A new automotive service tool from VACULA eliminates the fear of over-tightening the valve core in the tire valve. The Tire and Rim Association (TRA) has increased the recommended torque specification from 1.5” - 4” pounds to 3” - 5” pounds on the TR C1 valve cores. This new tool safely tightens tire valve cores to specifications including the mandated TPMS valves with sensors. The possibility of tech error is eliminated. When unscrewing a valve head for tire inflation, the simple-to-use Torque Tool functions just like any other valve screwdriver. But when the head is screwed back into place, an internal calibrator limits the torque to the specified value, making over-tightening virtually impossible. The tool eliminates unpredictable pressure failures—and their unpleasant consequences—that come with over-tightening tire valve cores. Maintenance-free with no need for recalibration, the VACULA Torque Tool is a must-have for Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) valves to maintain proper pressure. VACULA offers the Valve Core Torque Tool for the standard TRC1 valve core that requires a torque specification between 3-5 inch pounds established by the Tire and Rim Association (T.R.A.)
