Description
- The Duck Head Insert helps support scratch-free tire service by creating a protective layer between the wheel rim and the steel mount/demount duckhead.
- During tire changes, steel tool heads can leave marks on alloy rims—these inserts help reduce scuffs and cosmetic damage.
- Each insert is shaped according to common steel duckhead profiles that follow the rim edge, helping ensure consistent contact and protection.
- Suitable for use on automatic tire changers for both motorcycle and passenger car applications.
- A practical consumable for tire shops that want to protect wheel finishes, reduce rework, and deliver cleaner results to customers.
- Sarv offers 30+ insert designs to suit many tire changers available in the market (this listing covers the specified grey Nylon 6 set).
- Lightweight and easy to install/remove, supporting efficient daily operation without adding bulk at the tool head.
