SecondAir is the latest inovation in pneumatic beadlocks, holding both inner and outer tyre beads onto the rim and having a separate low profile tube to inflate the beadlock.

Each size is colour coded to identify easily what rim it is specified to. The 16" x 6-6.5" is Grey Belting / Red Beading.

An easily installed special valve is fitted to the normal air valve hole to inflate the tyre. Now you have 2 separate air pressures, allowing you to control with confidence the pressure you wish to run in the tyre.

SecondAir weighs less than 1.5kg each and being distributed completely over & around the rim while being inside the tyre presents no problem with wheel balance. Being inside the tyre the Second Air is unaffected by weather or damage by rocky terrain.

Why SecondAir?

When driving your 4 wheel drive offroad it is usual to lower tyre pressures for 2 reasons

1 - For comfort and a smooth ride.

2 - To lengthen or enlarge your tyres footprint which will give you
greater traction.

By simply lowering your tyres highway pressure from 38 psi to 14 psi (262 to 96kpa) you increase your tyres footprint by 37%

This increase in traction enables you to drive to more inaccessible locations. With low pressure, more grip allows you to drive those red clay steep tracks, mould grip allows you to drive those red clay steep tracks, mould a tyre around a rock or give you greater flotation over mud or sand.

However tyre pressures below 18 psi (124 kpa) run the risk of the tyre either rotating on the wheel rim or worse it allows the tyre to completely deflate and come off the rim. This allows the problem of dirt and mud to enter the inner air chamber or come inton contact with the tube (if fitted) thereby damaging the tube or causing resealing tyre bead problems.

Note - When ordering online 1 x purchase = 1 x internal beadlock (use drop down bar to select amount required)
