The Hood-Less WB-953 That Saves the Bay Space and Comes in Lower on Price
The Tuxedo WB-953-B is the WB-953 wheel balancer without the 38-inch hood assembly. Same full-feature keypad interface, same 1-gram accuracy, same Car and Motorcycle balancing modes, same 24-inch rim / 39-inch overall wheel capacity, same 150 lb per-wheel rating. Just no wheel hood, which drops the price about 300 dollars and saves overhead clearance in a tight bay.
The heavy-duty 36 mm balancing shaft handles the widest range of aftermarket wheels, and the Speed-Nut mounting locks wheels down in seconds. Multi-user two-operator mode lets a second tech work with different measurement settings. Self-calibrating and self-diagnosing for real uptime.
Runs on 110V single-phase 15 A. Includes electronic braking, integrated centering spring, 23 articulated weight-storage pockets and side-mounted cone / caliper storage pegs. If shop rules or insurance requires a hood you can add the WB-953-HDASY hood assembly later, or step up to the full WB-953 instead. Backed by Tuxedo one-year parts warranty.
Key Features of the WB-953-B That Matter in a Real Tire and Wheel Bay:
– Full WB-953 Feature Set, No Hood: Same LED keypad, same 1-gram accuracy, same 10-24 in rim range, same 36 mm shaft as the WB-953. Just no wheel hood.
– Saves Real Bay Space and Price: Losing the 38 in hood drops the price about $300 and saves the overhead clearance the hood needs. Good for tight bays and cost-sensitive shops.
– Car and Motorcycle Balancing Modes: Standard with Car and Motorcycle balancing modes. One machine covers the shop’s passenger-car wheels plus incoming motorcycle work.
– 1-Gram Accuracy: 1-gram accuracy across the full 10 to 24 inch rim range.
– Heavy-Duty 36 mm Balancing Shaft: Accommodates the widest range of aftermarket wheels of different sizes and shapes.
– Speed-Nut Mounting: Quick-release mounting locks wheels down in seconds.
– 23 Articulated Weight Pockets: Multi-pocket weight shelf with 23 articulated pockets over 1.5 in deep.
– Hood-Ready if You Need It Later: Add the WB-953-HDASY hood assembly later if shop rules or insurance changes require a hood, or step up to the full WB-953.
