Pairs well with
The Katool KT-T855 Vertical Tire Press Tire Changer is built for modern shops that deal with today’s toughest tire applications—low-profile, run-flat, and stiff sidewall tires that standard machines struggle with. Instead of relying on traditional swing-arm designs, this unit uses a vertical press system to apply direct downward force, giving technicians greater control and more consistent results during mounting and demounting.
With a powerful 2,500 kg pressing force, the KT-T855 makes difficult tire jobs more manageable while reducing operator strain. This means less time fighting stubborn tires and more time keeping your bays moving. It’s a strong upgrade for shops looking to improve efficiency, especially when working with performance wheels and modern tire constructions.
Designed for real-world shop environments, the KT-T855 combines heavy-duty steel construction with a wide clamping range and simple 110V power requirement. Whether you’re running a high-volume tire shop or expanding your service capabilities, this machine delivers the performance, durability, and control needed to handle demanding tire work day after day.

Overview
What Our Customers Say
Built like a tank
It handles my F-250 like it's nothing. 12,000 lb capacity gives me confidence with the heavy trucks that come through my shop. Installation was smooth and the build quality is commercial grade all the way. Best investment I've made for my garage.
Best investment for my garage
I've always worried about dust, moisture, and dings in my garage. This solved all of that. The airflow system keeps everything clean and dry inside, Easy to set up and worth every dollar.
Easiest garage upgrade I've ever done
I was nervous about installing flooring myself but these tiles just snap together no glue, no tools, no prep work. Had my whole two-car garage done in one afternoon. It looks incredible and cleans up with just a hose. Should've done this years ago.
Worth every penny
Bought the MEC10 with the Honda GX390 engine to dig trenches and do some grading on my property. It's compact enough to fit through my backyard gate but still digs down to almost 66 inches. The Honda engine fires right up every time. Saved me thousands vs. hiring out.
