Video Transcript for Complete Breakdown of the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads 4-Pack for 1/2-Ton Trucks

Hello everybody, This is Jeff D, etrailer.com. Today we take a look at the Counteract four pack of three ounce bags of the tire balancing beads. How these counteract balancing beads are the economical way to balance your tire and wheel assemblies, for the lifetime of your tires. These beads are designed to install inside the tires. I want to zoom in and show you this bag here. When you receive this bag, it will be sealed at the top.

Now, what you want to do is just tear off the top, which I've already done, and then dump the bag out, we'll go over all the parts, that come with it. So, basically you can see it'll come with four, three ounce bags of the balancing beads, and then it'll also come with four, of the Vortex Valve Cores. And then it'll also come with four of the self-sealing valve caps. Now these beads themselves are made of a coated glass sphere that these balancing beads that will not cause damage to the inner liner of your tire. And they won't clump, regardless of excess moisture, and they are two PMS compatible.

These are environmentally friendly construction. They are reusable and recyclable beads. Now, how the tire balancing beads work Just wanted to show you, we're gonna pop up a little insert there. And basically what happens is, once your tire begins to roll, these bags, you put one in each tire, they'll break open, and the beads will get distributed around the interior of the tire. Thanks to centrifugal force.

And as that wheel continues to spin, the heavy spotting, your unbalanced tire will pull up and down on your vehicle suspension. And this will cause the beads to shift in the opposite direction of that pole. So, the beads will continue to migrate until there are enough of them on the opposite side of the heavy spot of the tire to balance out your tire. Now, these tire balancing beads, continuously and automatically will readjust the balance of your truck or off-road tires. Thus, reduce vibration and ensures even where to increase the life of your tire, even helps improve fuel economy.

Now, they are a very easy installation. As I mentioned, you just throw these bags, one in into each tire, when the tire is removed from your wheels, or you can even inject the beads into the valve stem. The beads will remain inside the tires, they don't come loose to contaminate the environment and that won't cause any damage to your wheels. One note I do want to mention, that if your tire has internal TPMS sensors, you will need to break down the tire to install these beads. The application again, is three ounce bags, for trailers and light duty trucks. Now, to order the correct amount of beads needed for your application, what you need to do, is get the size of the tire, from the sidewall of the trailer or type vehicle, and then match it to the tire sizes that are listed on the product page, for that size bag of beads. They do offer different size bags of beads anywhere some like, these are three ounce. They go all the way up to a 20 ounce bag, but basically we sell all those other size bags separately. But, if you go to the part number for that bag and you look at the product page, it'll list the tire sizes, that these would work on. Now, also in order to reduce the possibility of valve leaks, they recommend the use of these Counteract Valve Cores and these metal valve caps in place of the original valve core and cap. And these are included in every bag of the counteract beads. These parts are made in the USA, and this is for quantity of four bags of beads for four tires. But, that should do it for the review on the counteract four pack, of three ounce bags, of the tire balancing beads..
