Are Flow Through Tire Pressure Sensors Better for Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems
Updated 06/03/2020 | Published 06/01/2020
Question:
I’m considering a TPMS for my camping trailer. Is one type of sensor more advantageous than another I.e. flow through versus end cap type? I’ve heard flow through are heavier and that can create problems with rubber valve stems.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Flow through tire pressure monitoring systems are the way to go as you can inflate the tires without having to remove the sensors. They do not add a significant amount of weight either. So for a tandem camper trailer like you have the part # TST-507-FT-4-C.
