Coats RC-45 Rim Clamp Tire Changer:

The Coats RC-45 is designed to provide dependable tire mounting and demounting for professional automotive repair shops and tire service facilities. Its swing-arm design and four air-operated rim clamps provide a practical combination of versatility, durability, and ease of operation for everyday passenger car and light truck tire service.

The RC-45 accommodates external rim diameters from 6" to 24" and tires up to 50" in diameter. The manual swing arm allows technicians to position the mount/demount tool during tire removal and installation, while the foot-controlled bead loosener helps separate the tire bead from the wheel rim.

The integrated bead seating system includes built-in bead sealing jets and a 3.4-gallon air reservoir to assist technicians with tire inflation and bead seating. Together, these features help streamline common tire service operations and improve shop productivity.

Air-Powered or Electric-Powered RC-45:

The RC-45 is available in two power configurations, allowing shops to select the version that best suits their existing equipment and operating requirements.

Air-Powered RC-45 (85609949): Features a 1.5 HP pneumatic drive system designed for shops with adequate compressed air capacity. The air-powered model operates with an air supply of 110 to 175 PSI and approximately 15 SCFM.

Electric RC-45 (8560994901): Features a 1 HP electric drive motor operating on 115V, 60 Hz, 15 Amp electrical service. The electric motor powers wheel rotation while the machine's clamping, bead loosening, and bead seating functions continue to use compressed air.

Both versions provide the same basic tire changing capabilities and include the Coats RC-450 2D Wheel Balancer as part of this combination package.

Coats RC-450 2D Wheel Balancer:

The Coats RC-450 is a computerized wheel balancer designed for everyday automotive tire service. Its automatic 2D measurement system, laser-guided weight placement, and intuitive touchpanel interface provide a practical solution for shops that need dependable wheel balancing performance without the complexity of advanced diagnostic equipment.

The RC-450 accommodates wheel assemblies weighing up to 130 lbs. and supports a broad range of passenger car, SUV, and light truck applications. Its compact design makes it suitable for general repair shops, independent tire dealers, and automotive service facilities.

Automatic 2D Wheel Data Entry:

The RC-450 automatically captures wheel offset distance and diameter during setup, reducing the need for manual measurements and helping minimize technician input errors. This simplifies the balancing process and allows technicians to begin wheel service more quickly and consistently.

For shops performing frequent tire and wheel service, automatic data entry helps reduce repetitive setup steps and improve overall operating efficiency.

Laser Guided Weight Placement:

The RC-450 features a built-in 6 o'clock laser guide that visually identifies the proper location for adhesive corrective weights. This helps technicians position wheel weights accurately while reducing the guesswork associated with manually locating weight placement points.

Laser guidance is particularly beneficial when servicing alloy wheels that use concealed adhesive weights rather than conventional clip-on weights.

Static-On-Screen:

The RC-450 includes Static-On-Screen technology, allowing technicians to evaluate residual static imbalance during the balancing process. This provides additional information to help technicians achieve consistent wheel balancing results.

Combined with automatic 2D data entry and laser-guided weight placement, Static-On-Screen supports efficient, repeatable wheel balancing for common automotive applications.

Light Truck Wheel Balancing Accessories:

The RC-450 includes a standard Light Truck D Cone for applicable light truck wheel mounting applications. For shops servicing larger pickup truck wheels with oversized center bores, the optional Coats Light Truck Cone Kit (8113277C) expands the range of compatible wheel assemblies.

The optional kit accommodates larger light truck wheel center bores from approximately 4.8" to 6.8". This makes it a useful upgrade for shops that regularly service larger pickup trucks and light-duty commercial vehicles.
