Frequently Asked Questions
How does this compare to wire brushes and other wheel cleaners?
Unlike manual wire brushes that only clean one surface at a time, this tool simultaneously cleans both the wheel stud and hub surface. It's faster, more thorough, and eliminates the risk of incomplete cleaning that can lead to torque issues.
What makes this better than other hub cleaning tools?
The ESCO 50172 features a unique dual-cleaning design with stainless steel components that last significantly longer than competitor products. It can clean up to 150 hub/stud combinations compared to just 3-4 for typical alternatives.
Will this wheel cleaner work with my air impact gun?
Yes, this tool is designed to work with any standard 1/2" air or electric impact wrench. It operates at normal impact speeds and doesn't require special settings or modifications to your existing equipment.
Can I use this on aluminum wheels and brake dust removal?
Absolutely. The stainless steel cleaning system is safe for both steel and aluminum wheels, effectively removing brake dust, rust, and corrosion without damaging the metal surfaces or wheel studs.
