Wheel balancer threaded shaft

[andyg0141]

Im currently searching for a replacement shaft for my wheel balancer. It is similar to the one attached (have asked for details so may be the one I need) but the original manufacturer no longer makes them....

Can anyone advise anywhere that would make one and approx cost for doing so? Its the part that the wheel and lock nut go on when balancing wheels and spec is below:

Length = 150mm
Thread = 36x3mm
Narrow section diameter = 25mm
Threaded hole in above = M10

Cheers, Andy

I hope that one will fit your machine because it's a good price. Some tyre equipment spares are stupid money. My John Bean balancer was messing about, Snap On wanted £1200 for a board. Fortunately a friend of mine has an electronic business and one of his chaps went through board and got it working.

That's because it has the magic price increasing Snap-on written on it. It'll only be another rebranded name.

In fairness it doesn't have Snap On written anywhere on it, it just happens they bought them out. I got quote on a part for my Corghi tyre machine, wasn't something I needed for it to work. It was just a metal pin and it was £90

This is about as modern as I get for tyre changing machines, not a lot to go wrong.

Those things sometime go for as much money as a proper machine which always amazes me as they need more room and an air supply and are way more hard work
