Product description

The 28mm Clad Wheel Collet is an essential accessory for modern tire service, specifically engineered to handle the unique mounting requirements of clad wheels. Unlike standard cones, this collet provides a more secure and precise fit for the specific hub geometry of wheels with plastic or metal cladding, preventing damage to the decorative surfaces while ensuring perfect alignment on the balancing shaft. A precise 28mm bore ensures a tight fit on the balancer spindle, minimizing runout and ensuring that the wheel is balanced as it would sit on the vehicle. Professional technicians rely on these specialized collets to provide the accuracy required for high-speed balancing, which is critical for preventing vibration in modern vehicle suspensions. Durable, hardened construction ensures that the collet maintains its dimensions and finish through thousands of service cycles in a professional shop environment.
