You’ve watched the tire changer work a thousand times.
You’ve never really looked at its base.

The machine roars. The turret swings. The bead tool pries against the rim.
Everyone’s eyes are on the tire—about to come off.

Nobody looks at the base.

It sits on the floor. Holds the column. Carries the turret. Absorbs every shockwave from every stubborn bead, day after day.
Twenty tires a day. Ten thousand a year.
You leave. The machine stops. The base stays—waiting for you to walk in again tomorrow morning.

? Tire Changer Base (Replacement Part)
Not just a steel plate. It’s the original foundation your shop was built on.

? Load: Hundreds of Kilos, Every Day. It Never Complains.

6mm / 8mm / 10mm steel plate (varies)
Home‑grade: 4mm is enough.
Commercial‑grade: 6mm is the floor.
24‑hour tire shop? 8mm or more.
Every 22‑inch rim you’ve ever mounted? That’s tons of impact. It takes it all.

Stamped one‑piece / Welded assembly
Stamped: no welds, no stress concentration points.
Ten years later? No cracking down the middle.
Welded: double‑layer reinforcement, full‑penetration fish‑scale beads.
Weld stronger than base metal. If it breaks, something else goes first.

Anti‑slip tread / Drainage channels
Tire lube drips? You don’t slip.
Hosing down the machine? Water runs off. No puddles at your feet.

? Precision: A Wheel Rolls True When the Base Is Flat.

Machined flatness ≤ 0.5mm/m
Column mounts 1mm off vertical?
The turret leans. Bead tool can’t engage. Rim edge gets chewed.

Embedded bolt holes / Adjustable feet
New machine, new base—turn the feet, bubble centers.
Uneven floor? It levels itself.
You don’t compromise. It fixes the ground for you.

Column mount · 4× gussets
Not two thin strips welded on.
45° triangular braces. Locked from four directions.
You lean on the bead breaker. Column doesn’t shimmy. Base doesn’t budge.

? Rust Protection: Wash Chemicals, Tire Oil, Acid Rain—It’s Seen It All.

E‑coat primer + Polyurethane topcoat
Not sprayed. Electrodeposited—swimming through charged paint.
Adhesion? Your fingernail can’t defeat it.

Salt spray ≥ 500 hours
Shop by the beach? Air tastes like brine.
Three years? No rust. Five years? No perforation.
You breathe sea breeze. It takes the corrosion hit.

Edges fully finished
Not “cut and forget.”
Burrs removed. Corners radiused. Edge seal applied.
Reach underneath. No cuts.

? Compatibility: Not OEM. Fits Like OEM.

Universal mounting hole pattern
BEST, CORGHI, SATA, DALI—
Holes align. Bolts slide through. Torque down. Done.
Not forcing you to buy “genuine.” It’s willing to work with what you have.

Hydraulic / pneumatic valve mounting pads pre‑set
Some bases are just plates.
This one has spots marked—for the stuff you’ll add later.

Installation bolt kit included
Grade 8.8 high‑tensile. Not hardware‑store bin bolts.
Torque to spec. Ten years later, still tight.

? Spec Check (8mm Commercial Heavy‑Duty Example)

? Who Needs This Base?

• Tire shop owners: Machine is eight years old. Base rusted through. New machine: $3,000. New base: spare change.

• Used equipment dealers: Picked up an old changer. Column still straight. Cabinet still spins. Base is bent. Swap it. Sell it as “90% new.”

• Auto shop techs: Customer’s machine wobbles. You look under—weld cracked on the base. Replace assembly. Charge labor. Customer happy.

• Multi‑shop chains buying in bulk: New location, tight CapEx. Brand base + brand top end = assemble yourself. Save $200 per unit.

• Someone who opened shop ten years ago and never changed the base: You don’t know how much longer it’ll hold. You know if it gives out, you lose a full day of business.

One last thing:

The tire changer puts food on your table.
The base is the table itself.
