Product description

The Vertical Slide Shaft with a Tapered End is the structural backbone of the tire changer's mounting assembly. This shaft holds the mount/demount head in position and allows for height adjustments to accommodate different wheel widths. The tapered end is specifically designed to mate perfectly with tapered duckheads, providing a rock-solid connection that prevents tool deflection during use. Over time, the slide shaft can become scored or bent due to extreme leverage, which compromises the accuracy of the mounting process. Installing this high-quality replacement shaft restores smooth vertical movement and ensures that your mount head remains perfectly aligned with the rim edge.
