Overview
The Hunter RFE30BLK Road Force Elite is a diagnostic wheel balancer that performs both traditional balancing and Road Force Measurement faster than conventional balancers. Equipped with a diagnostic load roller that applies up to 1,250 lbs of force, it simulates real-world road conditions to detect vibration issues that standard balancers cannot identify. The patented vision system uses structured light cameras to automatically measure wheel dimensions, while SmartWeight technology optimizes weight placement to use 30% less weight. The RFE30BLK includes SpeedClamp and Wheel Lift systems for efficient wheel mounting and can handle passenger and light truck tires up to 175 lbs and 44 inches in diameter, making it the industry standard for shops committed to eliminating wheel-related vibration.

Key Features
Road Force Measurement
Diagnostic load roller applies up to 1,250 lbs of force to measure radial and lateral forces, identifying tire stiffness variations, belt separations, and match-mounting opportunities that eliminate vibration
Patented Vision System
Structured light laser cameras automatically scan wheel dimensions during spin with no moving parts for ultimate reliability, eliminating manual entry errors and saving time on every balance
SmartWeight Technology
Intelligent weight optimization identifies placement anywhere along the wheel, uses 30% less weight per balance, and provides more single-weight solutions for cleaner appearance and improved accuracy
Automatic CenteringCheck
Patented system continuously monitors wheel centering to eliminate setup errors, the number one cause of improper balancing and costly customer comebacks
SpeedClamp System
Quick-release pneumatic clamping system secures wheels rapidly and consistently, reducing mounting time and operator fatigue while ensuring proper centering every time
Integrated Wheel Lift
Pneumatic lift system raises heavy wheel assemblies onto the balancer shaft with minimal effort, improving ergonomics and efficiency when servicing larger passenger and light truck wheels
