Balco SilverLine SL22 Tyre Changer

We are not inclined to use the word ‘budget’ or ‘economy’, because it is all too easily associated with low cost machines found online which simply cannot be compared to a machine like this.
Our ethos behind the ‘BaseLine’ model is to serve the customer who perhaps doesn’t see tyres as their main business, or could be getting into tyres for the first time, but wants to invest in a reputable product that is designed to last and without the risk attached with extremely low cost tyre machines from unknown brands.
We know what it costs to build a tyre changer, ship it half way across the world, deliver/install it, support it, and stay in business as a result. Those costs are the same for everyone, and so when we see machines that are priced so cheap that ‘it seems too good to be true’, it is invariably because it is! You have to ask yourself what are you getting at the price you are paying. Simply put, buying a ‘cheap’ tyre changer is a totally false economy. One damaged wheel, or one replacement gearbox, and it is actually a very expensive machine. The SL22 is designed to provide the same level of build quality and reliability you would expect from a machine bearing the Balco name, but it simply doesn’t include all the ‘frill’s that you would deem more necessary for higher volume or specialist users. Italian engineering from a company with 50 years experience is the first piece of reassurance you can take from this capable machine, and the fact that it is one of the most widely used models in the UK is another. 24” clamping (22” external) and the original, oft-copied but never equalled ‘HP’ assist arm ensures run-flats and difficult tyres fitted to expensive alloy rims are dealt with easily, and the comfort of the 2 year warranty supports what we say about what you can expect in terms of quality. Owner Reassurance – You’re in safe hands! The SL22 comes with a 2 Year Warranty (12 months parts and labour, 12 months parts only) and the full support of the Industry’s best team in terms of experience and customer service.
