Tire Service Equipment Cheetah Bead Seater CH-5 — 5-Gallon ASME-Certified Tank, Commercial Bead Seating

The TSI Cheetah Bead Seater CH-5 is a commercial-grade, 5-gallon compressed-air tank designed to safely, quickly, and reliably seat stubborn tire beads from ATVs up to 24.5" truck tires.

Built for professional shops and heavy-duty users, the CH-5 simplifies the often difficult task of seating tire beads by delivering a controlled blast of air from an ASME-certified steel tank. Compact yet powerful, it replaces risky manual techniques and speeds up service without needing complex setup or accessories. The unit arrives ready to connect to a shop air line and is engineered to withstand repeated commercial use.

How does the CH-5 make seating tough beads easier?

The CH-5 stores compressed air in a 5-gallon ASME-certified steel tank and releases it in a single, forceful charge that forces beads onto the rim quickly. This concentrated airflow eliminates the trial-and-error of manual inflations and reduces the number of repeat attempts.

• 5-gallon ASME-certified steel tank for reliable pressure delivery
• Single-charge operation minimizes setup time
• Works with tires from ATVs through 24.5" truck tires
• Compact footprint fits shop benches or service carts

What safety and durability features should I expect?

The CH-5 is constructed from steel and designed for commercial environments, with ASME certification ensuring safe pressure containment. Its simple controls reduce operator error, and the sturdy package handles routine shop use and transportation.

• ASME-certified tank for code-compliant pressure handling
• Steel construction resists wear in busy shops
• Minimal moving parts lower maintenance needs

How does the tool fit into a busy tire shop workflow?

By delivering a fast, reliable bead seating blast, the CH-5 cuts time per tire and reduces repeated inflation attempts. Technicians can keep the unit on a cart or bench and cycle tires through mounting, soap-and-seat, then final inflation more efficiently.

• Quick single-charge seating reduces service time
• Compact dimensions (45.212 cm x 34.798 cm x 35.56 cm) for easy storage
• Light enough (package weight ~29.95 lb) to reposition when needed

What tires and scenarios is the CH-5 suitable for?

The CH-5 is intended for tough bead-seating jobs across a wide tire range — from small ATVs to large truck tires up to 24.5" diameter. It is best used when beads are stubborn after mounting or when quick seating is required in a high-volume environment.

• Compatible with ATV, passenger, light-truck, and big truck tires up to 24.5"
• Ideal for professional shops, fleet maintenance, and mobile service vans
• Recommended where speed and repeated use are needed

Who is this for? The TSI Cheetah CH-5 is aimed at professional tire shops, fleet service operators, and experienced mobile technicians who need a dependable, fast method to seat difficult beads safely. If you mount tires regularly and require a compact, ASME-certified device to streamline bead seating on a range of tire sizes, the CH-5 is built to meet that need.
