Product Summary

The APEX AT26A is a performance-driven swing arm tire changer built for growing shops and serious garages that demand commercial capability without commercial-grade pricing. Featuring a high-torque electric turntable, pneumatic assist tower, and robust bead-breaking system, the AT26A handles today’s low-profile, stiff sidewall, and oversized wheels with speed, control, and confidence. Backed by BendPak engineering and industry-leading warranty and support, it delivers real shop performance at a smart value. Built for Real Tire Work, Not Light Duty Toys The APEX AT26A is designed for shops and serious home garages that regularly service modern wheels and tires and need equipment that can keep up. From low-profile performance tires to larger light-truck assemblies, the AT26A delivers the power, rigidity, and control required to work efficiently and protect expensive wheels in the process. This is not a hobby-grade machine. The AT26A is built on BendPak’s proven engineering standards, using heavy-duty components, rigid construction, and precision controls to deliver consistent results day after day. It is the right fit for growing shops, side-hustle businesses, track support operations, and performance-focused garages that want commercial capability without overbuying into industrial pricing. High-Torque Power with Controlled Precision At the core of the AT26A is a high-torque electric turntable drive that provides smooth, controlled rotation in both directions. Reversible operation allows technicians to adjust rotation instantly during mounting and demounting, reducing bead stress and minimizing the risk of tire or wheel damage. Unlike entry-level machines that rely on abrupt or inconsistent motion, the AT26A’s controlled rotation gives the bead time to relax and move properly, making it easier to work with stiff sidewalls, run-flat designs, and performance tires that demand a more delicate approach.
