Anyone who works on HGV's, buses, trailers or commercial vehicles knows the frustration of seized dual wheels. Corrosion, road salt and years of service can bond the inner and outer wheels together, turning what should be a straightforward tyre change into a time consuming battle.
That's exactly why the Sykes-Pickavant 20810000 Dual Wheel Separator Set has become an essential addition to professional workshops.
Many technicians have experienced the traditional methods of freeing seized dual wheels - large hammers, pry bars, excessive force and plenty of wasted time. Not only can these methods be physically demanding, but they also increase the risk of damaging expensive wheels.
The 20810000 Dual Wheel Separator has been designed to apply controlled, even force exactly where it's needed. The pusher screw breaks the corrosion bond between the wheels without distortion, helping technicians remove stubborn wheels quickly and safely.
Whether you are maintaining a fleet of trucks, servicing buses, repairing trailers, working on agricultural equipment or maintaining motor homes, versatility matters.
The kit includes interchangeable 1-7/8" and 2" adaptors, allowing it to fit a wide range of dual wheel openings. Combined with its robust constructions, it provides a reliable solution wherever seized dual wheels are encountered.
If you would like to see the tool in action, Captain Jack Spanners recently featured the Dual Wheel Separator in one of his Tik Tok Videos.
As a commercial vehicle technician, Jack regularly encounters exactly the sort of seized wheels this tool was designed to tackle. His video shows just how straightforward removing stubborn dual wheels can be when you are using the correct equipment instead of relying on brute force.
Real world demonstrations like this highlight why specialist tools often save far more than they cost - in both workshop time and avoiding damage to expensive components.
