Next-Generation Wheel Balancing Technology
The Atlas WB49-2 represents the very latest generation of Atlas Wheel Balancers, combining cutting-edge technology with practical design to deliver professional-grade wheel balancing for modern automotive shops. This self-calibrating 2D wheel balancer eliminates guesswork and speeds up your workflow with automatic data entry that measures offset and diameter using the inner measuring gauge—no manual input required for most wheels.
With its all-new monitor-style large LED display and redesigned chassis, the WB49-2 offers exceptional readability and a sleek, modern aesthetic that fits seamlessly into any professional bay. The higher display position reduces eye strain during long shifts, while the large weight tray keeps your workspace organized and efficient.
Luxury features come standard with the WB49-2. The Split-Weight Function allows discreet placement of weights behind wheel spokes for a cleaner appearance, and the automatic LED light illuminates the inside of the rim precisely when you need it—making weight application faster and more accurate, especially on dark or complex wheel designs.
Professional-Grade Performance and Precision
Built to handle everything from compact cars to light trucks, the WB49-2 accommodates wheels up to 39" in diameter and 150 lbs. in weight. The 40mm shaft provides robust support, while the adjustable rim width range of 1½" to 20" and rim diameter capacity of 10" to 32" ensure compatibility with virtually any passenger vehicle or light truck wheel that comes through your shop.
Precision is where the WB49-2 truly shines. With 1 gram accuracy and 1.4° weight position resolution, this balancer delivers pinpoint balancing that eliminates vibration and extends tire life. The 150 RPM balancing speed ensures rapid results without sacrificing accuracy, while the self-calibration feature maintains consistent performance over time with minimal maintenance.
Operation is intuitive and effortless. The automatic positioning system tells you exactly where to apply weights, eliminating guesswork. The automatic and pedal-operated brake gives you control, while the automatic start/stop function activates when the hood is lowered or raised—streamlining your workflow and reducing cycle time per wheel.
Advanced Features That Save Time and Money
The WB49-2 is loaded with advanced features that enhance productivity and diagnostic capability. Static and dynamic balancing modes let you handle any balancing scenario, from classic steel wheels to modern alloys. The Rapid Optimization (OPT) function identifies the best weight placement to minimize the total weight needed—saving you money on wheel weights over time.
Built-in self-diagnosis alerts you to potential issues before they become problems, reducing downtime and keeping your balancer running smoothly. The display shows measurements in both grams or ounces and mm or inches, giving you flexibility to work in your preferred units or match customer specifications.
Installation couldn't be simpler—no anchor-down installation needed. The exceptional stability of the WB49-2 chassis ensures accurate readings between planes without the need for permanent floor mounting. Just position it in your bay, plug it into standard 110V / 1 phase power, and you're ready to balance wheels. The ¼ HP motor provides ample power while remaining energy efficient.
