PNEUMATIC SPECIALITY TOOLS

Pneumatic Speciality Tools are also known as Speciality Air Tools, in which it consists of tools based on its working functionality and working applications, both in Automotive and Industrial sectors. Some of the pneumatic specialty tools are Oil Evacuations system, Cooling System pressure tester, Radiator check and Fill system, Vacuum Brake Bleeder.

In this part, we are going to see about Vacuum Brake Bleeder and Radiator Check and Fill system. Both has the very simple system and operations, and it is very easy and handy to operate, and they can be mostly used in the Automotive sectors.

VACUUM BRAKE BLEEDER

The Brake System is the one of the most important and critical part in all the types of vehicles, as the system has the major responsibility of the people safety on roads. So, the maintenance part for the brake system should be done as per the due date based on that process. This is where the Speciality Air Tools plays a major role in braking system maintenance. In this, one critical maintenance task in which everyone miss is Brake bleeding process. This process involves in removing the air bubbles and contaminants from the brake fluid, in which it helps to stop the car, whenever it needs to be. This process leads to the optimal braking performance.

Brake Bleeding is the process of removing the trapped air bubbles and the other contaminants from the braking system of the vehicle. The trapped air bubbles are created during any service or fluid replacement process, and it can accommodate over time, because the brake fluid absorbs moisture and wears soon. Hydraulic pressure and the brake function are maintained by brake bleeding process with the help of Vacuum Brake Bleeder Kit.

BENEFITS OF BRAKE BLEEDING

  • When the fluid replacement is done, air bubbles and other contaminants are created and stay in the system, which can compress the pressure and reduces the brake efficiency. So, brake bleeding process eliminates these air bubbles, in which it increases the brake efficiency.
  • The Brake fluids, which was contaminated over time will be in dirt, moisture and other wastes, is also able to reduces the braking efficiency, these contaminated fluids can compromise the braking system performance.
  • While replacing some of the braking system components such as wheel cylinders, calipers and master cylinders, brake fluid must be flushed out, as the contaminants of the old parts are still be available inside the system. So, after the replacements of the parts, ensure the new replaced components are filled with the pure brake fluid.

SYMPTOMS FOR BRAKE BLEEDING

There are some symptoms of indications occurs, whenever there is brake bleeding process required, at that time, ensure the process is done immediately, for the safer braking in roads.

  • Whenever there are air bubbles inside the brake fluid, brake pedals will be spongier and soft, while applying brakes. So, brake bleeding process eliminates the air bubbles and it leads to the braking process done perfectly.
  • If our brakes seem to be performing inconsistently or feeling draggyat sometimes, this could be an indication that the brake fluid gets contaminated because of the air bubbles and other fluids, so, the bleeding process to be done.
  • When you notice the vehicle’s braking efficiency is poor such as longer stopping times and distances or reduced stopping power, brake bleeding process helps to restore the braking efficiency to be higher.

RADIATOR CHECK AND FILL SYSTEM

Yet another Speciality Air Tools that creates an impact in automotive service industry is Radiator Check and Fill System. It can also be termed as Cooling system refilling gun, in which it is used for removing and replacing the coolant system in the radiator. It is to be noted that the radiator is also the most important part of the vehicle, where more heat generates. So, it is made cool with the help of the coolants, and changing the coolants in frequent intervals of time is also an important process for avoiding the old coolants making damage to the system.

BENEFITS OF REPLACING THE COOLANT

Replacing the coolant provides many benefits to the coolant system of the vehicle, including the rust prevention to the overall cooling efficiency. The cooling system is an important part of the vehicle just like any other part. This also prevents overheating of the system, prevents the damage in the engine block. Some of the benefits are

  • Replacing the coolant helps to remove the rust formed inside the system and the scale deposits from the reservoir, because any type of clogs presented will lead overheating and damage to the entire system.
  • The additives in the new coolant also helps in preventing the rust from happening, which allows the cooling system to operate more efficiently
  • When the old coolants are presented in over time, it loses its protection abilities and it leads to the contaminants in the cooling system. Getting the replacement of coolants will eliminate all these particles from the system.
  • When the replacement of the coolant is done, it will inspect inside the system, whether nay leakages are there, and check for the other potential problems.
  • When the coolant is replaced every 30000 miles or based on the manufacturer’s manual, water pump of the car will last longer than expected, and it also lubricates the water pump

COOLANT CHANGING INTERVAL OF TIME

The universally accepted time of coolant changing for your coolant system will be for every 30000 miles or for every 3-5 years. Also, every make and model of the car will be different, and it will also be variable on the maintenance schedule timings. It will be better to check the user manual for differentiating the coolant system maintenance schedule, based on the different brands of the cars.

CONCLUSION

Our ATS-ELGI has a pneumatic specialty tools specifically for Brake bleeding and Coolant system refilling process named Vacuum Brake Bleeder and Coolant System Refilling gun.
