The iDeal TC-400M-B-iDEAL Motorcycle Tire Changer is a professional-grade tire changing solution specifically engineered for motorcycle and ATV applications. Designed with the unique challenges of motorcycle wheels in mind, this tire changer delivers the precision, power, and protection required for modern motorcycle shops, ATV service centers, and serious enthusiasts who demand shop-quality results.
Built to handle wheels from 6" to 24" outside clamping range, the TC-400M-B accommodates everything from small dirt bike wheels to large touring motorcycle and ATV tires up to 38" in diameter and 12.5" wide. The innovative raised clamp design allows you to mount and dismount tires with disc brakes and drive components still installed on the wheel—saving valuable time and eliminating the hassle of disassembly.
The iDeal TC-400M-B is purpose-built for the unique demands of motorcycle and ATV tire changing. The outside clamping system features four adjustable clamps that provide secure, stable clamping across the full working range. Each clamp utilizes double-acting pneumatic cylinders for powerful, consistent clamping force that holds wheels firmly in place during demounting and mounting operations.
What sets this tire changer apart is its wheel-friendly design. All clamping touch points feature plastic protective surfaces that grip securely while minimizing the risk of scratching or marring expensive aluminum, chrome, or powder-coated wheels. This is critical when working with custom wheels, show bikes, or high-end motorcycles where wheel finish is paramount.
The machine includes two demount heads—a smaller head optimized for ATV applications and a larger head designed for motorcycle tires. Both demount heads incorporate plastic wheel protection, ensuring that even during the most challenging bead-breaking and tire removal operations, your customer's wheels remain safe from damage.
Breaking stubborn beads on motorcycle tires requires serious force, and the TC-400M-B delivers with its powerful pneumatic bead breaker. The bead breaker applies concentrated force exactly where needed to separate even the most stubborn tire beads from the rim, making quick work of old, stuck, or stiff sidewalls.
Once the tire is mounted, the included easy-to-use handheld inflation gun makes seating beads and inflating tires simple and safe. The gun gives you precise control over air delivery, allowing you to seat beads quickly while monitoring pressure. The system operates at 125 PSI working pressure, providing ample power for all motorcycle and ATV tire applications.
For reliable, clean operation, the TC-400M-B comes complete with a regulator, oiler, and water trap, ensuring your air supply is properly conditioned and your pneumatic components stay lubricated and moisture-free for long service life.
