The YD09-012 Series 3PCS Heavy-Duty Tire Removal & Installation Tool is a multi-functional tool set designed specifically for "efficient removal/installation of heavy-duty vehicle tires + multi-scenario metal processing". Addressing the pain points of traditional tire tools such as "single function, poor adaptability, and insufficient portability", it takes "durable 45# steel material + 3-piece coordinated work + 7 dies for expansion" as the core, combined with different structural designs (separable/welded/thickened/ordinary) for various models, to achieve the core needs of "heavy tire removal & installation, metal bending processing, and portable mobile operations". It is suitable for auto repair shops, logistics fleets, metal processing stores and other scenarios, with core advantages as follows:
-
Integrally Forged 45# Steel, Maximum Durability
The entire series adopts high-quality 45# carbon structural steel, which undergoes quenching and tempering heat treatment (hardness up to HRC28-32) and can withstand the impact force (≤500N) during heavy tire removal & installation. The shovel edge is quenched (hardness HRC50), so it will not curl even after repeatedly prying the tire bead. Among them, the thickness of the YD09-012C (Thickness Type) body is 3mm thicker than the ordinary model, with 40% higher wear resistance. Even if 10 heavy tires are disassembled and installed daily, its service life can still reach more than 5 years, reducing later replacement costs.
-
3-Piece Coordinated Work, Doubling Removal & Installation Efficiency
Each set includes 3 tools: "removal hook, shovel, auxiliary rod". The removal hook is used to separate the tire from the wheel hub (suitable for 11-24 inch heavy tires), the shovel assists in prying the tire bead (avoiding damage to the wheel hub coating), and the auxiliary rod can extend the force arm to save 30% effort. Compared with single-tool operation, the 3-piece division of labor can shorten the time for removing and installing a single heavy tire from 40 minutes to 15 minutes, and is suitable for the whole process of "first removal then installation" (the upper tool removes the tire, the lower tool installs the tire), no need to match other equipment additionally.
-
7 Dies + Multi-Scenario Expansion, Functions Not Limited to Tires
7 types of round dies (sizes: 1", 1-1/4”, 1-1/2”, 1-3/4”, 2”, 2-1/2”, 3”) are included with the tool. In addition to tire removal & installation, it can also be used for metal bending processing—such as making single letters, anchor bolts, U bolts, pipe clamps, handles, etc. Equipped with a right-angle attachment, it can accurately bend metal parts at 90°, adapting to the dual needs of "tire maintenance + small metal parts processing" in auto repair shops, and its practicality is 200% higher than that of single tire tools.

Multi-Model Structural Design, Adapting to Different Scenario Needs
- YD09-012A (Separable Type) : Separable components can be disassembled separately, easy to store in narrow spaces (such as truck toolboxes), suitable for mobile maintenance teams to carry;
- YD09-012B (Welding Type) : Integrally welded body has no loosening risk, with excellent stability, suitable for long-term use in fixed workstations (such as heavy tire maintenance areas in auto repair shops);
- YD09-012C (Thickness Type) : Pre-drilled design (4 pcs 5/8” mounting holes), can be fixed on the workbench, adapting to high-frequency metal processing scenarios;
- YD09-012D (Ordinary Type) : 7.3KG lightweight body, can be moved short distances by one person, suitable for small repair shops or individual senior users.
-
Heavy Tire Maintenance in Large and Medium-Sized Auto Repair Shops
When an auto repair shop undertakes tire replacement business for heavy trucks (e.g., Dongfeng Tianlong with 22-inch tires), it uses the YD09-012B (Welding Type) tool: the welded body is stably fixed at the workstation, the 3-piece set works in coordination to quickly separate the tire from the wheel hub, and 7 types of dies can also make suitable U bolts on demand; the maintenance time per vehicle is shortened from 1 hour to 30 minutes, and the number of heavy vehicle maintenance orders that can be received per day is increased from 15 to 25, adapting to the needs of "efficient heavy tire operations in large shops".
-
Mobile Inspection and Repair of Logistics Fleets
When a logistics fleet (equipped with 10 heavy trucks) goes out to perform transportation tasks, it carries the YD09-012A (Separable Type) tool: the separable components are disassembled and placed in the truck toolbox. If a tire failure occurs on the way, the tool can be quickly assembled to complete removal & installation; the lightweight design (15.3KG) is easy for two people to carry and cooperate, and emergency maintenance can be completed without returning to the urban area, adapting to the "mobile emergency inspection and repair of fleets" scenario and reducing the risk of transportation delays.
-
Small Parts Production in Metal Processing Stores
When a metal processing store customizes small metal parts (such as anchor bolts, pipe clamps) for customers, it uses the YD09-012C (Thickness Type) tool: it is fixed on the workbench through pre-drilled holes, 7 types of dies can bend metal parts of different sizes, and the right-angle attachment ensures accurate bending angles; compared with large bending equipment, the tool is flexible to operate, suitable for small-batch and multi-specification parts processing, adapting to the "precision metal processing in small shops" scenario and expanding the business scope.
-
Multi-Scenario Operations in Small Repair Shops
When a small repair shop undertakes both "heavy motorcycle tire maintenance + farmers' metal handle production" businesses, the YD09-012D (Ordinary Type) tool can meet dual needs: it is lightweight and labor-saving when disassembling and installing motorcycle tires (e.g., Harley-Davidson with 18-inch tires), and can accurately bend through dies when making metal handles; the 7.8KG gross weight is easy to store in the corner of the store without occupying too much space, adapting to the "multi-business compatibility in small shops" scenario and improving the profitability of a single store.
A1: Regular use is not recommended. The tool is originally designed for "heavy tires", and the size of the shovel and hook is relatively large. When removing and installing ordinary tires of family cars, it is easy to scratch the wheel hub surface or damage the tire bead due to improper force control; if it is necessary to take into account ordinary tires, it is recommended to match the YD09-004 lightweight tool specially designed for family cars by the manufacturer to avoid loss caused by mismatching between the equipment and the tire.
A2: It can be solved through "special storage + marking management": ① Purchase a thick canvas tool bag with suitable size (1100×300×300mm is recommended), divide storage grids according to the shape of the tool, and place the parts correspondingly; ② Mark the model (such as "YD09-012A-01") on the surface of separable parts (such as auxiliary rods, dies) with laser engraving for easy identification of ownership; ③ Check the parts against the manual list after each use, and store them only after confirming that there is no omission, to avoid missing parts affecting use during outdoor operations.
A3: Rust can be restored through cleaning and rust prevention: ① Use a steel wire brush to remove rust on the mold surface, then gently polish it with sandpaper (800 mesh) until the surface is smooth; ② Apply industrial petroleum jelly or rust-proof oil (once every 3 months is recommended) to form a protective film to isolate water vapor; ③ Put the mold into a sealed plastic bag when storing to avoid contact with humid air, which can extend the service life of the mold to more than 3 years; if the rust is severe and causes dimensional deviation, contact the manufacturer to purchase original molds of the same model (7 types of molds in one set cost 199 yuan).
A4: Installation needs to focus on two points: "load-bearing + positioning": ① Choose a solid wood or steel structure workbench with a load-bearing capacity ≥50KG to avoid loosening after installation due to insufficient load-bearing capacity of the workbench; ② Measure the distance between pre-drilled holes with a tape measure before installation, mark the drilling position on the workbench (the hole diameter must match the 5/8” bolt), and the drilling depth is ≥30mm to ensure that the bolt is completely fixed; ③ Tighten the bolts by the diagonal tightening method (tighten 2 diagonal bolts first, then the remaining 2) to avoid uneven stress on the body. After installation, test the shaking of the tool, and it can be put into use if there is no deviation.
