Brain Stuff tire additive applicator

Brain Stuff tire additive applicator

An electric motor runs at a constant speed rotating the tires placed on the first axis and contact the other two tires which will run in the opposite direction. An adjustment on the two cams allow you to set the pressure between the tires and choose the type of additive penetration. Works with 1/8th and 1/10th tires.
