Save Tyre Life

Centramatic continuously balanced wheels reduce the constant out-of-balance 'pounding' effect, causing side wall flex and heat build up, resulting in tyre cupping and premature tyre tread life. Additionally, they act as cooling fins, reducing heat from the tyre / wheel / hub assembly. Tyre life is enhanced!

Save Fuel

When all the vehicle's wheels are continuously balanced, the road-frictional resistance is considerably reduced, therefore using less engine horsepower to operate the vehicle. This results in reduced fuel consumption.

Save Money

With Centramatics, the cost and downtime of shop balancing is eliminated. Tyre rotation becomes simpler. Balance is continuous. Balance Rings usually pay for themselves during the second set of tyres.

Centramatic explained

The Centramatic on-board balancing system is a patented harmonic device. The balancer uses centrifugal force and deflection to automatically distribute balancing media precisely where needed to remove imbalance.

The balancer consists of a mounting plate and circular tube, with small durametal spheres and damping fluid making up the balancing media.
