Wheel Rim Popper

Do you have a collection of old, used tires that you need to recycle? A wheel popper is a tire removal machine that works to remove scrap tire material from steel and alloy rims. Using this recycling equipment can save you money by reducing labor costs and saving you time in the process.

What makes the wheel popper especially desirable? This fast and efficient tire-recycling machine separates tires from steel and alloy rims in a 34-second cycle, which will be crucial for you in managing your day-to-day productivity.

While other tire removal and recycling machines can be strenuous or taxing to use, the wheel popper is easy on your back and may reduce the risk of injury. One machine handles steel, alloy, light commercial and 4×4 wheels from 10″ to 24″. When all is said and done, the wheel popper works quickly and provides a fast return on investment.

A Fast Return on Your Investment

Removing a tire from a wheel by hand takes a few minutes. The wheel popper does it in a 34-second cycle. The separated steel, alloy and rubber are worth more than a whole wheel, so the machine pays for itself quickly. The design reduces bending & stretching, which in turn reduces operator fatigue & risk of injury

Wheel Popper FAQs

Can I use single-phase power with an electric wheel popper?

Our electric wheel poppers offer only three-phase motors. If your facility has just single-phase power available, our gas powered wheel poppers may be the best option for your needs or we offer invertor or phase converter.  Contact our  sales team at Solid Equipment Company for a quote.

Does a wheel popper work with alloy wheels?

Yes, it works with both steel and aluminum alloy wheels. Alloy wheels are more brittle, however, so the wheel may have to be repositioned once or more to successfully separate the tire from the wheel.

Is it ok to use this machine outside?

No, it is best to use under cover and protected from wet weather.
