BendPak Inc. has updated its Dannmar brand tire changers, DT-50 and DT-50A, to include a swing-arm design and steel clamps to handle 12-inch to 16-inch wheels.
According to BendPak officials, the DT-50A adds a power-assist tower for stiff sidewalls, plus both tire changers have rigid hexagonal vertical shafts and hardened-steel horizontal outrigger support arms to eliminate the flex during tire service and reduce the risk of damage to alloy wheels.
The bead breaker blade has received a rubber bump-stop to ensure a smooth arm return, reducing shock loading, and the stainless steel and aluminum pneumatic cylinders have received internal end-of-stroke cushions that protect the seals, wear band and piston rod.
“Dannmar’s tire changers are designed to meet the needs of the modern shop,” says John Vera, product specialist, Dannmar.
“They offer the right mix of innovative features that make changing a wide range of tires fast and easy, with a machine that is compact and cost-effective, delivering maximum return on investment.”
Dannmar is offering special reduced pricing on all its wheel service equipment through its Big Deals promotion until March 31, 2023.
