The press arm holds the bead down through the mount and demount, which makes stiff low-profile and run-flat tires manageable for a single technician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe machine reaches wheels up to 47 inches in diameter and rim widths to 15 inches. Four pneumatic clamps on double-acting cylinders hold the rim, and a non-contact head keeps the machine off the rim surface to prevent scratching. Bead-seating inflation jets in the clamping jaws speed up safe inflation. A pressure regulator, oiler, and water separator come standard. This configuration ships in two boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated wheel press arm\u003c\/strong\u003e - holds the bead down so one technician can work low-profile and run-flat tires.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e47 inch wheel capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e - handles larger-diameter wheels and rim widths to 15 inches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour pneumatic clamps\u003c\/strong\u003e - double-acting cylinders hold the rim through the cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-contact head\u003c\/strong\u003e - the machine never touches the rim, removing a common source of wheel damage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated bead-seating jets\u003c\/strong\u003e - inflation jets in the clamping jaws seat the bead quickly and safely.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConditioned air supply\u003c\/strong\u003e - pressure regulator, oiler, and water separator are standard.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTuxedo Distributors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTire Changer with Press Arm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTower Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSwing arm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMax Wheel Diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWheel Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\" to 15\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInside Rim Clamp Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15\" to 28\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOutside Rim Clamp Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13\" to 24\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWorking Pressure\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e125 psi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110V, 15 Amp, Single Phase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShip Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e880 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Compares\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePress Arm\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMax Wheel Diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShip Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTC-950-WPA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e880 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTC-950\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e640 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTC-1300\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAssist arm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e41\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e975 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe wheel press arm holds the bead down for low-profile and run-flat tires.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReaches wheels up to 47 inches in diameter with rim widths to 15 inches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe non-contact head removes the rim scratching common to bar-style mounting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TC-950-WPA fits tire shops and performance shops that change a high share of low-profile, run-flat, or stiff sidewall tires and want a one-person workflow on larger wheels.
