Centramatic Wheel Balancers

Centramatic wheel balancers install behind the wheel. Once installed, centrifugal force causes the shot and oil filled aluminum balancing ring to automatically balance the tire and wheel as you drive down the road.

Installing Centramatic wheel balancers on a front wheel

Wheel Balancer Function

The free moving hardened lead alloy shot is bathed in a propietary synthetic oil. This two part combination moves automatically to the side opposite of the heavy points in the wheel assembly. The automatic function of these balancers can even compensate for mud, snow, and ice build up with the ability to correct front wheels that are up to 16 ounces out of balance and rear wheels up to 26 ounces.

Wheel Balancer Installation

Installation is simple and can be done by anyone with the ability to change a tire. The front wheel balancers are installed between the wheel and brake drum. Simply remove the wheel assembly, install the balancer over the wheel studs, and reinstall the wheel. Rear balancers are installed between the duals, so you only need to remove the outside wheel to install them.

Centramatic Balanced Wheel Benefits

Centramatic has done the tests and spoken with the fleets, and the results show that Centramatic balancers will consistently increase tire life by 25% - 50%, solve vibration problems, automatically balance your wheel assemblies while you drive, help to prevent tire cupping, and cause tires to run 8% - 10% cooler. The heat reduction is attributed to dramatically reduced tire deflection along with the balancer acting as a heat shield between the brakes and wheel.
