For Passenger Cars, Motorcycles, & ATVs

The Ranger Vortex RB6L Portable Tire Bead Seater is designed for passenger car, motorcycle and ATV tire service. The 6L tank and 8.4 lbs. weight make the RB6L the smallest, lightest bead seater in the Vortex lineup. Give stubborn tire beads a burst of air at the push of a button. The Ranger Vortex RB6L portable tire bead seater pairs a 6L (1.6-gallon) tank with rapid air release for passenger car, motorcycle and ATV tire service. Compact aluminum construction makes it the lightest Vortex model to carry, position and store.

Compact and Easy to Handle

• Compact 6L Tank - A 1.6-gallon tank for passenger car, motorcycle and ATV tire service, in the smallest Vortex model.
• Push-Button Air Release - Release a concentrated burst of air to help seat stubborn tubeless tire beads.
• 1.75" High-Flow Valve - The RB6L shares the exhaust valve size specified for the 10L and 12L Vortex models.
• Lightest in the Lineup - At 8.4 lbs. and 21" long, the RB6L is easy to carry to the wheel and put away after the job.
• Two-Handed Grip - Front and rear handles provide two grip points. A rim brace helps position the tapered nozzle at the bead gap.
• Tank Pressure in View - An onboard gauge displays tank pressure, with a quick-connect coupler, inlet valve and pressure relief valve included.

A Compact Tire Bead Seater for Stubborn Beads
A tire that will not take air can hold up the whole job. The Ranger Vortex RB6L directs a concentrated burst of compressed air between a tubeless tire bead and wheel to help establish the seal needed for inflation. Designed for passenger car, motorcycle and ATV tire service, this 6L portable tire bead seater gives you the smallest Vortex model for the work at hand.

Push-Button Release. A Concentrated Burst of Air.
The RB6L pairs a push-button release with a 1.75" (44 mm) high-flow exhaust valve. Pressing the switch releases the stored air through a tapered nozzle aimed at the bead gap. The exhaust valve matches the size specified for the larger RB10L and RB12L models, and a protective cover sits over the release switch.

Easy to Carry from Storage to the Wheel
At 8.4 lbs. and 21" long, the RB6L is the lightest and shortest bead seater in the Vortex lineup. Its aluminum-alloy tank holds 1.6 gallons while keeping the overall size manageable around the service bay. Front and rear handles provide a two-handed grip, and the nozzle brace rests against the wheel rim to help position the tapered outlet.

Shop-Air Connection and an Onboard Pressure Gauge
Connect the RB6L to your compressed-air supply through its quick-connect coupler and inlet valve, then monitor the onboard gauge as the tank fills. The air system also includes an integrated pressure relief valve. The RB6L handles bead seating; a separate tire inflation hose completes inflation as needed to the tire manufacturer's recommended pressure. Follow the Vortex user guide for setup and use.

Portable Tire Bead Seaters That Get You Back to Work
Get back to the job with Ranger Vortex portable tire bead seaters. Trigger-operated rapid air release delivers a concentrated burst of compressed air into the gap between the tire and wheel, helping establish the seal needed for inflation. Choose the 6L RB6L for passenger car, motorcycle and ATV tires, the 10L RB10L for SUV and light pickup tires, or the 12L RB12L for full-size and heavy-duty pickup tires. Every Vortex combines an aluminum-alloy tank, a high-flow exhaust valve and an onboard pressure gauge to bring portable bead-seating capability to your tire-service bay.

Stubborn Tire Beads. Meet Ranger Vortex.
An unseated tire bead can stop a tire job in its tracks. Ranger Vortex portable tire bead seaters deliver a concentrated burst of compressed air between the tire bead and tire wheel to help establish the seal. Push-button rapid air release puts that burst at your fingertips, while an aluminum alloy tank keeps each model easy to carry to the wheel. Available in three sizes, Vortex gives you the capacity to match the work in front of you. The compact RB6L handles tires up to 17 inches, the RB10L steps up for tires up to 20 inches, and the larger RB12L tackles tires up to 24 inches. From motorcycles and ATVs to sedans, SUVs and heavy duty pickups, there's a Vortex Portable Bead Seater ready to get things seated.

Ready When The Bead Fights Back
Changing a tire is straightforward right up until a stubborn bead decides otherwise. Vortex gives tire technicians a purpose-built tool for that exact moment. Charge the tank, position the nozzle, and unleash a rapid shot of compressed air to help get the bead against the rim and the job moving again. Compact aluminum construction, straightforward controls and multiple configurations make the Vortex Portable Bead Seater an easy addition to a tire shop, service bay or mobile tire setup.

Push-Button Control
There's no need to wrestle with a complicated release mechanism when you're already positioning a tire, wheel and bead seater. Vortex uses a push-button trigger mechanism for quick air release while front and rear handles give the operator secure points for positioning and control. The integrated pressure gauge keeps tank pressure visible while you work, and a pressure release valve provides another key part of the system's pressure management.

Aluminum Tank Without The Bulk
Portable equipment needs to stay portable. Each Vortex bead seater uses an aluminum-alloy air tank, keeping weight down while providing the compressed-air storage needed for a hard, fast discharge. Lightweight aluminum construction keeps every Vortex bead seater easy to handle without sacrificing the air capacity needed to get the job done. The portable design makes it simple to carry around the shop, move between service bays or bring directly to the tire instead of restling with bulky equipment.
