Atlas® TC229DAA Tire Changer with Dual Assist Arms #ATETC229DAA-FPD

Atlas® TC229DAA Tire Changer with Dual Assist Arms

Most passenger and light-truck tire jobs don't need a machine built for oversized wheels — they need a solid, reliable changer that won't have a technician fighting stiff sidewalls solo. The Atlas® TC229DAA is sized specifically for everyday shop work, with a 9 3/4"–23 1/4" clamping range that covers the bulk of what rolls into a general-service bay.

Unlike the larger TC289DAA, which is built around a bigger turntable for oversized wheels, the TC229DAA keeps the same dual-assist-arm advantage in a smaller, less expensive package sized for standard passenger and light-truck work — at $600 less than its larger sibling.

Who the TC229DAA Is Built For

• A general-service shop whose daily wheel mix rarely exceeds 23", where paying for a larger-capacity changer would mean paying for capacity that never gets used.
• A two-technician bay where one tech mounts and the other demounts, and both need full control from either side of the wheel on stiff, high-mileage sidewalls without waiting for a shared assist arm.
• A shop replacing an aging single-arm changer that's slowing down mount/demount on daily passenger and light-truck jobs, looking for dual arms standard instead of a costly add-on.
• An owner opening a second bay who needs a proven, everyday workhorse at a lower price point than the shop's primary large-wheel changer.
• A tire dealer handling steady volumes of steel, aluminum, and alloy passenger wheels who wants 5,500 lb. of bead-breaking force without paying for a bigger footprint they don't have room for.
• A shop with a compact bay layout that needs the standard 77"x60" footprint instead of a larger-capacity machine's added floor space requirement.

What the TC229DAA Is NOT Built For

Shops that need to handle larger wheels beyond 23 1/4" should look at the Atlas TC289DAA — it stretches to 27 7/8" for larger passenger and light-truck work.
