Installing Liquid Ballast in Tires

GEMPLER'S carries three different adapters for installing liquid ballast in tires: the Air/Liquid Adapter Kit (item no. 7K), the Quick Fill Tractor Tire Attachment (item no. AQF1), and the Hydro Inflation Core Ejection Tool (item no. S1029).

Three different adapters for installing liquid ballast

	1. The Air/Liquid Adapter Kit (item no. 7K), permits fast filling of tires with fluid for ballast. Button valve on side releases air displaced by fluid. Connects 3/4" standard garden hose to air/liquid tractor stem "TR 218A/220A" and comes with 2 extra bushings to accomodate "TR 13" and "TR 15" stems.

	2. The Quick Fill Tractor Tire Attachment (item no. AQF1) is an all-brass, no-rust unit used to fill tractor tires with water or calcium/water ballast. Design lets air escape automatically so you don't have to stop and vent while filling. Connects standard 3/4" hose to air/liquid tractor stem "TR 218A/220A" only.
