Triumph NTC-950-1 and NTB-800 Features
Assist Arm for Difficult Tires
The NTC-950-1 comes equipped with an assist arm that makes working with run flat and low profile tires much easier. These tire types have stiffer sidewalls that can be challenging to mount and demount without proper tooling. The assist arm holds the tire bead in place during the mounting process, reducing the physical effort required and minimizing the risk of tire or wheel damage.
Powerful Bead Breaker System
Breaking stubborn beads requires serious force, and the NTC-950-1 delivers with 5,500 lb of bead breaker force. This gives you the power to handle seized or corroded beads that have been on wheels for years. The robust bead breaker design ensures consistent performance across passenger cars, light trucks, and SUVs.
Jet Blast Inflator System
The integrated Jet Blast inflator system helps seat difficult tire beads quickly and safely. By delivering a high volume blast of air around the bead, it creates the seal needed to begin inflation. This feature is especially useful for low profile tires where traditional inflation methods may struggle to seat the bead properly.
Wide Clamping Range
The NTC-950-1 handles wheels from 14 to 26 in using outside clamping and 16 to 28 in using inside clamping. Maximum wheel width is 15 in and maximum tire diameter reaches 43 in. This range covers the vast majority of passenger vehicles, light trucks, and SUVs that will come through your shop.
Automatic Data Entry on Balancer
The NTB-800 wheel balancer features automatic data entry that simplifies the balancing process. Instead of manually entering three parameters like traditional balancers, you only need to input one measurement and the machine calculates the other two automatically. This speeds up each balancing job and reduces the chance of operator error.
Wheel Brake for Precise Weight Placement
The NTB-800 includes a wheel brake that holds the tire and wheel assembly in place while you apply wheel weights. This eliminates the frustration of the wheel spinning away from your weight placement position. The brake allows for accurate, first attempt weight installation that saves time on every balancing job.
Fast Cycle Time
With a cycle time of just 6 to 9 seconds, the NTB-800 spins up, measures, and displays the balance readings quickly. Combined with the automatic data entry feature, this fast cycle time helps you move through high volume tire work efficiently. The balancer achieves accuracy within plus or minus 1 gram.
Dual Display Modes
The NTB-800 can display measurements in either standard or metric units, making it easy to work with wheel specifications from any manufacturer. This flexibility is helpful when referencing service manuals or working with imported vehicles that use metric measurements.

Your tire equipment ships via LTL common carrier freight on a 48 foot semi truck. Once your order ships, we will email you the carrier information and tracking number. Freight shipping typically takes 3 to 14 days depending on your location, so please be patient as this is slower than small package delivery.

Delivery Appointment Required
You are responsible for calling the freight company to schedule a delivery appointment. We cannot do this for you since we do not know your schedule. If you prefer, we can ship to the carrier's nearest freight terminal for you to pick up with a trailer or moving van.
