The Atlas® TC229 + WB49-2 combination package is built for commercial and high-traffic service bays that need a faster, more automated tire mounting and balancing workflow without moving into fully industrial equipment pricing.
The TC229 rim-clamp swing arm tire changer provides a practical setup for passenger vehicles, light trucks, and ATV or motorcycle applications. It includes a built-in beadblaster to help seat stubborn tires, along with an air-operated bead breaker and clamping system (external air supply required). The electric turntable, adjustable jaw positions, and protected mount/demount head help the operator work across a wide range of wheel sizes while reducing the risk of rim damage. Standard shop accessories like the inflation gauge, lube bucket, and plastic protection covers support day-to-day tire service without additional setup complexity.
Paired with it, the Atlas WB49-2 Wheel Balancer adds a more automated balancing experience designed to improve speed and reduce operator input. It features automatic 2D data entry and supports an optional width measuring gauge for 3D data entry upgrades, allowing faster and more consistent wheel setup. The system includes split-weight functionality for hiding adhesive weights behind spokes, auto-positioning to guide weight placement, and an LED work light to improve visibility during installation. Combined with rapid optimization (OPT), static and dynamic modes, and self-calibration, the WB49-2 is built to keep workflow steady in busy environments.
This package is best suited for small to mid-sized commercial shops, tire centers, and service operations that handle consistent daily volume and need a balance between automation and operator control. Both units run on 110V power, are CE approved, and include a 1-year parts-only warranty.
