The Sleek, Powerful Tire Seater That's Built for Speed
Seats a Wide Range of Tires
From small 4in. trailer tires all the way up to 24 1/2in. truck tires, this handy compact unit can quickly, easily and effectively seat a bead to help get the tire road-ready.
Easily Seat Like a Pro
The Cheetah operates on standard shop air with a maximum of 120 PSI and utilizes a variety of features for easy operation. The 1/4in. air inlet shutoff valve matches the amount of air dispersed to the size of the tire being seated, and a pneumatic gauge makes it easy to check for the correct fill pressure. A specially designed lip keeps the threaded barrel at the perfect angle for air insertion during bead seating, while the quick-release 1 1/2in. butterfly valve spreads the air to deliver a full impact of air discharge into the tire.
Easy to Transport, Easy to Store
A carrying handle is built right into the Cheetah Bead Seater for easy portability. The unit also includes mounting feet to help protect the barrel assembly from damage and aid in storage.
Safe and Durable Construction
The 5-gallon steel tank is ASME certified as it conforms to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codes, offering peace of mind for safe operation. The tank also features a tough powder-coat finish for added durability and rust resistance.
