STUDY * Canada - Nitrogen inflation improves tread life, fuel economy
Recent research conducted and funded by nitrogen tire inflation proponent and equipment supplier, Vancouver-based DREXAN, showed improvement in both tire tread life and vehicle fuel economy in a long-haul trucking fleetVancouver,BC,Canada -Todays' Trucking -9 July 2007: -- Drexan's president, Konrad Mech researched and authored the study, and presented the results at the 23rd annual Clemson University Tire Industry Conference in South Carolina in March 2007... Nitrogen filled tires maintain proper inflation pressure for longer periods... When used for tire inflation, nitrogen is said to all but eliminate pressure loss because the gas won't penetrate the tire casing the way ordinary air will. As a result, tires maintain proper inflation pressure for longer periods... Harris Transport of Winnipeg paid $8,500 to convert 65 percent of its fleet to Nitrogen...
