Product description

The M/D Tool Protection insert is a specialized plastic guard for the Mount/Demount head (duck head) on Snap-On and Hofmann tire changers. This protector is the primary point of contact between the tire machine and the wheel rim during the critical mounting process, and its soft yet durable material prevents the hardened steel head from scratching or gouging the wheel surface. Regular replacement of this protection insert is vital for maintaining a damage-free service record, especially when working with expensive alloy and custom aftermarket rims. It is designed for quick and easy replacement to minimize downtime and ensure that every tire change is performed with the highest level of care.
