Joes Racing 32307 (0-60) PSI Tire Pressure Gauge

To say I'm pretty picky about my tools is an understatement, so I don't give this tire pressure gauge 5 stars lightly.Recently, the little digital tire pressure gauge, that I had been using around the garage, bit the dust. So, I started searching on-line for a replacement, but didn't have much luck. Originally, I was hoping to find a digital pressure gauge that was accurate to .1 PSI, but I quickly realized I would have to spend north of $100.Additionally, I needed a tire pressure gauge that would work not only for cars, but also for my motorcycle (which has very limited room around the valve stem due to the large front brake rotors). Trying to maintain a good seal on the valve stem of the bike - especially while pushing a lot of buttons - is a real hassle.So, after not having much luck locating a reasonably priced digital gauge (which would also work on the motorcycle), I ended up searching for mechanical gauges. The Joe's Racing gauge had very good ratings on amazon and so I figured I'd take a chance on it - I'm glad I did.Here are the highlights:1. The construction of the gauge is very nice. It has a nice rubber sleeve around the gauge, which gives it a nice look and feel, as well as very good protection when you set it down on the garage floor, etc. The gauge is large and the distance between the divisions is large enough so that you can estimate down to 1/4 of a PSI without much difficulty.2. The hose is nice, although it's not quite the quality of like commercial air compressor hose or anything. It's more like large automotive fuel hose. On the gauge end, the hose is tightly attached, but you can still twist the gauge a little bit (which is nice, especially if you need to turn the gauge relative to the natural twist in the hose).3. On the fitting end of the hose (where the air chuck is), the fitting spins, which is handy. The gauge comes with two fittings. The brass threads at the end of the hose are very good quality. The smaller air chuck is cast, but it's still nice quality also. Note: removing the fitting that comes attached to the hose (to switch to the other chuck) is a little difficult, since the threads are sealed with a liquid type compound that has dried.4. In my case, I removed the factory fittings that came with the gauge and installed my own double head wand type air chuck - this extends the reach slightly and also gives you much better control on the valve stems of cars, as well as easy reach for checking motorcycle tire pressures. I used teflon tape to seal the threads and had no problem.5. Using the gauge is really nice. You simply inflate the tire a bit beyond where you want, then hold the gauge on the valve stem; the gauge has a button up near the dial, which allows you to quickly bleed air off (while still holding the air chuck on the valve stem). 3 or 4 quick presses will drop the PSI by a pound or more. As mentioned (due to the distance between the marks on the gauge), it's easy to set the pressure dead on or to the nearest .25 PSI or so. When you remove the gauge from the valve stem, it goes back to zero.6. Construction is very good from start to finish. Even if I had paid twice the $23.99 price, I still think I would have been pretty happy with the results.7. I recently tested this gauge against a digital tire pressure gauge that my friend had and the gauge was right on the money as far as its pressure readings. As mentioned in the instructions that come with the gauge, the gauge is very accurate and should not be dropped, nor run over the 60 PSI max.This is a very good quality gauge and it functions really well and is very easy to use. Taking tire pressure readings is very quick and easy now. The bleed off valve is really nice also and allows you to quickly reduce down the pressure to the desired setting.This is a top quality little gauge for the money. After receiving this gauge, I seriously doubt that I'll ever go back to using a digital gauge again. Definitely recommended to anyone looking for a very nice quality tire pressure gauge.

I like this product a lot. It is accurate and easy to use. It has a bleeder valve so that if you have too much air your can use the valve to adjust the air to your desired pressure. Easy to read dial. The dial turns on the hose to make it easy to read while in use. The other end is adjustable as well that connects to your tire stem. Made from brass so should last a long time. My only neg is that there is glass on the gauge which needs to be protected while you are handling the product. So far, no issues but if you were to drop the gauage from just a couple of feet it might break. OR if you are handling the gauge and the brass slaps against the gauge you might break the glass. The manufacturer should make a plastic protector for the face of the gauge but if handled properly, you should be ok. No issues so far.

This is easily the best tire gauge I've ever used. The title says it all - it provides an instant readout, it's spot-on consistent between readings, there is no battery to fail, and it has a nice big, easy-to-read dial. Additionally, the long flexible hose (of good rubber, not stiff vinyl) and good-quality valve chuck make it easy to seat the gauge on the valve, regardless of the angle of the valve, while still allowing you to hold the dial so it's easily readable. As soon as the chuck is seated on the valve, the needle springs instantly to the pressure readout with reassuring confidence, and then doesn't flicker a bit. If you want to release some pressure, you can push the button by the dial, then release the button and re-check the pressure. No need to remove the chuck from the valve. Both the chuck and the dial can spin freely with respect to the hose, so twisting this around to get a good reading while taking pressure at an odd angle is no problem.If you're concerned about taking care of your car as consistently as possible, or if you want to get the best possible gas mileage by keeping your tires filled to a specific level, I would suggest that this gauge is definitely worth the price.For comparison, I've owned several of the telescoping-stick style gauges, and three different digital gauges. NONE of those are very easy to read. The digital ones are either hard to see in sunlight (if digits light up) or hard to see WITHOUT sunlight (if digits don't light up). On my digital gauges, readouts are not quite consistent - sometimes subsequent readings will vary a bit. Granted, this variability is not enough to cause an unsafe condition (i.e. if your tire is at 33lb instead of 34lb, it's not exactly dangerous), but I never really know which is right. Also, I never know how long the battery is going to last - if the gauge doesn't work, does that mean I forgot to hit a button, or that it didn't seat right on the valve, or that the battery is dead? The digital style gauges I've used simply don't inspire confidence. The stick style gauges are at least reliable, generally consistent, and don't require batteries, but I find most of them are not easy to read. Either the text is really tiny or there are so many tick marks between the numerals that it takes a while to count them up (or down).My only "complaint" about this item is the size - between the long hose and the big, rubber-armored dial, this thing is rather bulky. You're definitely not going to slip it in your pocket and forget about it, like you can with some other gauges. I found that I need to store it in the center console of my car, rather than the door pocket. However, the hose, the display size, and the solid construction are all reasons that I LIKE this gauge, so I can't ding a star for these things. So it's really not a complaint; just a compromise or an observation that potential buyers should take into account.

I used my new tire pressure gauge for the first time (this afternoon)...and wow, it's wonderful! It gets a reading in only one try on a tire (I didn't have to reposition it multiple times to get a full reading). I tried it on the tires on my 2008 Toyota Yaris, and I HIGHLY recommend this tire pressure gauge.

Muy buena calidad, fácil de utilizar, robusto en su fabricación

Liked its sturdiness, the clear and visible readings, the accurate measurement, its appropriate for car tyre pressure (0 - 60 Psi) and the air pressure release button.

This is a great product and a must have!

This thing is solid. I can't tell if it's accurate but I will take the word of everyone else on here and it came with a hand written accuracy test so I figure it should be good. I've owned other tire pressure tools and so far, this one has the most convenient head, but also being the most expensive. When I put this on the valve, there is ZERO leak and I don't have to waste 2-3 PSI fiddling around to get an airtight reading. The pressure release button is really convenient. I just fill the tire up a bit over specs and release air until I hit the mark, it's perfect. Wish there was some rugged carry case but I guess that would have increased the already high price.

El producto es de uso rudo y muy práctico a la hora de ocupar
