Trailer Products - M.T.I.S.
Increases Tire Life, Fuel Economy and Safety
This innovative system connects all tires on the trailer to a controlled air supply to fill and maintain tires at the desired pressure setting, even while the vehicle is moving. As air pressure drops below the tire manufacturer's recommended level, MTIS automatically routes air through a control box and through the trailer axles to refill any underinflated tires. By maintaining proper pressure, MTIS helps extend tire life and allows for more even tread wear and maximized recap potential.
