Tyre air gauge

[pradokakadudavid Member Find all posts View Profile Close pradokakadudavid]

Can anyone recommend a good quality tyre air pump gauge. I have an ARB one however the gauge drops to zero when pumping so you have no idea what the tyre pressure is until you release the handle. Is there a gauge that will lock on when pumping and show the actual tyre pressure when pumping?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

There's no such thing because you need a higher pressure to pump up a tyre. So if there was a "realtime" gauge it would be the incorrect reading.

The automatic tyre inflators at petrol stations stops pumping to take a pressure reading. Then continues until the desired pressure is reached.

I know my bushmans pump is about 10psi over when pumping so I just take 10 off the reading.
