FAQs

How do I read the tyre pressure?

Press the gauge firmly onto the tyre valve. The needle will indicate the pressure in PSI and KPA. Release the pressure by pressing the small bleed valve button on the side of the gauge if over-inflated.

How do I measure tread depth?

Insert the pointed end of the depth rod into a tread groove down to the base. Read the measurement indicated on the scale in either millimeters or inches.

What is the recommended tyre pressure?

Recommended tyre pressure varies by vehicle. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or the sticker typically found on the driver's side doorjamb for the correct PSI.

What is the minimum legal tread depth?

In many regions, the legal minimum tread depth is 1.6mm (or 2/32 inches). It's advisable to replace tyres before they reach this minimum to maintain safety.

Is this tool suitable for checking motorcycle tyres?

Yes, it is suitable for checking motorcycle tyres as it works with standard tyre valves and provides pressure and depth measurements.

Does the pressure gauge need batteries?

No, this is an analog gauge and does not require any batteries to operate.

Troubleshooting

Tyre pressure reading seems inaccurate

Ensure the gauge is pressed firmly onto the tyre valve to create a tight seal. Check for any debris blocking the valve. Compare readings with another known accurate gauge if possible.

Depth measurement is difficult to read

Make sure the depth rod is fully extended and clean. Ensure the scale markings are clear and attempt to read in good lighting conditions.

Gauge needle is stuck

Gently tap the gauge face. If the needle remains stuck, there may be internal damage and the tool may need replacement.
