Hello everybody, This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Counteract Four Pack Kit of 10 ounce bags of Tire Balancing Beads for trailers and heavy-duty trucks and off-road vehicles. Now, these Counteract balancing beads are the economical way to balance your tire and wheel assemblies for the lifetime of your tires. These beads are designed to install inside the tires. Wanna zoom in to give you a better look of what's all included here. It'll include the four bags of balancing beads, and each bag will include the same thing.
If you noticed these are all sealed, this one I've torn the top off just to show you what's included in the bag, and everything I show you here in this bag will be what's in all the other bags also. So you have your 10 ounce bag of balancing beads, it'll have a vortex valve core, and then it gives you a choice of two different valve caps, a self-sealing valve cap and a double seal flow through valve cap. And again, these items will all be in these bags also, so it's gonna give you a total of four of the 10 ounce bags of beads, four of the valve cores, four of the self-sealing caps, and four of the double seal flow through valve caps. And besides these, they also include a injector bottle with a tube that you can install the beads through the valve stem, and it will include this valve core remover that allow you to remove the valve core in your valve stem, and re-install the new one, the other end is just a regular screwdriver. Now, the beads themselves, they are made of coated glass spheres, these balancing beads will not cause damage to the inner liner of your tire, and they won't clump regardless of excess moisture.
They are TPMS compatible, they are environmentally friendly construction, they are reusable and recyclable. Now, how these tire balancing beads will work, I just wanna pop up an insert here to show you what it looks like when the tire's rotating, how these work. Basically, what happens is once your tire begins to roll, this bag will break open inside the tire, and the beads will get distributed around its interior thanks to centrifugal force. Now, as the wheel continues to spin, the heavy spot in your unbalanced tire will pull up and down on your vehicle suspension, and this will cause the beads to shift in the opposite direction of that pull, so the beads will continue to migrate until there's enough of them on the opposite side of the heavy spot of the tire to balance out your tire. Now, these tire balancing beads will continuously and automatically readjust the balance of your truck or off-road tires, they do reduce vibration, and they'll ensure even wear to increase the life of the tire, even helps improve fuel economy.
Now, the installation again, they're very easy, all you have to do is take these inner bags that come out of here, put these into the tires when they're removed from the wheels, or as we mentioned, put the beads in the injector bottle and inject them through the valve stem. The beads will remain inside the tires, doesn't come loose to contaminate the environment, will not cause any damage to your wheels. One note I do wanna mention, that if you're tired does have internal TPMS sensors, you will need to break down the tire to install these beads. Now, this is a 10 ounce bag, the application for this size bag is gonna be 19 1/2 inch size trailer tires, 19 1/2 inch to 22 1/2 inch truck tires, and 15 inch to 22 inch off-road tires. And to know what size bag of beads you need, to order the correct amount of beads for your application, what you'll do is get the size of the tire from the sidewall of your trailer tire or vehicle tire, and match it to the tire sizes that'll be listed on the product page for that size bag of beads.
So this 10 ounce bag, if you go to the product page, it's gonna list the tire sizes that this will work with. And all the other ones we carry, all the other different size bags like the eight ounce, the six ounce, four ounce, even all the way up to 20 ounce bags, those product pages will list all the tire sizes that they'll work with. Also, in order to reduce the possibility of any valve leaks, they do include this Counteract valve core and the two different types of metal valve caps, you just choose either one, and they want you to replace the original valve core and cap with these parts that are included in every bag. These parts are made in the USA, it is for a quantity of four bags of beads for four tires. But that should do it for the review on the Counteract Four Pack Kit of 10 ounce bags of Tire Balancing Beads for trailers, heavy-duty trucks, and off-road vehicles..
