Maxi Grip - HM11 - Mounting Tool

Mounting carbide studs for vehicles They are easily mounted and dismounted with the supplied special sleeve. The sleeve is supplied with a basic setting that allows the stud to protrude 3 mm. How far the stud protrudes may vary depending on the rubber resistance, a readjustment may be necessary. However, the mounting technique can be learned quickly. To remove the HM stud, the stop of the special sleeve is adjusted backwards. Even heavily worn studs can be removed. Basic rule Make sure that the stud you use is a maximum of 1 mm longer than the lug depth of the tire. This means that for an 18 mm stud, the height of the rubber lugs must be at least 17 mm. The thickness of the tire cord varies between 4 and 20 mm, depending on the tire type. Count the lugs on the tire and develop a mounting strategy to achieve the optimal result. If you are unsure - choose a shorter model.
