Longacre Racing Products is a well known name in electronic tools and other components in the racing industry, with their line of computer scales, gauges, in-car timers, steering wheels, pit equipment, and many other products. Here at IMIS, Longacre is featuring one of their newest tools, the Temperature Compensating Digital Tire Pressure Gauge.
When checking tire pressures at differing temperatures, this gauge will compensate or correct the tire pressures back to a standard temperature. You simply take the temperature of each tire using the attached probe and the gauge will instantly show the corrected pressure for each temperature. If one tire were at 80 degrees and the other at 95 and both are set at 32.3 psi, when the second tire cools to 80 degrees the actual pressure would be 31.0 psi. This is where Longacres’ gauge comes in to play for serious racers that want complete control and accuracy of their tire temperatures.
The gauge can be used as a traditional tire pressure gauge that will display all four tire pressures by pressing the Store Memory button. The gauge will read pressures up to 100 psi, and is accurate throughout the range to 1/10 of a pound. It can also serve as pyrometer by inserting the probe into the tire. Once the temperature stabilizes, pressing the Store Memory button will display all 12 temperatures on the screen at once.
The Temperature Compensating Digital Tire Pressure Gauge comes with an adjustable length probe, back-light for night use, three bleed buttons (use 1, 2 or all 3 buttons for faster bleed off), a swivel angle chuck, and silver storage case.
