APEX AT26 Swing Arm Tire Changer / 12-in. to 24-in. Rim Capacity
Swing-Arm Tire Changing Without the Shop Drama
The APEX AT26 Swing Arm Tire Changer is built for technicians and serious enthusiasts who need dependable performance on today’s low-profile, stiff-sidewall, and larger-diameter tire and wheel assemblies. It provides the core mounting and demounting capability needed for modern tire service without adding unnecessary complexity or cost.
For users choosing between APEX tire changers, the AT26 is the streamlined choice when you want high-torque turntable power, rigid swing arm construction, wheel protection components, and everyday reliability, but do not need the pneumatic assist tower included with the AT26A. It is a strong fit for one or two bay shops, track support operations, and serious home garages that want professional results in a more focused package.
High-Torque Turntable Control for Mounting and Demounting
The AT26 uses a high-torque electric turntable drive that delivers smooth, controlled rotation in both directions. Reversible operation lets technicians adjust rotation during mounting and demounting, helping reduce bead stress and protect expensive wheels.
This controlled motion is especially important when servicing performance tires and modern sidewall designs that require a more deliberate approach. Instead of fighting abrupt movement, technicians get predictable rotation that supports cleaner mounting and demounting work.
Rigid Swing Arm Design with Built-In Wheel Protection
A rigid swing arm tower and spring-assisted tool shaft help maintain accurate tool-head positioning with minimal deflection. This improves repeatability from wheel to wheel and helps reduce the risk of cosmetic damage on painted, machined, powder-coated, or clear-coated rims.
The AT26 includes both a hardened steel mount and demount head for durability and a polymer head for delicate finishes. Plastic clamp covers and protective components come standard, giving technicians the tools needed to service premium wheels without treating protection like an optional upgrade.
Reliable Components for Daily Tire Service
The AT26 is engineered around long-life components that help reduce maintenance and keep tire service moving. A brushless AC motor provides consistent power with lower heat, noise, and wear, while the sealed maintenance-free gearbox delivers smooth operation over years of use.
Upfront ergonomic controls keep operation intuitive, and the high-power bead breaking system with a multi-axis adjustable blade helps loosen stubborn tire assemblies. The result is a durable, straightforward swing arm tire changer built for real work, steady output, and long-term value.
