Recommended Tire Pressure Monitoring System For Single Axle Trailer
Question:
what tire pressure monitor system works best for a single axle boat trailer, sensors would be under water when launching boat.
asked by: Vernon C
Expert Reply:
A tire pressure monitoring system like the TireMinder Tire Pressure Monitoring System for Brass Valve Stems - 4 Transmitters - Signal Booster # TPMS-APP-4 is great for trailers, however it does not work with water. It will work great for your dry travel with tires up to 80 psi, but submerging in water will ruin the transmitters that screw onto the valve stems. The nice thing about having a system like this with a single axle trailer is you will have a couple extras transmitters for another application.
My recommendation is to either remove this system before backing into water or use a manual tire pressure gauge like # TMG-090-39 or a dial gauge like # WM8216 to monitor your tires manually.
