Neilsen Tyre Lever 36" CT3560

In the UK, Neilsen Tyre levers at this 36" length only seem to appear on Ebay. I bought a pair at £12 to add to my home tyre replacement equipment. Almost certainly a chinese sourced, proprietary item, probably available under a host of brand names.

Identified as heavy duty, suitable for Truck and HGV by some sellers, I would suggest this is to say the least, optimistic though for my large 4x4,using these for tyre replacement (235 70 R16)in the intended function they are fit for purpose.

The bar is forged but at just 25mm wide and about 10 thick, section strength at that length will clearly be an issue. Could be a reason why this length doesn't appear to be distributed widely.

At £12 for two delivered, I have no complaints in appropriate use for my tyre sizes.

In my opinion they are not to commercial strength for HGV however and certainly should not be considered for any other high physic levering jobs. If you are a trucker, I would look elsewhere for a pedigree commercial model with greater strength.

A minor issue is the ground tapered ends. Rounding the sharp edges off would have helped protect rims so this needs to be considered as a finishing touch by the user.

4 stars is based on my situation. For HGV I'm sure it would have been different.
