Ken-Tool Offers Universal Master TPMS Sensor Hardware


(Product News, 08 May 2008 )

Ken-Tool has introduced its Universal Master TPMS Sensor Hardware and Tool Service Set for Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors, (Item #30000). The tool set is an all-inclusive kit that includes hardware and application-specific tools for servicing valve stem TPMS sensors. The tool set offers tire service technicians all-inclusive kit for servicing valve stem Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors. Along with 152-piece assortment of 15 hardware kits that handle 90% of all TPMS-equipped vehicles in U.S., features include specialized hand tools needed to service and replace hardware on TPMS sensors. The TPMS Sentry sensor service tool, also included, ensures sensor is held securely during tire changing process.



The TPMS sensor hardware and servicing is becoming a service and revenue opportunity. Many new car, tire dealer and automotive service shops are presently charging between $5 and $10 per tire for the installation of a new hardware kit. This means Ken-Tool's entire package can represent add-on revenues of more than $1,500 per 152-pc set. Individual replacement kits and tools also are readily available from Ken-Tool.
