Product News, UK News

To really gauge how suitable a component is for a vehicle, physical endurance testing is the only sure-fire way to prove a component or assembly can function properly in the real world. This is why businesses such as Mark Water Pumps Limited (MWPL) operate in-house automotive testing facilities, offering the aftermarket industry an opportunity to independently prove component performance.

Pro-Align advocates solutions for complete tyre care in TPMS age

Product News, UK News

With all new cars now coming equipped with TPMS, uneven tyre wear as a result of under (or over) inflated tyres should theoretically become a thing of the past. That theory has yet to materialise in practice; the latest Department for Transport figures reveal that around 1,000 casualties are caused every year on the UK’s roads from tyre-related incidents. And perhaps the brave new world of tyre safety promised by required TPMS fitments may have been inspired by too much blue sky thinking anyway. With many drivers now relying on TPMS systems to advise them when to top up their tyres with air, it is possible that some are checking their tread depth even less frequently than before.
