iDEAL Powersport Tire Changer with Pneumatic Assist Arm | TC-400M-B-PL230-K
The Powersport Tire Changer That Handles the Whole Shop from Sport Bike to ATV
The iDEAL TC-400M-B-PL230-K is a professional powersport tire changer built around the TC-400M-B chassis with the pneumatic PL230 assist arm included from the factory. That means one machine handles the widest range of powersport wheels a shop sees, from 6 inch dirt bike front hubs all the way out to 24 inch cruiser and ATV rims, and the assist arm does the heavy lifting when a stiff sidewall or a low-profile motorcycle tire fights the demount head.
A swing-arm design and four fully adjustable clamps give real full-range clamping (6 to 24 inches outside) instead of the limited two-position setup on entry-level changers. Double-acting pneumatic cylinders provide serious clamping force, and the plastic clamp protectors keep alloy rims scratch-free. The bead breaker delivers 5,500 lb of force and the demount head accepts optional protectors for wheels you cannot afford to mark.
Runs on a 110V single-phase 15 A outlet so you can install it in any bay without electrical work. Includes the electric turntable rotation, floor-pedal control set, hand-held inflation gun, regulator, oiler and water trap. Also included: set of plastic clamp protectors and two sets of duck head inserts. Choose iDEAL Blue or Limited Edition Black. Backed by iDEAL/Tuxedo one-year parts warranty against all product defects.
Key Features of the TC-400M-B-PL230-K That Matter in the Powersport Bay:
- PL230 Pneumatic Assist Arm Included: The PL230 assist arm ships mounted and ready to go. Handles low-profile motorcycle tires and stiff sidewalls that fight a manual mount, so one tech does the whole job without a helper.
- 6 to 24 in Full-Range Clamping: Swing-arm design with four adjustable clamps clamps everything from a 6 inch dirt bike hub to a 24 inch cruiser or ATV rim. No dedicated MC-only setup here, it is one machine for the whole powersport fleet.
- Double-Acting Pneumatic Clamping: Powerful double-acting pneumatic cylinders hold the wheel rock-solid while you break the bead or wrestle a tire. Plastic clamp protectors keep alloy rims free of scratches.
- 5,500 lb Bead Breaker Force: Heavy-duty bead breaker delivers 5,500 lb of force. Pops stubborn beads on cruiser tires, ATV tires and everything between without hammering with a tire iron.
- Electric Table Rotation with Floor Pedals: Electric table rotation controlled by dedicated floor pedals leaves both hands free for the tire iron and lube. Faster and safer than manual spin.
- Includes Inflation Gun + Air Prep: Hand-held inflation gun for accurate final PSI. Air-line regulator, oiler and water trap included so your air is clean and correctly pressurized without a separate wall setup.
- Duck Head Inserts + Clamp Protectors Included: Ships with a set of plastic clamp protectors and two sets of duck head inserts. Everything you need to protect the finish on premium wheels comes in the box.
- Blue or Limited Edition Black: Match the rest of your iDEAL powersport equipment (M-2200IEH-XR, A-2200IEH-XR, U-2200IEH-XR, UF-2500EH-X) in iDEAL Blue, or run the whole bay in Limited Edition Black.
