Ken-Tool 34645 Mt and Demount Iron, 37In, 3/4 in STK , black, One Size

The iron is great! Shipping was terrible! Everything regarding the tool can be described simply as the right tool for the job. The length makes changing a cars and truck tires a breeze. As for myself, I chose the (34745) - It’s the shorter of the two versions in this model at (37 inches). I don’t have a need for anything longer. Some people claim you need two irons for dismount but I really don’t see why. Simply place a tire bead clamp, holder or long screwdriver on the initial starting point to prevent the bead from walking back and proceed with 12 inch progression as you pry and the tire will come off in a snap. Often with as few as 4 strokes. Taking off the back bead isn’t much of a chore either when you insert the bar on the backside and begin to pry; use a 4lbs mallet or like me use bead holder and step it off like you did the front side before. Be sure to use a solution of 50/50 dish soap water. This will make your efforts a positive experience. Carry some like you would with the other fluids, (oil, radiator coolant) in the trunk or wherever you keep it. About a liter / quart should do. I mentioned earlier about the packaging. Yes, it’s explicable how anyone could put a 4.5 lb long iron loosely in a rectangular box and secure with only packing-tape. It’s a break out of the box method. Please be sure to add delivery instructions l to your order! Be sure to tell them to (pack it in a secure manner so the tool will not leave the box before it arrives) or you’ll end up with a empty box delivered as it happened to me. (Wedge folding both ends will work much better) otherwise you will be waiting 10 days like me for the replacement. (Trust this advice)

Work perfect

Great tool, was worth the buy instead of cheaping out. Made life easier with the extra leverage.

Exactly what I ordered. I ordered two of them but when the package arrived there was only one of them in it. The package broke open and one fell out. I let Amazon know about it and they sent a replacement out right away. Very happy with the item and dealing with Amazon.

I bought this to help take tractor and trailer tires off hubs. The bar was bent to one side, but it happened to be bent the way I use it so it's not a big deal. Its sturdy enough and has the length needed for a decent amount of leverage.

Theses are top of the line tire bars. I ordered the set with a long and short bar and decided I needed another short bar. I do find it is worth the time to take a flap wheel on your grinder and spent a little Tim polishing the spoons, they slip in and out of the bead much easier. They work just fine if you don't , but I think its worth doing.

good to go

Good quality steel, works like it should

This bar seem’s to be of good quality and work’s fine, even for working on 20.8 x 38 tractor tires.

Exelente herramienta para desmontar llantas muevetierra

These are simply the best tool you can buy for mounting and demounting any size of tire. If you are unfamiliar with tire repair, please note that you will need two of these. One iron by itself is more or less useless. Two works fairly well, but I would recommend adding a Ken-Tool tire spoon to make life even less complicated. Yes, they are expensive for just an iron bar, but they are totally worth it. We’ve used them for everything from little 14” car wheels, to 42” agricultural tires. Strongly recommend.

Works as it should

Bought 2 Irons, and the spoon. Changed My truck tires. Hard parts breaking the bead.
