Product Information

Full details

This set of two AB Tools tyre levers is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts needing to remove tyres from cars and light commercial vans. Their key benefit lies in their robust construction, ensuring durability for demanding tasks. A potential consideration is their fixed 18-inch length, which may be less maneuverable in very confined spaces compared to shorter levers. These levers are built from strong, drop-forged steel with a rust-resistant chrome plating, featuring a tapered end for prying and a 90-degree bend for grip.

FAQs

What material are these tyre levers made from?

They are manufactured from strong drop-forged steel.

What is the purpose of the chrome plating?

The chrome plating provides resistance to rust and corrosion, enhancing durability.

How long are the tyre levers?

Each lever measures 18 inches (460mm) in length.

What are the different ends of the levers used for?

One end is tapered for prying under the tyre bead, while the other end has a 90-degree bend for leverage and holding the bead.

Are these suitable for all types of vehicles?

They are ideal for cars and light commercial vans. For heavy-duty trucks or specialized rims, different tools might be required.

How much does each tyre lever weigh?

Each lever weighs approximately 640 grams.

Can these levers be used to repair punctures?

These levers are designed solely for tyre removal and installation, not for puncture repair.

Troubleshooting

Lever feels slippery during use

Ensure your hands and the lever handle area are clean and free of grease or oil. Wear work gloves if necessary.

Difficulty prying the tyre bead

Ensure the tyre is fully deflated. Try inserting the lever closer to the rim edge and applying steady upward pressure. Use both levers in conjunction for better leverage.

Signs of rust appearing

Clean the affected area with a wire brush and apply a light coating of lubricating oil. Store the levers in a dry place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable drop-forged steel construction for heavy-duty use.
  • Chrome plating offers good rust and corrosion resistance.
  • Versatile dual-end design provides prying and holding capabilities.
  • Ample 18-inch length offers significant leverage.
  • Comes as a set of two for efficient tyre removal.

Cons

  • Fixed 18-inch length may be less practical for very tight spaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No setup is required for these tyre levers; they are ready for immediate use upon unpacking.

Compatibility: Suitable for removing tyres from most standard car and light commercial van wheels. Always ensure the lever is used correctly to avoid damaging the wheel rim or tyre.

Care: After each use, wipe the levers clean with a dry cloth to remove dirt and grease. For long-term storage, consider applying a light coat of oil to the metal surfaces to further prevent rust, especially if stored in a damp environment. Store in a dry, accessible location.
