Digital Tensiometer Price Drop

this entry has 0 Comments/ in Wheel Fanatyk Tools / by Ric Hjertberg
January 8, 2019

We are changing indicators and dropping the price of our digital tensiometers. No reduction in accuracy! This change is an opportunity but necessary as the previous indicator was discontinued, replaced with one unsuitable to our tool.

The answer was to go with a lighter more compact indicator without a rotating bezel. Now (Jan 2019) our digital tool with EVA case is $248 (from $310) and with Nanuk case, $278 (from $340).

Rugged, compact, handsome.

The battery is still a longlasting 2032. For tensiometer nerds, here are 2 big advantages besides price.

  • The “zero” button gives an instantaneous response with a very light touch, and
  • The display offers two decimal places (0.o1mm) which eliminates the shaky, constantly changing third place that’s of no value in tension measurement.

For data output, besides manually transferring readings, a dedicated cable with foot pedal is available. The new system is entirely compatible the spokeservice.ca tension utility.

Meanwhile, please enjoy the savings and do your level best to be a true Tension Detective!
