Tilt-back Semi Automatic Tire Changer, Pneumatic Assist Arm, 14" - 28" Rim Clamping, CETL Certified TMG-TC28A

The TMG-TC28A is a semi-automatic tire changer that combines the proven performance of the TMG-TC28 with the added muscle of the built-in TMG-PAT28 pneumatic assist arm. Designed for small to medium tire shops and general auto service centers, it delivers efficient, rim-safe tire changes across a wide range of tire sizes and styles.

Its 120V single-phase electric motor powers smooth, repeated tire removal, while four heavy-duty self-centering jaws with dual pneumatic cylinders clamp rims from 14" to 28". Protective covers on each jaw tooth help prevent rim damage, ensuring a clean, professional result. The integrated assist arm handles stiff sidewalls and beads with ease, reducing operator fatigue and increasing speed.

Pedal controls give full control during operation, and the horizontal swing arm with bidirectional turntable simplifies mounting and dismounting. Compact, electric, and shop-ready, the TMG-TC28A is a reliable solution built to make tough tire jobs easier and faster.

If you don’t need the Pneumatic Assist Arm, you can order the TMG-TC28.
