AA Truck Radial Tire Bead Seater (12-18 Inch) for Heavy Duty Vehicles - Professional Tire Repair Tool for Mechanics & Auto Shops | Perfect for Emergency Roadside Repairs & Garage Use

A one-piece rubber tube for mounting hard-to-seat radial, bias-belted or conventional truck tires. As the tire is inflated, the lubricated bead seater forms a seal between the rim and tire allowing the air pressure to force the beads into the rim flange. As proper pressure is reached, the bead seater slides out and over the rim.

Note: OSHA Regulations require that service personnel use a clip-on air chuck with an inline inflator at a recommended distance that keeps the employee out of the trajectory of the tire and rim. After beads are seated, put tire and rim into approved inflation cage and continue to inflate to prescribed air pressure.
