Tuxedo Wheel Balancer | WB-953
The Full-Hood Wheel Balancer Sized for the Independent Tire and Wheel Shop
The Tuxedo WB-953 is a full-feature wheel balancer with an integrated 38 inch hood, Car and Motorcycle balancing modes and 1-gram accuracy. Handles wheels up to 24 inch rim diameter, 39 inch overall wheel diameter, 1.5 to 20 inch rim width and up to 150 lb per wheel. That covers every passenger-car, SUV and light-truck wheel a tire shop sees.
A LED touch-panel keypad with icon-based controls makes it easy for a new tech to run all balancing functions on day one. Multi-user mode lets two operators work simultaneously with different settings. Multiple balancing modes (Static, Dynamic, 3 ALU) cover every wheel type. Self-calibrating and self-diagnosing for improved uptime and serviceability.
The heavy-duty 36 mm balancing shaft handles the widest range of aftermarket wheels. Speed-Nut mounting locks wheels down in seconds. Includes electronic braking system, integrated centering spring and 23 articulated weight-storage pockets over 1.5 inches deep. Side-mounted storage pegs keep cones and calipers where you need them. Runs on 110V single-phase 15 A. Backed by Tuxedo one-year parts warranty.
Key Features of the WB-953 That Matter in a Real Tire and Wheel Bay:
- Full 38 in Wheel Hood Included: The 38 inch wheel hood keeps debris from flying off the tire during a balance cycle. Full commercial-grade safety, no upgrade needed.
- Car and Motorcycle Balancing Modes: Standard with Car and Motorcycle balancing modes. One machine handles the shop's passenger-car wheels plus any motorcycle work that comes in.
- LED Touch-Panel Keypad with Icons: Touch-panel keypad with easy-to-read icon controls. New techs can run every balancing function without a manual.
- 1-Gram Accuracy: 1-gram accuracy across the full 10 to 24 inch rim range. Real precision balance every time, not a rough zero-weight-showing cycle.
- Heavy-Duty 36 mm Balancing Shaft: 36 mm balancing shaft accommodates the widest range of aftermarket wheels of different sizes and shapes.
- Speed-Nut Mounting: Speed-Nut quick-release mounting locks wheels down in seconds with a convenient lead-in screw. Saves real time per cycle.
- Multi-User Two-Operator Mode: Two operators can work simultaneously with different measurement settings. Handy for busy bays with a second tech.
- 23 Articulated Weight Storage Pockets: Multi-pocket wheel weight shelf with 23 articulated pockets over 1.5 in deep. Plenty of storage for weights, tooling and cones without a separate rack.
