Hunter Engineering has launched the TC3300, its latest center-clamping tire changers.
The quick clamp design, said Hunter, allows for fast, simple clamping of popular wheel designs. The center wheel support allows users to easily mount large assemblies with overall diameters up to 50 inches, and wheels clamp to the machine through the hub, not on the rim edge, where marring damage can occur.
The high-torque electric motor exerts 800 ft-lbs. of torque “to handle difficult assemblies,” Hunter said, and “the floating, articulated mounting arm allows the polymer mounting head to follow the rim edge smoothly, reducing stress to beads.”
All TC3300 models include Hunter’s “familiar bead-loosening side shovel and blast inflation hose to help seat the bead during inflation.”
