Draper Tyre Pressure Gauge with Flexible Hose | Handheld Dual Reading Gauge | Car Tyre Pressure Gauge | 69924, Blue

I bought this for my as I check tyre pressures regularly in my role , it is well made the valve push end is machined brass which bodes well for the quality , the hose is 200mm long so you can access a tyre valve easily and read the pressure indicated by facing the gauge toward you in any situation or angle . Once the required pessure has been reached or if you overfill a tyre no problem leave the gauge "pushed on the tyre valve" position and press the small pressure release stud on the gauge body, this lets air out until the desired pressure is reached perfect !. The gauge itself takes the reading and if done correctly the needle stays at that reading when you remove it from the tyre valve so you can record it or whatever , simply press the small pressure relief stud to reset the gauge for the next use . The gauge is graduated and seems very accurate for all purposes , my only slight disappointment is the gauge is not as legible to read at a glance as I'd like , and the readings are given in bar , psi , with no colour distinction between the two in say font or some other way of differentiating the scale . Plus being a middle aged guy my eyes are not as young as they once were ! . However the scale is still perfectly legible and usable , it's just a minor point that some with old eyes may find an annoyance but not insurmountable .All in all I'd give this product a solid 9.5 out of 10... BUY IT ...it's worth the small cost .

Well made, easy to use, accurate, cheap. Wow. I have a cheapo Halfords electronic gauge, but I never fully trust it, it keeps turning itself off while moving from one wheel to the next, and invariably needs a new battery when I come to use it. It also occasionally gets "stuck" and needs the battery taking out to reset it. So I wanted a good old mechanical one, and on top of that, one that copes well with high pressures. The tyres on our motorhome need to be at 70-80 psi, depending on load.This is brilliant. Lovely well-engineered feel to the brass components, nice protective rubber case on the gauge, a decent length hose so that you can always hold the gauge at a readable angle no matter where the valve is, and a handy button to release air if you need to, without having to keep pulling the nozzle off the valve. The dial responds instantly unlike the horrible dampened motion you seem to get on so many foot pumps etc. which are slow to respond and seem to give a different reading every time, and this one always gives the exact same reading. Very pleased with it, for the money it is a real bargain.

This is a well made piece of equipment and looks like it will last. The gauge is easy to read and after taking the pressure reading the needle stays at the indicated pressure until you press the release valve. It has a swivel head to make it easier to fit on a variety of tyre valves. My only complaint would be that the part that fits over the valve could be deeper so that it's further over the valve body before opening the valve to read the pressure. As it is it's quite shallow and tends to cant over and release some pressure before you get it seating properly. Still happy with it though. We'll worth the money.

Classy looking gauge with the brass and the blue. I get a lot of comments whenever I use it. Very accurate and pretty easy to use. Just continue to hold it on until you get a good seal (normally doesn’t take long). Pressure release valve works well and is handy to reduce to perfect pressure. Draper are a descent brand, their kit typically doesn’t disappoint. I keep it in the supplied cardboard box when not in use. Took a while to pick this one looking at all the ones available, but glad I did. Worth the purchase.

Works well

Good quality and seems robust

Nice gauge, quite classic looking, accurate. The part that fits to the valve could be a bit deeper so it fits on better. Overall, very happy with it.

The reading is accurate and the face is easy to read, but it's a real battle to get the head onto the valve without dumping a load of air out of your tyre. You have to press it in perfectly parallel and central or it empties your tyre. Having the head on a tube is very useful for reaching awkward spots. Purely mechanical so no batteries to worry about.Overall, would not buy again
