US Made Tire Pressure Gauge?

[Art From De Leon]

Any such thing anymore, either digital or analog?

I have a digital Blue Point (EEPV501AR) that is probably close to 10 years old that was made by Hickok-Waekon, and am going to see if it can be re-calibrated, as I have had them do it in the past, but assuming that it no longer can be, I want to replace it with another accurate, US made gauge.

 

[wreckercologist]

Kinda pricy, but I've looked at it on the truck. It's a nice piece.

Milton made some. https://www.miltonindustries.com/uploads/Pages_18-20.pdf

 

[Torq'er]

I have a Moroso that's made in USA

Accu Gage used to be fully USA, but i think the hoses are outsourced, but hard parts are still made and assembled here

USA Miltons:
S-902
S-516
S-506
Pretty sure all but one or two of the lowest priced Miltons are USA


Tanner
http://mittlerbros.com/tire-gauges.php
Heard a lot of good things about the Tanners

Unless it's changed recently, these are/were:
Longacre
Intercomp

 

[JSGAuto]

Just got my new intercomp, it is made in usa.

 

[jashgtp]

I have the Moroso 89560 Tire Pressure Gauge...love it nice large gauge and us made

 

[SLOCOBRAR]

i buy marsh liq. filled gauges, 30# 60# whatever and put a female quik cplr. on those to match the male quik cplr. on my air chucks

 

[ImportTuner]

Check out Longacre .. great gauges, crappy customer service.

 

[brian90505]

I had a Moroso. The needle fell off. Got aa Blue Point now (http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item...&group_ID=1665&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog).
Looks about the same as others, no better, no worse.

I haven't found "the one" yet. Still looking. I like the Longacre, but I hate crappy customer service. I use it on motorcycles so I'm looking for one with a 90* chuck. Prefer analog. Digitals..eh.

 

[MBeaty]

Tanner makes a range of analog USA made pressure gauges. I have never used them, but they look to be pretty nice.

[Art From De Leon]

Thanks for the suggestions, the only downside to what I see is that the pressure range on most of them seem to stop at 60 psi. The Milton S-903 goes up to 160 psi, but I really would like to find one with a range of 0-100 psi.

I do not want an inflator type, as I just want one to carry in the door pocket of my pickup. I have a Milton brass inflator type that I use for both liquid and non-liquid filled tires on my stuff.

I will see what Waukon-Hickok says about whether they still re-calibrate their gauges. The last time I had it done, I was upset because they never included any paperwork showing the 'before and after' readings, so, their re-calibration 'services' may be nothing more than visually inspecting it, and sending it home after receiving payment.

Well, I wrote too soon, I bought a Moroso 0-100 psi gauge from Amazon.

Thanks to all who replied.

60 psi may be a little high for motorcycles but this looks like a good one, accu gage is made/assembled in the usa

Intercomp.

 

[american lockpicker]

I have one. No idea who makes it.

 

[bw77]

I have the Moroso 89560 Tire Pressure Gauge...love it nice large gauge and us made

According to a recent review on Amazon, the 89560 in now made in Brazil.

 

[t100]

Intercomp digital gauges are made in USA. really expensive.

 

[madamd]

i am debating tanner vs intercomp analog gauges... anybody got an opinion of these 2 comparisons?

 

[sweetk30]

sears tire sales section. 11.99 digital. 5-150 psi .5psi readout split.

and auto on and off. i have used them for years in the shop everyday. get just about a year of shop use out of one.


and with todays tire pressure monitors you need one. the tpms system trips if there is more than 3psi +/- of all 4 tires.

This inexpensive CH aluminum body inflator is assembled in the USA from mixed components: ($12 at Amazon)

EDIT: It appears this has moved to all-foreign manufacturing on the latest one I've received, my apologies. If you see it in a store, COO may vary.

This ebay seller is $8.50 less.

I have been using this style gauge on my motorcycles for many, many years.

And here's the same brand without the hose. I use the style without the hose for 90 degree angled air fitting:

I found your thread when searching for a replacement for my 20 year old Meiser.
I ended up sending the Meiser back to the company for their lifetime guarantee repair
and I became a distributor of their new "M"-series 100% Made in USA gauges.

To bring up current listings:
eBay search: Tire Air Gauge 100% USA Meiser

Thank you, and very best regards to you.

p.s. - I found your forum enlightening when trying to fix my Ajax floor jack.

 

[volaredon]

check out the Milton brand.

Beat me to it My milton has performed excellent and is just as accurate as those blue point and astro pneumatic digital ones.

Your link doesn't work. I'm guessing its the TGIFS1. If it is, I can tell you that I didn't like it. If you are not looking at the sight glass perfectly straight on, the reading will be a few pounds off. A few pounds is enough for me to decide I don't like it. I would prefer digital.

 

[hwydave]

Accu-Gage is not made in USA but from you know where. I bought the Accu-Gage H60X from Amazon under the impression that it is made in good old USA, but was surprised when received. Went to the GH Meiser website and no where in the site state that the Accu-gage is made in USA. Very disappointed, feel like Accu-gage is trading its "Made in USA" name from the past. Well, live and learn.

 

[Ruger_556]

I made my own... I have a gauge set (0-60 and 50-200 psi) with quick couplers for fuel pressure etc... so I made a whip hose with a clip on connect for checking tires.

 

[Jim C.]

Milton.... And they're made in the USA too.

[Nch209]

I like my longacre

 

[Jim Sperry]

I bought the Accu-Gage H60X from Amazon

I sell the MH60X Straight Tire Air Pressure Gauge • NO GUARD • 100% Made In USA G.H. Meiser on eBay for $34 delivered. Also the MH60XA 45˚ angled and the MRA60X 90˚ angled units. Evidently, I'm the sole distributor of Meiser's USA-production gauge.

Check with your Snap On dealer make sure that your Blue Point tire gauge doesn't come with a life time warranty mine did. I had mine for 20 yrs & still got warranty.

Meiser will be bring back an Assembled in USA gauge which will be very similar to the M-series EXCEPT it will have a Swiss movement and a few parts made in Poland.

It will be as close to the 100% M-Series USA gauge as possible without using Asian parts.

Here is the spec sheet.

I'll begin stocking these in a couple of months. Same pricing as before, averaging $35 delivered. I may sell the straight or 45˚ chuck / no hose model - two for $60 delivered - with no retail packaging, because I'll be able to fit two into a Flat Rate Priority Mail Small Box. Pictured is a similar gauge I reference with an optional rubber gauge guard installed (this is a previous generation M-Series)

Let us know, I haven't bought the Tanner yet. I'll buy a couple US Assembled GH Meisers ones from you. Thanks and keep us posted.

Hi Jim,

Would you post to UK? Thanks

 

[bdelmar2]

I have a Milton also, not sure model number, liquid filled gauge, hose, double headed, goes high enough to do pickup tires, or even semi tires if need be.

Pretty much the same gauge that has been in shops for longer than I've been alive probably.
