KTR-001 Heavy Duty Premium Tyre Pressure Gauge

Received the product but was not working. Called the customer service and they tried to fix but was not able to. They replaced the product within the week and now have a working gauge. The gauge is sturdy and works very well. As advertised and looks like it will last for a long time. Very handy in the car. Would recommend the product and amazed at the excellent customer service.

It is having good quality and also give accurate readings.

Nice and useful product. Must have in every car as petrol pump guage is not calibrated.

Good, does the job. Do we have any additional attachment for easy connection?

Good product. Gives accurate reading. Very handy for car, two wheeler

Very accurate reading. Easy to use and good quality

I ordered this on 15 Jun 2023 because I wanted an analog pressure gauge that didn't require batteries or maintenance and I like looking at analog dials. There's something very tangible about analog gauges that feel like real instruments! This seemed like a good option. But after a year of usage, it started to leak air and not hold the pressures properly, despite cleaning it multiple times as suggested by the manufacturer. I've used this for about a year for my Nissan Magnite. It requires 36 PSI of pressure on all tires and that reading falls squarely in the middle of this gauge's readings. This ensures that the readings are accurate. (It is always good to have a pressure gauge (bourdon tube type) with a scale that has typical readings in the middle of the scale. Readings that are at the lower end and upper end of the scale do not guarantee accurate readings. This is true for all bourdon tube type instruments. Pros: 1. This seems to be built well. 2. The readings are very clear. The dial is amazing. It lets me measure readings that are accurate to within 1 PSI 3. This is ANSI 2% calibrated gauge so we can be a little sure that the readings are close enough. 4. The bleed button is very useful. 5. Rotating nozzle is extremely important (especially when the bleed button starts to leak) 6. The reset or bleed button springs the needle back to 0. It's amazing to look at. I'm a sucker for mechanical things and this is just so satisfying to see. Cons 1. After a year of usage, it developed the issue of not holding a reading. See the attached video on how the reading starts falling as soon as we remove it from the valve. This flaw seems to have developed near the bleed button mechanism due to dirt or contaminants entering it. There are multiple instructional videos and Karter's own disclaimer on how to clean the gauge to ensure that it hold the air properly. I had cleaned it multiple times, blew air through it but it still doesn't hold pressure properly. Although it doesn't hold a reading, it is still useful and accurate because the actual reading when holding the nozzle at the valve is the most accurate. But because the neck is so small, it becomes a little hard to keep holding the gauge at the valve while reading the values. This is all due to the improperly designed bleeder valve. Maybe Karter should redesign this. 2. Because I'm out of warranty, I can't even claim replacement for it. It had worked perfectly for about a year and suddenly it developed this flaw one fine morning. I would advise anyone buying this to not use the bleed button while you're taking readings. There's a possibility that some dust or debris from inside the tyre (rubber or dust particles) may enter the bleed button mechanism and you can develop the leak issue and your readings will no longer hold. Maybe Karter should have given a spare bleed button mechanism. I'm still going to continue using this gauge as a backup and as a verification gauge because the readings will still be accurate (even if the pressure hold feature doesn't work). The principle of bourdon tube type gauges is very simple and effective. Overall, I was satisfied for about a year and now, I'm sad that a part of its feature doesn't work.

Excellent product Very good after sales service
