(Redditch, UK – 30th, May, 2018) – Newbow Aerospace, a leading design, manufacturer and supplier of ground support equipment (GSE) to the aviation industry, is excited to launch an innovative range of digital tire pressure checking gauges and digital strut service tools.

The innovative digital tire pressure checking gauges are calibrated to an accuracy of +/- 0.4 percent FS allowing optimum aircraft tire pressure settings to be achieved. Capable of measuring pressures in excess of 500 psi and offered with a wide choice of small 8V and large 12V adapters, the digital tire pressure gauge is compatible with all make and model aircraft as well as all OEM tires.

The innovative digital strut service tool is capable of exceeding pressures of 5000 psi at an accuracy of 0.4 percent FS, allowing all aircraft make and model strut and accumulators to be serviced with efficiency and accuracy. Operators and engineers can take advantage of a complete, ready to use unit equipped with hose and adapter set or simply take the modular digital pressure gauge head and retro fit existing in-service Newbow hoses and adapters.

Key features include:

  • Powered by 2 x 3V AAA batteries
  • Accuracy +/-0.4 percent FS
  • White Backlight with on/off capability
  • 4 Digit LCD display
  • Battery Life Indicator
  • Stainless Steel casing and connection
  • Functions: On/off, backlight on/off, Unit measurement, calibration
  • Measurements: PSI / BAR / Mpa / Pa / Kg/cm²

The digital pressure gauge head on both the tire pressure checking gauge and strut service tool is fully modular, allowing fitment to existing, in service hoses and adapters.

Marc Green, Sales Director for Newbow Aerospace said: “Newbow Aerospace has been supplying accurate tire pressure checking gauges and strut service tools into the aviation industry for more than 50 years. Many of our global customers still prefer analogue pressure gauges but in an era of digitalization, we decided that now was the right time to complement our wide range of analogue equipment by introducing a digital range.”
