Katool KT-308 Mobile Truck Car Tire Changer

The Katool KT-308 is a fully electric, mobile-ready tire changer built for trucks, buses, and commercial vehicles — handling wheels up to 54 inches (138cm) in diameter and 750kg in weight. Where most machines in this category rely on compressed air, the KT-308 runs on a 400V, 3-phase electric system with a 1.1kW hydraulic pump and 1.5kW rotary motor, delivering consistent torque without an air supply on site. At 470kg and a footprint of 122 x 104cm, it fits inside most service vans and mobile tire units. Note: requires 400V, 3-phase power for operation.

The automatic clamping arm moves horizontally via hydraulic pressure, locking onto the wheel quickly and securely without manual adjustment at each step. The 24V control unit manages the full sequence — clamping, bead breaking, and rotation — with a 7 rpm bidirectional claw system that handles both removal and mounting. Impression force reaches 2,500kg (24.5 kN) at 130 bar operating pressure, which is what you need when you're breaking beads on heavy commercial tires that have been seated for years. Noise output runs between 40 and 65 dB, noticeably quieter than comparable hydraulic machines — relevant in enclosed shop environments or when working near customers.

The KT-308 is the right fit for truck and bus service centers that need a dedicated heavy-duty changer to keep pace with daily volume, roadside assistance and mobile tire units that need full capability without depending on a fixed air supply, and fleet maintenance operations managing large commercial vehicles where wheel size and weight rule out standard passenger tire equipment. The rim compatibility range of 13" to 26" also means it handles mixed fleets without a second machine.
