Product description

The Coats 8182550 Pivot Pin is an essential replacement part for the bead loosener cylinder on older style Rim Clamp tire changers. This pin acts as the primary hinge point, allowing the cylinder to pivot smoothly during the bead-breaking process. Constructed from hardened steel, it is designed to withstand the significant lateral forces generated when separating stubborn tire beads from rims. A worn or bent pivot pin can cause misalignment in the bead loosener arm, leading to inefficient operation or potential damage to the cylinder seals. Replacing this pin restores the mechanical precision needed for effortless tire demounting.
