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 unboxed products causes’ confusion and uncertainty, leading to incorrectly and underinstalled 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

Our Shock absorber tester was designed to save time and money. The unit tests shock absorbers while they are still fitted to the vehicle. This easy to use device is based on ultrasonic distance measuring technology and has a place in every workshop.

This unit will identify faulty shock absorbers which increases customer safety and at the same time creates profits for the workshop by replacing the faulty shock absorbers.

The unit does not need any electrical supply which means you can test vehicles inside or outside the workshop. It has its own printer as well as a USB interface so can be attached to a PC where the data can be analysed, evaluated and displayed in the form of graphs. These reports act as evidence to your customer that their shock absorbers needed replacing!

• Fast Print Printer • Quick processors and USB-interface • Storage space for 25 Cars • Device can be easily connected to a PC. • Customer Data can be easily created.

• The PC printouts can be individually configured with your own company logo in text.

• There is the possibility to update the device Software and the PC Software via Internet • Powerful re-chargeable battery • Symbol-Menu-Management • Battery buffered real time (no need to input the data and settings after battery change).

Air Operated Coil Spring Compressor This new exciting product saves time and ensures complete safety in the workshop.

Our revolutionary air operated coil spring compressor is probably the best on the market. Our units are found in tyre fitting shops all across the United Kingdom and have proven to be a safe and reliable unit. The Hercules is very easy to use and needs little or no training.

You can disassemble and re-assemble the shock absorbers (Mc Pherson type) in seconds!

The unique system of hooking the spring on four points assures the greatest stability in the compression process. The unit cannot be operated unless the front protective safety cage is in position.

Why waste time and effort when you can do the job in a fraction of the time with very little effort!

The most precious commodity in the workshop these days is TIME - This is where you benefit. You can strip a strut in literally seconds!

Various accessories are also available to make the unit higher and we offer heavy duty wheels to make the unit mobile.

Ask for a leaflet or we can email you a demo of the unit in operation. This is also available from our website www.buttsequipment.com

Beissbarth GmbH, a Bosch Group Company, have been manufacturers of high precision measurement devices for car manufacturers and repair garages since 1899, delivering to a worldwide market. Besides its core business fields of wheel alignment and brake testing, Beissbarth also markets tyre changers, wheel balancers and AC service units.

Beissbarth UK Ltd has been at the leading edge of delivering high quality product as well as an industry leading service back up since its entry into the UK in 1997. The company prides itself as being recognised as a leading light in the automotive equipment industry, borne by the many accolades and awards received over many years.

Beissbarth is integrated into the Bosch Diagnostics Business Unit of the Automotive Aftermarket Business Division. This has given access to the enormous potential of using the world renowned Bosch KTS system in conjunction with their wheel alignment range, a must as many vehicles on the road even today require a diagnostic tool to be plugged into the vehicles EOBD socket during a wheel alignment set-up.

For your chance to be the first to get their hands on Beissbarth's New Generation of wheel service equipment, come and see us at Brityrex in October. Our technical sales team will be available to answer questions and give demonstrations on tyre changers, wheel balancers/aligners as well as the new A/Ccellence AC service units. www.beissbarth.co.uk

With the head office on a five acre site next to John Lennon airport in Liverpool, offices in Scotland, Ireland and China, Kirkby has been at the forefront of tyre and wheel wholesaling and distribution for 62 years. For many years Kirkby Tyres has been associated with the ALLIANCE and DOUBLE COIN brands but is delighted to welcome BKT into the family for OE and Aftermarket replacement.

Kirkby Tyres is the sole UK and Eire agents for the extensive range of Alliance agricultural, industrial, forestry and earthmover tyres. Alliance has a proven record of quality and performance over many years and are approved and used by many OE manufacturers in the UK and overseas.

Here at Supertracker we are constantly looking to improve the products available to our potential and existing customers. We have a well established name in the market for products that deliver the precise operation and technical requirements in wheel alignment service to help increase company profit margins.

With this in mind the company has launched a Steering Angle Sensor Reset Tool. With the advancement in vehicle electronics, steering angle sensors are becoming a more common feature on modern vehicles. After correcting the wheel alignment on a car the steering angle sensor needs to be reset. When the sensor is reset to match the correct wheel alignment settings, this will also allow any stability control electronics in the vehicle to work correctly. The driving dynamics designed into the vehicle by the manufacture will be at their optimum.

We have also looked at what other features could be added to assist in offering a more complete service. Our Steering Angle Sensor will also feature Service light reset, ABS/EPB Electronic hand brake wind back, Tyre Pressure Monitoring sensors and EOBD fault codes for petrol and diesel engines. This gives the independent market an opportunity to generate extra income from an added service unavailable to them to date.

The new tool allows the resetting procedure to be carried out quickly and effortlessly often quicker than the manufactures own procedures. The unit is independent from the wheel aligner so does not have to be linked to a computer. The big advantage with this is that it can be used in conjunction with any wheel alignment equipment. To anyone owning a Laser Aligner this will be a tremendous benefit. www.supertracker.com

Prevention is better than Cure UK Environmental regulators choose Brityrex 2010 for major tyre trade campaign The Environment Agency, Scottish Environment Protection Agency and Northern Ireland Environment Agency are working together on new legislation affecting the tyre industry.

They have chosen Brityrex as a major platform for an important tyre trade campaign to raise awareness about the new legislation covering the chemical make-up of tyres and retread rubber.

With effect from the beginning of January this year new European REACH legislation states that extender oils shall not be placed on the market, or used for the production of tyres or parts of tyres if they contain more than the threshold limits of PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon). The restrictions also apply to the marketing of tyres and treads for retreading.

Some PAHs can be extremely toxic when released into the environment, for example by being deposited on road surfaces during use.

Both European manufacturers, importers and retailers need to comply with the new ruling; anyone found to be selling tyres containing PAHs above the restricted levels could be faced with enforcement proceedings. One of the problems for retailers and wholesalers will be that there is no visual test to determine the presence of PAH, which means they will need to be absolutely confident that their tyre suppliers are aware of and meeting the tighter standard. www.environment-agency.gov.uk

Air-Seal Products Ltd for the past nine years has established its premier tyre sealants in the world markets based on technology, which is solely mechanical in action and does not rely on a chemical re-action or glue based additives.

Their products are an important part of cost savings programmes for over and off road fleets to achieve the priorities of good tyre management. These are increasing tyre mileage, reducing fuel costs and lowering a tyre’s carbon footprint. The most important of these priorities is maintaining tyre pressures to achieve these objectives linked with greater safety by using their products. Their products are now being purchased by numerous tyre manufacturers, retreaders as well as numerous national and independent tyre dealers.

Air Seal Products are confident that tyre distributors will increase their sales and profit margins from the benefits which all customers gain from less expensive downtime and lower operational costs resulting from their technology which cannot be matched by any other tyre sealant. Their products are supported by first class technical service to leading tyre shops at home and overseas.

Air Seal Products look forward to meeting visitors at Brityrex 2010 to discuss how they will directly support your business. www.air-sealproducts.com
