Precision brake testing for cars, vans, and light commercial vehicles<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

EquipSpecs supplies high-performance roller brake testers built specifically for light vehicles. These systems deliver accurate, repeatable results for workshops, inspection centres, and compliance testing facilities across New Zealand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As New Zealand\u2019s exclusive distributor for Ryme Worldwide<\/a>, EquipSpecs brings global engineering excellence to local testing stations. The FRL and FRL 5.5 pair Ryme\u2019s precision technology with EquipSpecs\u2019 installation and calibration expertise. Together, they ensure reliable performance, precise brake-force measurement, and full NZTA compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just like our truck brake tester range<\/a>, these light-vehicle systems maintain the same trusted quality. However, they are scaled for smaller platforms and compact workshop footprints, making them ideal for passenger cars, vans, and light commercial vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
