Katool KT-T800 + KT-B760 – Tire Changer + Wheel Balancer (Combo)
Katool KT-T800 & KT-B760 Tire Changer and Balancer Combo for Sale
The Katool KT-T800 & KT-B760 tire machine and balancer combo pairs a 2.0 HP swing-arm tire changer with an automatic wheel balancer for passenger and light-truck service. This tire changer combo handles wheels up to 41 inches in diameter with 12-22 inch clamping range, while the KT-B760 delivers ±1 g accuracy in 7 seconds. Both units run on 120V single-phase power for straightforward installation in small to mid-size shops.
Key Features of This Tire Changer and Balancer Combo
This tire changing equipment delivers professional-grade performance in a tire machine and wheel balancer combo designed for small to mid-size shops.
Carburized Alloy Steel Jaws with Rim Protection
The KT-T800's clamping jaws feature alloy steel with 0.8-1.1 mm carburization depth and full quenching for extended service life. Each jaw includes a plastic rim protector cover, while the stainless steel mounting head features a protective sleeve to prevent marring on alloy wheels. The carburization process creates a hard outer surface while maintaining a tough inner core, reducing jaw replacement frequency compared to through-hardened designs.
Automatic Measurement Ruler for Faster Balancing
The KT-B760 includes an automatic measurement ruler that directly inputs wheel dimensions during setup, eliminating manual entry of critical A and D values. This system captures rim diameter, width, and offset measurements as you position the wheel, feeding data directly to the balancer's control board. This tire changing machine combo improves workflow efficiency by reducing setup time and eliminating the most common source of balancing errors.
120V Single-Phase Operation
Both the KT-T800 tire changer (2.0 HP motor) and KT-B760 wheel balancer (0.25 kW motor) are configured for 120V single-phase North American power. The 120V requirement allows installation using standard 15-20 amp circuits already present in most automotive bays, eliminating electrician fees, permit requirements, and downtime associated with major electrical work for this tire machine and balancer combo for sale.
High-Precision Balancing with Multiple Modes
The KT-B760 delivers ±1 g accuracy at 180 RPM with 7-second measuring cycles. The balancer supports dynamic, static, and multiple ALU modes for different alloy rim scenarios, with built-in fault diagnosis and self-calibration routines. The 7-second cycle time maintains throughput even with higher precision, while automatic fault diagnosis catches calibration drift before it affects service quality in this tire changer wheel balancer combo.
Closed-Body Design with Air Filtration
The KT-T800 features a closed cabinet body that protects internal pneumatic components from shop contamination. The integrated air system includes a high-quality lubricator-filter unit positioned between the shop air supply and the machine's pneumatic circuits, removing moisture and particulates. This best tire changer and balancer combo reduces maintenance frequency and unplanned downtime by extending pneumatic component service life.
Robust Balancer Construction
The KT-B760 is built with a 3 mm thick high-strength steel cabinet and 8 mm thick bottom and side plates supporting the sensor assembly. The main shaft is 36 mm in diameter with quenched threading, providing rigid support for wheels up to 65 kg (143 lb) during high-speed rotation. The reinforced sensor supports maintain precise component alignment even after years of service in this tire changer balancer combo.
