Why This Tire Changer Fits Heavy-Duty Fleets

Wide Rim Capacity Range (14" to 42")

One tire machine for your entire fleet. The adjustable hydraulic chuck system covers light commercial through heavy-duty applications, so you can service passenger vehicles, light trucks, commercial trucks, buses, and agricultural equipment without multiple specialized tire machines.

High Torque Hydraulic System

5,265 Nm maximum torque from a 2.2 kW gearbox motor with integrated hydraulic pump. This exceeds typical industry standards for commercial tire changers, providing the force needed to break stubborn bead seals on aged or corroded wheels without manual prying tools.

Remote Pedestal Control System

24V low-voltage control pedestal lets operators manage all hydraulic functions from a safe distance during clamping and rotation. Emergency stop controls are integrated into the command station for immediate shutdown when needed.

Heavy-Duty Steel Construction

Q235 and Q245 structural steel with 1,140 lb frame weight. This heavy construction eliminates frame flex and vibration when handling large commercial tires, maintaining consistent chuck alignment and extending equipment lifespan in high-volume applications.
