AME International has introduced two products designed to enhance safety and efficiency for Off-the-Road technicians – the Gator Bite Wedges and the 3-Step.
Both products will be unveiled at the 2025 Off-the-Road Tire Industry Association conference in San Juan, Puerto Rice from Feb. 19-22.
The Gator Wedge Bites are designed for precision and strength and offer a compact yet effective way to create secure separation between tire components during service.
The new Gator Wedge Bites feature a specialized anti-slip surface with rugged and lightweight wedges providing grip, reducing movement and enhancing technician safety.
The wedges come in two size combinations offered to fit the technicians' preferences: 1 centimeter by 4 centimeters on product No. 11510 and 3 centimeters by 4 centimeters on product No. 11515.
Also joining AME’s product lineup is the bead seat band spacer, newly named the 3-Step – product No. 11500.
This spacer is designed to keep the technician’s fingers safe when working on large OTR tires. The 3-Step design allows one-inch, two-inch and three-inch stages to enhance safety and efficiency.
“At AME International, we’re constantly looking for ways to make tire service safer, easier, and more efficient,” says Keith Jarman, president of AME International.
“These new products are a direct response to the needs of our customers—built with quality, tested in the field and designed to help technicians perform at their best.
The Gator Bites and 3-Step are available now.
