Atlas Equipment Platinum PTC500 Center Post Tire Changer w/ - Atlas Automotive

The Atlas Equipment Platinum PTC500 Center Post Tire Changer (model AP-PTC500-KIT) is engineered for professional automotive and industrial shops that regularly service premium, custom, and performance wheels. This robust ptc500 tire machine utilizes a hub-centric clamping system, designed to secure wheels without contacting the outer rim surface, thereby protecting delicate finishes and ensuring precise handling of high-value assemblies.

Key Features

• Center Post Mounting System with Smart Lock: Employs hub-centric clamping and a "Smart Lock" system for fast, secure wheel mounting, minimizing cosmetic damage by avoiding contact with painted rim surfaces. The "Smart Lock" system allows the tire to be mounted and immediately locked in position with a flip of a lever, eliminating the need to manually thread the center cone.
• Lever/No-Lever Operation: Offers technicians the flexibility to operate with a standard tire lever or switch to a fully leverless mode, optimizing efficiency and safety during tire changes on various tire types, including run-flat and low-profile tires.
• Heavy-Duty Construction & Integrated Wheel Lift: A 900 lb. rigid frame and industrial-grade components ensure stability and longevity. An integrated wheel lift helps reduce technician strain and potential damage when handling heavy wheel assemblies.
• Integrated Bead Breaking & Bead Seating: Delivers controlled force (6,924 lbs.) for efficiently separating beads on stiff sidewall, low-profile, and run-flat tires. An external bead seating system further aids in quick and efficient tire inflation.
• Versatile Wheel Compatibility: Designed to accommodate a broad spectrum of tire profiles and wheel sizes, including 12" to 30" rims, with a maximum tire diameter of 47" and wheel width up to 15". The included adapter kit expands its versatility for a wider range of tires.

• General automotive repair shops expanding or upgrading their tire service capabilities.
