The diameter of the inner tire is 5/16” less than the outer tire.Ģ. When the inside tire has a mere 5 psi less than the outer tire:ġ. Since duals are bolted together, the smaller tire is going to be dragged by the larger tire. (See the complete installation instructions when installing Cat’s Eye.)Īdvantage of Equalized Tire Pressure – If the pressure in your duals is not the same, the diameter of the tires will not be equal. Give each fitting an extra 1/2 turn to ensure a tight seal. Attach the Cat’s Eye gauge to the wheel or hub with the appropriate mounting bracket Finger tighten hose ends, inside tire first, until you hear the seals take hold. Make sure they are clean and in good operating condition.

At this point, the internal check valve is activated, isolating the good tire from additional pressure loss. When the “eye” is completely open, the pressure has dropped 10% under the recommended pressure and needs immediate attention. When the “eye” is completely closed, the tires are within 2% of recommended pressure and are equalized As the “eye” begins to open, the pressure has dropped 5-6%, a sign of a slow leak. With just a glance, you’ll instantly see changes in tire pressure. Its single airing point fills both tires at once, making the job quick, clean and easy.

Drivers need a reliable way to be aware of low tire pressures in a cost effective manner. As costly as that is, most drivers are not prepared to baby sit the pressure in those tires. The penalty is high–higher fuel bills, less miles per tire, inability to retread casing and sometimes missed deadlines. Underinflated tires cause unnecessary heat to prematurely damage tire casings, eat away tire tread and increase rolling resistance. Even small pressure losses are not only costly–they can prove dangerous, playing havoc with schedules, profits, and safety. The internal check valve will prevent the good tire from going flat in the case of a tire blowout or a broken pressure hose.Ĭat’s Eye is available with rubber or stainless steel hoses in lengths of 12” (17.5 tires or less and Super Single Tires), 14″ (19.5 tires) or standard 16″ (22.5 and 24.5 tires).Īre you willing to bet your profits that your inside duals are not under inflated? Underinflation is the single most costly element of tire maintenance. If corrective action is not taken, the “eye” will open up completely, activating the internal check valve. The bright yellow “eye” of the Cat’s Eye, opens up slightly if dual tire pressure falls 10-15% below the recommended pressure setting. The Cat’s Eye makes it easy to see if your tires are underinflated. This dual tire pressure equalization system works well to reduce tire wear and save fuel costs.
With just a glance, dual tire pressures can be checked on efficient walk-arounds with the Cat’s Eye tire pressure inflation system.
