Ken-Tool said it has introduced "the world’s largest single release inflation cage," made from heavy gauge steel tubing welded to a steel base. Measuring 48x72x89 inches, the cage guards both technicians and the shop environment against injury and damage from the explosions that stem from blown locking drums on large earthmover and agricultural tires.
Designed for maximum inflation pressure up to 100 psi, the new cage features sturdy 10-bar construction and fits up to 29.5R25 L-3 earthmover tire and wheel assemblies, according to the company. It joins a family of seven other Ken-Tool inflation cages designed for smaller truck and agricultural tires.
