The Atlas® TC229 electric/pneumatic wheel clamp swing arm tire changer is the ideal solution for small automotive garages, tire shops, and ATV/motorcycle dealers who need professional-grade performance with the added power of a bead blaster system. This versatile tire changer delivers the same proven clamping and tire changing capabilities found in the popular Atlas® TC221, but includes an integrated bead blaster to help you quickly inflate stiff sidewall tires, low-profile performance tires, and other "hard to inflate" applications with confidence.
Built to handle steel, aluminum, and alloy rims up to 39" in diameter, the TC229 features a powerful 4-jaw internal/external clamping system with three adjustable positions for maximum wheel size versatility. The robust pneumatic bead breaker delivers 5,500 lbs of force, making quick work of stubborn beads on passenger car, light truck, SUV, ATV, and motorcycle wheels. With 885 ft/lbs of turntable rotating torque and 110V single-phase electrical operation, this tire changer is ready to handle your daily workload with ease.
If you're working with larger pickup truck wheels (1 ton), oversized SUV tires, or plan to service agricultural equipment in the future, you may want to consider upgrading to the Atlas® TC289 wheel clamp tire changer for additional capacity. But for most small to mid-size automotive and powersports applications, the TC229 delivers professional results at an outstanding value.
The TC229 offers exceptional flexibility with three clamping positions for both internal and external clamping modes. In standard automotive configuration, the outside locking rim clamp handles wheels from 9 3/4" to 23 1/4" across three positions, while the inside locking clamp accommodates 11 5/8" to 25 1/4". The maximum wheel width for the bead breaker is 13 inches, providing ample capacity for most passenger vehicle and light truck applications.
When equipped with optional flip adapters, the TC229 transforms into a capable ATV/motorcycle tire changer. ATV configuration allows clamping wheels as small as 2 7/8" up to 16 5/8", while motorcycle configuration extends the range from 12 5/8" to 26 3/8". This makes the TC229 an excellent choice for powersports dealers and shops that service both automotive and recreational vehicles.
Atlas Automotive Equipment designs every tire changer with the professional technician in mind. The TC229 operates on standard 110V single-phase power and requires 90-110 PSI compressed air (maximum inlet pressure 140 PSI). The included oiler, filter, and regulator assembly ensures clean, lubricated air reaches all pneumatic components for long service life and consistent performance.
Four black plastic rim protectors are included to safeguard expensive alloy and chrome wheels during the tire changing process. The built-in soap reservoir and tire inflator keep essential tools within arm's reach, streamlining your workflow and reducing service time. With a shipping weight of 500 lbs, the TC229 is solidly built for years of dependable operation in demanding shop environments.
