Ballast filling tool

Joe Dowling · Dec 2, 2012

Where can one obtain the tool that threads onto the stem to let air out when filling a tire with liquid ballast?

Gemplers and Napa both carry them. Bill

Permits fast filling of tires with fluid for ballast. Button valve on side releases air displaced by fluid. Hose connection fits 3/4" standard garden hose. Comes with 2 extra bushings for small stems.

Any good auto parts tore will have them or be able to get them as well as a tire shop that does tractor tires and a tractor dealer. If you need instructions on how to fill tires with fluid send me an e-mail and I'll send you a page from an owners manual I have that will explain filling tires

If your filling a large tractor tire you want this one It will let the air out as the fluid goes in $14.65 but well worth it because it will cut your filling time way down. It's brass and won't corrode You don't have to push any buttons to vent the air. Won't work on garden tractor tires because the valve stem is smaller.
quick fill from Gemplers

you dont want this one unless its aGarden tractor

you care to explain why i dont need to be using this type adaptor?

I have both types, the $14 one from Gemplers will allow you to fill the tire without stopping to let air out that builds up in the tire as it fills with liquid . I use the $8 one on Garden tractor tires because they have the smaller car type valve stem and the $14 one only fits large valve stems like on big farm tractors.
Even when filling small garden tractor tires with the $8 one you have to stop and bleed off air buildup in the tire.
