Katool KT-T850 + KT-B750 – Tire Changer + Wheel Balancer (Combo)
Katool KT-T850 and KT-B750 Tire Changer and Wheel Balancer Combo for Commercial Shops
The Katool KT-T850 and KT-B750 tire changer and wheel balancer combo pairs a tilt arm wheel clamp tire changer with a computerized wheel balancer for professional automotive shops. This tire machine combo handles wheels up to 47 inches in diameter with a 2.0HP motor and delivers ±1 g balancing accuracy through automated measurement systems.
Key Features and Benefits of This Tire Changer and Wheel Balancer Combo
Maximum Wheel Capacity with Single-Phase Power
The KT-T850 tire changer offers a 47-inch wheel diameter and 28-inch inside clamping capacity on standard 110-120V single-phase power, delivering commercial-grade performance without special electrical upgrades. Its 2.0HP motor runs at 6.8 rpm for efficient, repeatable tire mounting in busy shops.
Precision Balancing with Speed
The KT-B750 wheel balancer delivers verified ±1 g balancing accuracy with 7-second measurement cycles using automatic measurement ruler technology. Operating at 180 rpm with a 36 mm hardened shaft and 8 mm sensor supports, it provides stable, vibration-free balancing for consistent results.
Heavy-Gauge Construction with Documented Specifications
Both machines feature specific steel thickness documentation including 3mm body construction, 8mm sensor supports, and 36mm hardened shaft diameter rather than general "heavy-duty" claims. The KT-T850 includes carburized alloy steel jaws with protective rim covers and a 200mm aluminum bead-breaker cylinder.
Comprehensive Pneumatic System Protection
The integrated air filtration and lubrication system extends pneumatic component life and maintains consistent performance under varying shop air quality conditions. The system requires 0.8-1.0 MPa (116-145 psi) operating pressure with built-in conditioning for reliable pneumatic operation.
Professional Automation Features
The automatic measurement ruler eliminates manual A and D value input while multiple balance modes, fault diagnosis, and self-calibration reduce operator training requirements. The system includes unit selection capability for oz/gram and mm/inch measurements with automatic calculation of weight placement positions.
Complete Combo Integration
This factory-matched tire changer and wheel balancer combo uses coordinated specifications and unified 12-month warranty coverage to eliminate compatibility concerns. Both machines share 110-120V single-phase power requirements and complementary capacities for seamless workflow integration at the tire bay.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum wheel capacity of the Katool KT-T850 tire changer?
The KT-T850 handles wheels up to 47 inches diameter with 15 inches maximum width. Inside clamping range is 16-28 inches, outside clamping range is 14-26 inches. This capacity covers passenger cars, light trucks, and performance vehicles with oversized wheels, making it suitable for diverse commercial tire service operations.
What components are included with the KT-T850 and KT-B750 combo package?
KT-T850 includes assist arms, bead blast seater, 200mm aluminum bead-breaker cylinder, carburized alloy steel jaws, stainless steel mounting head with rim protectors, and integrated air lubrication system. KT-B750 includes automatic measurement ruler, multiple balance modes with fault diagnosis, self-calibration system, and unit selection capability.
What are the power requirements for the Katool KT-T850 and KT-B750?
Both machines in this tire changer and balancer combo operate on 110-120V single-phase power. The KT-T850 uses a 2.0HP motor and the KT-B750 uses a 0.25 kW motor, so standard electrical service is sufficient with no special three-phase installation. This simplifies setup compared to many commercial tire service machines that require 220V three-phase power and higher electrical upgrade costs.
What is the balancing accuracy and speed of the KT-B750 wheel balancer?
The KT-B750 delivers ±1 gram balancing accuracy with 7-second measurement cycles at 180 rpm balancing speed. The automatic measurement ruler eliminates manual dimension input for faster operation. This precision meets professional shop requirements while the 7-second cycle time significantly reduces balancing time compared to typical 10-15 second cycles found in this price range.
What are the installation requirements for this tire service equipment?
Requires 110-120V single-phase electrical supply with appropriate circuit sizing for the 2.0HP motor on the KT-T850 and 0.25kW motor on the KT-B750. KT-T850 needs shop air at 0.8-1.0 MPa (116-145 psi). Level concrete floor recommended for proper balancer operation and vibration control. Forklift or loading dock required for delivery and setup due to the 340kg weight of the tire changer.
What vehicles and tire types are compatible with this equipment combo?
Suitable for passenger cars and light trucks with wheels up to 47 inches diameter and maximum weight of 65kg on the balancer. Handles performance wheels requiring precision balancing accuracy of ±1 gram, fleet maintenance operations, and high-volume commercial tire service applications. The rim center hole capacity is 135mm maximum, accommodating most standard passenger and light truck wheel configurations.
What warranty coverage is provided with the Katool KT-T850 and KT-B750 combo?
Both units include 12-month parts warranty coverage as standard. Extended warranty options available through certain dealers with up to 3 years structural coverage for enhanced protection. Warranty is non-transferable and requires original purchase verification. The factory warranty covers parts replacement while extended options provide additional structural component protection beyond the standard term.
How is this equipment shipped and what are the delivery requirements?
Freight shipping is available within the lower 48 states with free shipping to commercial addresses that have dock access. The customer is responsible for unloading from the delivery truck due to the 340 kg weight of the tire changer and wheel balancer combo, so a forklift or loading dock is required for safe handling. Liftgate service is available for an additional charge for locations without dock access, and residential delivery is available with surcharges.
