Accurate Tire Pressure Gauge Recommendation

[Snoopy49]

Who makes the most accurate tire pressure gauge in the 20-50 psi range that doesn't cost a fortune?

I've got one for you, standby

This is the one I use. I have two of them. I'd be happy to send you one of them.

They aren't being sold anymore, but Amazon has equivalents if you don't want lightly used.

Not sure where your definition of "fortune" lies, Earl, but after fooling with gauges for too many years, I opted for a digital inflator that appears to be accurate to the tenth of a psi.

When I said fortune, I was talking about Nascar level air pressure gauges.

Pretty common at HPDE stuff. Love mine. Works great very accurate and simple to read.

What are you sorry about. I just meant that I didn't want to spend Nascar money ($150 plus) on a tire gauge, your information was in the right ball park.

Yeah, I've used a dial type Accu-gage for years. It's a model without a hose, just a rigid stem with a bleeder valve. Cross checked it against some higher end products, dealer TPG, seems extremely accurate.

DT: I've had a few good dial gauge pressure checkers through the years but I found eventually, they all stop working and I prefer the "popup stick" type much like a tread depth gauge.

Yeah, I think the Accu-Gage has some design improvements for longer life, like higher quality valves, better rubber seals, it's all brass - I've had mine for at least a decade.

It's funny - and I guess a little sad - that a product lasting longer than a couple of years is now the outlier ...
