Nitrogen-Filled Tires Last Longer TIRES/WHEELS Miscellaneous 30-1-34 A Sunrise, Fla. company called N2Revolution is making it possible for anyone to drive more efficiently by offering a technology that was formerly used only by race car drivers and the president on Air Force One.
Company president Robin Pearl says inflating tires with nitrogen instead of air boosts gas mileage and reduces tire wear.
N2Revolution's 98 percent nitrogen product hit the market in mid-September at service stations equipped with "nitroflators".
According to Pearl, the reason high purity compressed nitrogen is superior to compressed air (which is 78 percent nitrogen and 20 percent oxygen) is that it doesn't allow rubber to oxidize and it eliminates moisture inside the tire which also damages rubber.
"It also stabilizes tire pressure better than air. That means less wear, less heat build-up and less gas consumption, saving money in the long run," he says. "Tire costs are estimated to be the second highest operating cost after gasoline. When your tires are consistently inflated at proper pressure, you will benefit from extended tire life and increased tire mileage. You'll also get a smoother ride with better handling, braking and steering."
Since pricing is at the discretion of individual dealers, the cost to consumers varies greatly. In some cases, the service may even be offered as a free bonus when other services are provided.
At press time, N2Revolution had dealers in Ohio, New Jersey, North Dakota, Florida and Georgia, but the network was growing rapidly, with new dealers signing on every day.
"We expect to have dealers from coast to coast within the next three months," Pearl says. "We welcome all new dealer inquiries."
