Description
- This rigid Pump Ring is engineered for truck tire service where bead seating is difficult due to air escaping between the tire bead and rim.
- Designed for 22.5-inch rim diameter truck tires, it is seated over the rim so it creates a firm perimeter wall that helps contain air during initial inflation.
- It is especially useful on deformed rims and hard-to-seat tires, including radial and bias-belted constructions, where standard inflation struggles to build enough pressure to seat the bead.
- As air pressure increases, the pump ring helps maintain a seal between the rim and tire, allowing the bead to move into the rim flange properly.
- Once the tire is seated and fully inflated, the ring is removed by sliding it off over the rim.
- Built from high-quality metal for workshop-grade durability, it also includes a rubber insert ring inside to provide friction during removal and help reduce rim contact damage.
- The internal rubber ring can be replaced using Part No. 224222R, helping maintain performance without replacing the entire tool.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a Pump Ring used for in tire service?
A Pump Ring helps seat the tire bead by reducing air leakage during initial inflation so pressure can build and push the bead into place.
Which rim size is this rigid pump ring designed for?
This model is designed for 22.5-inch truck rims.
What makes this pump ring “rigid”?
It has a strong metal body that holds its shape and forms a stable wall around the rim during inflation.
When should I choose a rigid pump ring instead of a flexible one?
A rigid design is often preferred for truck service when extra stability is needed, especially on deformed rims or stubborn bead seating situations.
Can it be used on deformed rims?
Yes, it is intended for deformed rims where leakage makes bead seating difficult.
Does it work with radial and bias-belted tires?
Yes, it is suitable for both radial and bias-belted tires that are hard to seat.
What is the purpose of the inner rubber ring?
The inner rubber ring adds friction for smoother removal and helps protect the rim surface from damage.
Can the inner rubber ring be replaced?
Yes, the inner rubber ring is replaceable.
