Ultra Dent Tools Newarc Wheel Straightening Machine

Steve from Ultra Dent Tools demonstrates how easy it is to straighten a bent wheel using the patented Newarc wheel straightening machine.

[@Jodyrides]

Wayne Kelly of Kelly’s wheel exchange in Pittsburgh PA used one of these back in the 80s to straighten wheels for the BMW club of America ..Wayne was heating a magnesium wheel with a torch, but he wasn’t making it as hot as he usually did on aluminum wheels. I asked him why he wasn’t heating the magnesium wheel up.Wayne said as he pointed to the river outside his shop window, If you catch a magnesium wheel on fire, all the water in that river won’t put the fire out...

[@DIMTips]

Great tool. I was going to do this myself

[@UncleRobsGarage]

Thanks great video. Exactly the way I was going to make one.

Ur momma.......

[@jamesdoerr4318]

Thanks

There is a fault in your machine. When you press a dent it pulls the whole body in the same direction. To solve this issue you could have to place a jack or some adjustable bar in the opposite direction from the center bar to the inner side of the rim.

[@wheelsone6180]

They offer a main shaft support attachment that does just that. Their flaw is it’s on the ground & you have to mount the wheel, then flip the wheel & then sit on a stool & kill your back. That’s just a couple of the flaws. May work well etc but it really isn’t user friendly in the least.

[@tm2pusatpressmadiun577]

Good skill

[@ShowCat1]

would you have had better luck if you reheated it every few minutes? The initial heat would have dissipate quickly.

[@colebriden2193]

I work at alloy wheel repair and use same unit to straighten wheels. But yes we use way more heat then that. Every push we do extra heat

[@mauriciosoto1945]

Good

[@sherwantalib1421]

Where can I buy this

[@audreyfk5267]

this machine can it be set on a work bench so it won't affect your back so much?

[@peanuthead5730]

Where can I get this tool

[@imtiazzaidi149]

Where can i buy this..? for pk

[@tortegracija4160]

toy for younger sister!

[@CHIBA280CRV]

Still look bent !

[@briancolvin6554]

At that price no wonder I have never heard of it. Very cool but that is a lot of money for a machine with a couple of hydraulic rams and a central wheel mount.

[@victorgomez6810]

How much cost and what is the Number

[@googlemall3323]

That outter lip tho...need a gadget for that part I think it's more common than bending the inner lip?🤷🏽‍♂️

[@ameehasa5504]

How much the price I live in NewYork states buffalo

[@TheModfatherIncOfficial]

6700$ US, you could build it for $500 probably. I cant get over how terribly overpriced this "machine" is, its a frame that holds a wheel and a few porto-powers

[@renerodriguez4913]

TheModfatherInc do you have plans for this built

[@jeffreypajela1724]

How much for one of these machines?

[@markjohnston7967]

7100$, one of the most expensive basic machines out there.

[@jblack5323]

Fuck it, I will stick to my heat and hammer.

[@miguelangelsimonfernandez5498]

@@markjohnston7967 way too much money for a couple of hydraulic cylinders, some wheelbearings and an acme thread and wheel cones

[@mikeloewen8495]

how much for straighter

[@TheModfatherIncOfficial]

6700$ us LMAO

[@schonique]

I wish I could find someone who will work on Chrome Wheels 18.8 inch. These wheels are no longer on the Market.

[@blackprince4074]

Oh! using a metal hammer ouch!

[@davidd4677]

Black Prince it's a lead hammer so the wheel will dent the hammer before the hammer damages the wheel. Wire wheels that are most often found on custom cars/lowriders these days that have the knock off spinners use lead hammers to avoid damaging the metal when tightening the wheel to the hub.

[@thebigdille]

@@davidd4677 What about the paint coating???

[@davidd4677]

Phil Feldman As far as paint would go, I wouldn't hammer on a new wheel but if it's already damaged then it's not going to make much of a difference since it'll have to be repainted. Powder coating would hold up much better but even that's going to have it's limits. Again, on a damaged wheel it wouldn't be a big deal but on a new wheel, probably no bueno.

[@jeffries848]

Phil Feldman Also keep in mind that most bends are on the back of the wheel so even if you do damage the finish you won’t be able to see it once mounted.

[@Warmsunset26]

surely a rubber or nylon mallet is better to striking the metal. As metal on metal will permanently mark the metal.

[@miguelangelsimonfernandez5498]

400ºF or 400ºC?

7000.00 you can buy better chinese machine for under 2500 lest work to

[@polafaruq5980]

[@Szewczmi]

Who ever designed this machine isn’t all that smart. Guy is missing the key thing which is a brace for the counter support. With out a good brace, this thing is a good machine to fuck up your wheels beyond repair. Good luck.

[@wheelsone6180]

They offer a main-shaft support, who knows why no one uses it. On minor bends it may not be needed, who knows. lol

[@williamwhitehead8362]

This audio video has no no sound to it so it's a little hard to listen to what you're doing

[@swapnilkangune10]

YOU ARE FIRST TRAINIG TO ME NO IDEA THIS WORK MACHINER PRICE AND ADDRESH SEND TO MAIL ID

[@robertmencl9169]

we have no idea what you are trying to say.

[@DouEditz]

Thanks for the chuckle....that was a tear jerker...this is going into the hall of fame of HORRIBLE ENGRISH

[@riccello]

Pretty crude setup. "Looks good" is not enough. Put a dial indicator on that thing and see how it looks.

[@riccello]

Ah, I spoke too soon. They do put a dial indicator on it. Still, the wheel needs to be supported from the bottom and underneath the lip. Also, the pressure point needs to have roller bearings so the wheel can be rolled around.

[@johnlerigo9703]

Why are you not heating it up under pressure, why isn’t the guy telling you to do that, that wheel will be cold by time you started, what a joke,

[@timothygould3542]

Hitting a rim with a hammer is not the right way. You are illustrating the use of hydraulics to push out a low spot. You should also use hydraulics to pull in a high spot.

[@ACURAAIRLINES]

Дорогой и неудобный, станок.Лучше обычный, когда стоишь а станок к полу прикручен

[@nawerwohl4670]

ok, may be its cheaper than a new Rim. but how much for the funeral you need after this Sh...ame? drive these Rims is Suicide !

[@carmo9693]

Not saying he did a great job, but if he pushed properly and did not over push in my experience, not a rim failed to the extent of any kind of accident. As it is always recommended to replace a rim, it is the cost of replacing all of them due to potholes every season. I did see brand new rims split with a run flat tire installed when you hit something that hard to split a rim it is time to take responsibility on your driving skills. I have seen welded rims re-crack on the welds, always replace a cracked rim.

[@enayatullahbelyad7792]

That take me less than 5 minutes to fix it by hand better than this peace of crap machine

[@GuruDaveSmith]

Do a forged BMW rim in 5min lol. Heat and a Snap on dead blow rubber coated sledge hammer and I couldn’t get mine perfect.
