ESCO 70130 Truck Wheel Dolly - Heavy Duty Lift
The ESCO 70130 is a heavy-duty truck wheel dolly engineered to safely lift and move tire-wheel assemblies without manual handling. With a 280 lb lifting capacity, tiltable roller pads for perfect stud alignment, and 3-inch caster wheels for effortless mobility, this dolly reduces back injuries while increasing shop productivity. Designed for 8-10 hole Budd-type wheels and compatible with truck tires from 19.5" to 24.5", the 70130 combines heavy-duty tubular construction with smooth rotation for fast, accurate tire-wheel assembly handling.
ESCO 70130 Features
Heavy-Duty 280 lb Lifting Capacity
The 70130 handles heavy truck tire-wheel assemblies with 280 lb (127 kg) lifting capacity, supporting the weight of truck tires and wheels without risk of failure. Heavy-duty tubular steel construction provides strength and durability for years of professional shop use. This capacity accommodates most standard truck tire-wheel combinations safely.
Tiltable Roller Pads for Perfect Alignment
The tiltable roller pad design enables technicians to rotate the tire left or right for perfect stud hole alignment. This feature eliminates guesswork during mounting and ensures quick, accurate installation on the hub. Smooth rollers reduce handling time and minimize potential damage to expensive truck wheels.
360-Degree Tire Rotation
The dolly enables effortless 360-degree rotation in either direction, allowing complete control during tire positioning. This smooth, intuitive movement makes it easy to align lug holes with wheel studs, reducing installation time and operator effort. Technicians can rotate the tire for inspection and perfect placement.
Heavy-Duty Tubular Construction
Built from heavy-duty tubular steel, the 70130 is engineered for durability and strength. The construction withstands high-volume shop use and demanding service conditions. The robust design ensures years of reliable performance without structural degradation or failure.
3-Inch Caster Wheels for Effortless Movement
The 3-inch caster wheels roll smoothly across shop floors, enabling single-operator control even with heavy tire-wheel assemblies on board. The wheels provide excellent maneuverability, allowing technicians to position the dolly precisely without physical strain. Easy movement reduces fatigue during busy service cycles.
Lightweight at 18 lbs for Easy Transport
Despite its heavy 280 lb lifting capacity, the 70130 weighs only 18 lbs (8 kg), making it lightweight and portable. One technician can easily move, position, and store the dolly without assistance. The light weight does not compromise structural strength - the heavy-duty tubular construction ensures full rated capacity.

ESCO 70130 FAQ
What is the weight capacity of the ESCO 70130?
The 70130 has a lifting capacity of 280 lbs (127 kg), designed specifically for truck tire-wheel assemblies. This capacity is sufficient for standard truck tires ranging from 19.5" to 24.5". Never exceed the rated capacity as this will compromise safety and damage the dolly. Always verify your tire-wheel assembly weight before use.
What tire sizes does the 70130 accommodate?
The 70130 is designed for truck tires ranging from 19.5" to 24.5" (495 mm to 622 mm). This size range covers most standard commercial truck tires. The dolly is specifically engineered for truck tire-wheel assemblies and is not suitable for automotive or small tires.
Is the 70130 suitable for Budd-type wheels?
Yes. The 70130 is specifically designed for 8-10 hole Budd-type truck wheels, which are the industry standard on commercial trucks. The tiltable roller pad design allows for perfect alignment of large Budd wheel lug holes. This makes the 70130 ideal for trucks using this wheel style.
How does the tiltable roller pad system work?
The tiltable roller pad design allows technicians to rotate the tire left or right to align the lug holes with the wheel studs. The smooth roller surfaces enable effortless positioning and 360-degree rotation in either direction. This feature ensures quick, accurate installation without risk of cross-threading or improper seating.
How much does the dolly weigh?
The 70130 weighs only 18 lbs (8 kg), making it lightweight and portable. Despite this light weight, the heavy-duty tubular steel construction provides full 280 lb lifting capacity. One technician can easily move and position the dolly without assistance, and it's easy to store in tight spaces.
What are the caster wheels made of?
The 70130 features 3-inch caster wheels designed for smooth rolling across shop floors. The wheels enable single-operator control and effortless dolly movement, even when loaded with heavy tire-wheel assemblies. The wheels are designed for durability and smooth operation on concrete and asphalt surfaces.
Can the dolly be used for vehicle storage?
No. The 70130 is designed for temporary tire-wheel support and positioning during service work, not for long-term vehicle storage. For vehicles requiring extended storage, use permanent storage equipment. Never leave tires unattended on the dolly for extended periods.
What shop floor surfaces work best with the 70130?
The 70130 rolls smoothly across concrete and asphalt shop floors. The 3-inch caster wheels provide excellent mobility and control on level, flat surfaces. Avoid uneven or sloped floors that could cause the dolly to roll unexpectedly or become unstable during tire mounting work.
How does the 70130 reduce technician back injuries?
By eliminating the need to manually lift and carry heavy truck tire-wheel assemblies, the 70130 significantly reduces physical strain on technicians' backs. The dolly supports the weight while smooth rollers and tiltable pads allow easy positioning. This reduces repetitive stress injuries and improves safety and comfort.
Is professional installation required?
No. The 70130 comes fully assembled and ready for immediate use. Simply unpack it, verify all components are included, and place on a level shop floor. No tools or additional assembly are required. The dolly is designed for quick deployment in any service environment.
How do I maintain the 70130?
The 70130 is maintenance-free under normal service conditions. Keep the roller pads and caster wheels clean and free from debris that could interfere with smooth operation. Periodically inspect the wheels and frame for damage. Store in a dry location to prevent rust. No lubrication or special maintenance is required.
What is the warranty coverage?
The 70130 includes a 1-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and material failures under normal use. The warranty covers frame welds, caster wheel mechanisms, and roller pads. Keep your receipt and proof of purchase for warranty claims. Damage from misuse or overload is not covered.
