 years in imaging alignment, the HawkEye Special offers the key Hunter alignment software features. These include vehicle database and customer data bank, the distinctive easy-to understand ‘before’ and ‘after’ customer colour printouts plus the ‘out of harms way’ electronics and robust lightweight HEX polycarbonate targets. Add to this the security of the Hunter pedigree; with engineering to last and a minimal cost of ownership, all packaged up by Pro-Align’s dependable service and support. However the bottom line is that the revenue and profit potential the HawkEye Special offers any business, in return for this extremely competitive price, is what truly wins the day. www.pro-align.co.uk

Quick, easy, safe – and best of all, cost-effective. What better list of benefits for a new piece of testing equipment? It was developed to take care of the tough and arduous conditions found in garages dealing with trucks, buses and other heavy vehicles, but the TruCheck 1000 is also eminently suitable for industrial heavy duty applications Norbar Torque Tools has had huge success with its TruCheck torque wrench tester for the car market, and more recently for heavy vehicles. TruCheck will easily pay for itself by cutting down the time and costs involved in outside calibration. The TruCheck is an easy-to-use torque wrench tester with an accuracy of ± 1%, and a range of up to 1000N.m. The basic model has no changeable settings and is designed for click type wrenches – the operator simply sets a torque on the wrench, applies it to the tester and the actual torque applied is displayed on the clear LED screen. The TruCheck Plus version is similarly simple, but the user can also select the units of measurement and also whether the torque wrench is a click or dial type. In addition to the numeric display, a tolerance band can be set and the result (low, within tolerance or high) is indicated with an amber, green or red light. Data can be downloaded to a PC for storage or for the production of calibration certificates. Both testers are robustly constructed on a steel mounting plate well able to handle the maximum torque. The outer shell is polypropylene and the LED displays are visible in all light conditions. ‘For example, we all know the potentially catastrophic consequences of incorrectly tightened wheel nuts,’ said Philip Brodey of Norbar. ‘But we also know that many people in the industry balk at the cost and time involved in calibrating their tools regularly. So we’re delighted to be able to offer this simple and cost-effective tester to help improve safety standards across the board.’ For more information on TruCheck and the range of calibration services offered by Norbar, visit www.norbar.com

John Pullin of Haweka (UK) said that in today’s tough economic climate the importance of correct vehicle alignment cannot be over emphasised. Our equipment makes it possible for the commercial vehicle owner / operator to easily and quickly unlock the savings available from reduced fuel consumption and tyre ware.

The PRO-FIT and the TRIDENT, the ideal duo for effortless mounting & demounting of low-profile and runflat tyres DQN - DU QUESNE, the Belgian manufacturer of the PRO-FIT tyre-changer, has designed a new, patented tool making the mounting & demounting of the most rigid tyres a walkover: the TRIDENT. This ingenious tool is a help for the PRO-FIT tyre changer, allowing effortless mounting of runflat and low-profile tyres from 10’’ to 23’’ (up to 26” with the +3” optional CLAWS). The combined use of the runflat arm and the TRIDENT refrains the tyre from ‘creeping back’ over the rim when the turntable rotates. On tough, low profile tyres or Runflat, the result is amazing.

Brityrex Giveaway From Hofmann Megaplan Puncturesafe UK have traditionally sold into the high speed vehicle markets because our tyre sealant is so technically advanced it has been possible for us to do this without any serious competition. Because of the high quality and performance of our puncture prevention treatment which gives a permanent seal for the life of the tyre we were able to win an exclusive contract to supply Royal Mail Group for their 32,000 vehicle fleet, and when that contract expired it was quickly renewed with a new contract for a longer period of 3 years. Puncturesafe UK have identified a gap in the market of slow speed vehicles such as agriculture, grass cutting, materials handling, construction/building, ancillary, military, caravans and trailers, so using the knowledge acquired in the very demanding high speed vehicle market we have developed a very effective extra heavy duty “off road” grade that out-performs everything else that is currently available. Knowing that this new market is sensitive to price because of the cheap ineffective products that have dominated it for so many years, we have introduced our new grade at a price so low it will guarantee we will become the market leader in the shortest possible time. This new off road grade is supplied in 5 and 20 litre containers with dispensing pumps, plus 2 litres boxed for DIY installations. Why 2 litres? The industry standard “one litre’ is not enough to do an effective job in the majority of applications because of under installing. Why in a box? The absence of installation figures and full instructions with un-boxed products causes’ confusion and uncertainty, leading to incorrectly and under-installed product, which is one of the causes of failure with other sealants. Puncturesafe seals punctures caused by puncturing objects up to 12mm in diameter and because it is water soluble it can easily and quickly be removed from a tyre. www.puncturesafe.com
