Description
Overview
The Tuxedo TC-400M-B is a power sport tire changer built for motorcycle, ATV, and small-diameter wheels. It uses a swing-arm layout with four adjustable clamps and double-acting pneumatic cylinders, so a shop can mount and demount bike tires that a passenger-car changer struggles to hold.
The four self-centering clamps cover an outside rim clamping range of 6 to 24 inches, which spans most motorcycle and power sport rims. A side-mounted bead breaker frees stubborn beads, and electric table rotation keeps both hands on the tool. The package includes a water separator, lubricator, and air pressure regulator, so the air supply is conditioned before it reaches the machine.
