Atlas TC229 Rim-Clamp Tire Changer with Beadblaster – 110V

The Atlas TC229 Rim-Clamp Tire Changer is a professional swing-arm tire changing machine designed for passenger-car and light-truck tire service. With a powerful pneumatic bead breaker, integrated Beadblaster inflation system, and adjustable rim-clamping jaws, the TC229 provides reliable performance for tire shops, automotive repair facilities, dealerships, farms, and home garages.

Powered by a 1 HP electric motor, the turntable produces approximately 885 ft-lbs of rotating torque, providing the strength needed for routine tire mounting and demounting operations.

Integrated Beadblaster System

The TC229 features an integrated Beadblaster system that directs a powerful burst of compressed air between the tire and rim.

This helps expand the tire during inflation and assists with seating difficult beads onto the wheel, making it particularly useful when conventional inflation alone is not sufficient.

5,500 lb Pneumatic Bead Breaker

A powerful pneumatic bead breaker delivers up to 5,500 lbs of force to help separate stubborn tire beads from wheel rims.

The machine requires an external compressed-air supply and is designed to operate with approximately 90–110 PSI of air pressure.

Adjustable Rim-Clamping System

The turntable features adjustable clamping jaws with three different mounting positions, providing flexibility when working with different wheel sizes.

The TC229 supports an external rim clamping range of approximately 9-3/4 to 23-1/4 inches and an internal rim clamping range of approximately 11-5/8 to 25-1/4 inches.

Professional Tire-Service Capability

The TC229 can accommodate tires up to approximately 39 inches in overall diameter and wheels up to 13 inches wide at the bead breaker.

Its swing-arm configuration provides straightforward access to the wheel during tire mounting and demounting, making it a practical solution for everyday tire-service operations.
