Wegmann Automotive has launched its latest range of Alligator tyre inflators, the Gator Inflator Basic series, a range that aims to provide garages with reliable, precise, and efficient tools for daily operations. These inflators are built to meet the rigorous demands of workshop environments, combining durability with high performance.
Alligator has introduced a new programmable universal sensor, the sens.it RS+. According to the company, the RS+ features a new chip generation for faster programming time, higher compatibility and improved battery life. As a universal sensor, the RS+ “speaks the language of every car”, in the words of Alligator.
Prepared for the mandatory installation of TPMS on trucks? From July 2024, new regulations take effect, making the use of tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) mandatory for all trucks. Not only fleet operators, but also workshops and wholesalers need to prepare for this. This is because the demand for TPMS products will also increase noticeably in the spare parts market. Alligator has responded to this development by expanding its range of TPMS valves for trucks.
Bike tyre service can be a hassle. Alligator has been developing “user-friendly solutions designed to make changing valves and inflating bicycles a breeze” since 1920.
Alligator has launched its new Sens.it RS+ Sensor, for use in 99.98 per cent of all vehicle models. According to the company, the latest production is “a customizable, universally compatible and cloneable option that reduces service time and saves costs on storage and logistics.”
Wegmann automotive, the company behind the Hofmann Power Weight and Perfect Equipment wheel balancing weight and the Hofmann Power Solutions battery bushings brands, has acquired the valve business of Alligator Ventilfabrik. Under the terms of the agreement reached between the two firms, Wegmann automotive will take ownership of Alligator sales and distribution operations for passenger car and heavy-duty truck tyre valves as well as for TPMS sensors and tools in both Europe and North America.
Myers Tire Supply has added three new exclusive TPMS kits to its product offering. The kits include: the ATEQ VT56 industry-leading TPMS diagnostic tool with OBDII and two years of software updates; the Myers 360 TPMS activation and programming tool; and 12 of the customers’ choice of sensors from Schrader, Alligator or HUF.
