New bead seating tool for tubeless tires

Ken-Tool has released the Mega AirBlast, a bead seating tool designed to properly seat the bead of tubeless tires to the rim.

The Mega AirBlast has an operating maximum pressure of 165 psi (11 bar) and uses pressurized air to uniformly force the tire’s bead onto the rim before inflating the tire to the correct pressure,

It includes a portable 5-gal. air reservoir tank and a heavy-duty, 2-in. diameter tube with a ball valve to carry the air to the insertion point. An air pressure gauge and safety release valve are included for operator convenience and safety.

The company recommends using the Ken-Tool tire inflation cage with the Mega AirBlast for safety purposes.
