INTRODUCTION
Tire under-ination is a well-known problem in the trucking
industry. Research from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA) shows that fewer than 55% of all truck
tires are within 5 PSI of their target tire pressure. This means
billions of dollars are lost each year due to increased fuel
consumption, tread wear, tire blowouts and other operational
issues. According to a eld test conducted by the U.S.
Department of Transportation, optimal tire ination can save a
eet over $2,200 annually per tractor-trailer while saving time
and improving safety.
The Halo Tire inflator
Aperia Technologies is proud to offer the Halo Tire Inator as
the leading retrot, auto-ination solution for both tractors and
trailers. The Halo is a completely mechanical, rotational pump,
compatible with dual or wide-base tires and is the rst standalone
tire ination technology for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles.
As an easy-to-install, bolt-on device, it can be mounted in 5-10
minutes per wheel-end and does not require connection to an
onboard air compressor.
