The results? Like its predecessor, EQUAL FLEXX dampens vibration by adapting to the wheel and brake assembly, and its Dual Force active balancing compounds reduce total tire vibration. Rigorously Tested, Scientifically Refined, Fleet Validated IMI drew upon our unprecedented expertise over the past 25 years with EQUAL in the development of EQUAL FLEXX. We partnered with the foremost experts in vibration analysis and tire testing. Final validations were performed over the road, having hundreds of thousands of recent miles of truck data to draw upon. Tests have shown up to 15% better performance. Using an onboard wireless vibration sensing system, the controlled testing process gave engineers a first- hand look at what happens inside a tire in real time, producing empirical data that led to the exact compounds in EQUAL FLEXX. With 2X more vibration absorption power, EQUAL FLEXX is the new industry benchmark in wheel-end balancing, delivering more even tire wear, lower rolling resistance and the smoothest ride. SAND GLASS EQUAL EQUAL FLEXX THE SOFTNESS SCALE EQUAL FLEXX will never damage the tire casing, wheel or TPMS units. It does not void tire manufacturer warranties. As the softest internal balancing compound available, EQUAL FLEXX maximizes vibration dampening for the life of a tire. WHY DOES VIBRATION MATTER? Simply put, vibration is wasted energy, and wasted energy increases rolling resistance. EQUAL FLEXX absorbs this energy and the accompanying vibrations within the tire, reducing tire wear, lowering fuel cost by lessening rolling resistance, and delivering a smoother ride. Energy absorption happens everywhere on the tire’s circumference where vibration occurs, not just at the footprint. In turn, vibrations are decreased through the complete tire and wheel assembly. * Patent Pending NEW!
