Bus tyre tools require significantly higher torque capabilities than standard automotive tools. Bus lug nuts are typically tightened to torque specifications between 450-650 Nm, sometimes higher, compared to 100-150 Nm for passenger vehicles.

Our Milwaukee M18 high-torque impact wrenches deliver over 2000Nm of nut-busting torque, essential for breaking free seized lug nuts on commercial vehicles. Additionally, bus tyre tools need longer anvils to reach deep wheel wells and more durable impact sockets designed specifically for heavy-duty applications.

Yes, our Milwaukee M18 FUEL high-torque impact wrenches deliver cordless power that matches or exceeds pneumatic tools, with up to 2,400 Nm of nut-busting torque. These tools easily handle the demands of bus tyre service without being tethered to air compressors.

The M18 platform provides the mobility service crews need when working on large bus fleets or roadside service calls. Our cordless solutions feature extended-runtime batteries that can handle multiple vehicles before requiring a charge, making them ideal for busy service environments.

Proper torque on bus wheel lug nuts is critical for safety and requires calibrated torque wrenches specifically designed for heavy vehicles. We offer Norbar precision torque wrenches capable of the higher torque ranges needed for bus applications (typically 450-650 Nm).

We recommend using an impact wrench to remove and initially install lug nuts, then finishing with a calibrated torque wrench following a star pattern sequence. For fleets requiring documentation, we provide SINGLAS-accredited calibration services for torque tools, ensuring you meet safety regulations and maintenance standards.

A complete bus tyre service toolkit should include:

1. High-torque impact wrench (1" drive for larger buses)
2. Heavy-duty impact sockets in appropriate sizes for your fleet
3. Calibrated torque wrench rated for bus applications
4. Hydraulic jack with appropriate capacity for your vehicles
5. Tyre bead tools for mounting/demounting
6. Valve stem tools for core replacement
7. Inflation equipment with accurate pressure gauges

We can help you assemble a customized toolkit based on your specific bus models and service requirements.

Absolutely. We offer an on-site testing program specifically designed for bus maintenance operations. Our specialists will bring selected high-torque tools to your facility to demonstrate their performance on your actual vehicles.

This allows your service crew to experience firsthand how our tools handle your specific challenges, whether it's breaking free seized lug nuts, working with wheel rim assemblies, or servicing tyre bead seats. This program ensures you invest in the right tools for your operation's unique requirements before making a purchasing decision.
