Description
- The Duck Head Insert is built to support scratch-free tire service by creating a protective layer between the wheel rim and the steel mount/demount duckhead tool head.
- Steel tool heads can leave marks or scuffs on alloy rims during mounting and demounting—these inserts help reduce cosmetic damage and preserve rim finish.
- Each insert is shaped according to steel duckhead profiles that follow the rim edge, helping maintain stable positioning during tire-changing operations.
- Suitable for use on automatic tire changers for both motorcycle and passenger car applications, depending on the tool head style.
- A practical consumable for tire shops and service centers focused on cleaner wheel handling, reduced rework, and improved customer satisfaction.
- Sarv offers 30+ insert designs to suit many tire changers in the market (this listing covers the specified grey Nylon 6 set).
- Lightweight construction helps technicians work efficiently while still providing a protective barrier at the point of contact.
