Commercial Accuracy Without Commercial Complexity

The APEX AB28 is engineered for shops and serious garages that demand accurate, vibration-free balance results but do not need overly complicated systems or inflated pricing. It delivers dependable performance for daily balancing work while keeping operation straightforward, fast, and efficient.

Designed to support passenger vehicles, light trucks, and modern performance wheels, the AB28 is a practical solution for one to three bay shops, growing service operations, and side-hustle businesses that want professional results without unnecessary overhead.

Precision Digital Measurement You Can Trust

At the heart of the AB28 is advanced digital sensor technology engineered to deliver repeatable, accurate balance readings down to hundredths of an ounce. A direct-axis drive system ensures smooth, vibration-free rotation, allowing the machine to measure imbalance forces accurately without distortion or noise.

Fast cycle times keep vehicles moving through the shop efficiently, while clear visual guidance helps technicians place weights correctly the first time, reducing rework and improving customer satisfaction.

Multi-Directional Load Sensing for Modern Wheels

The AB28 uses high-precision quartz piezoelectric load sensors that measure imbalance forces in multiple directions simultaneously. By detecting longitudinal, transverse, and shear forces at once, the system delivers consistent accuracy across a wide range of wheel and tire combinations.

This multi-axis sensing capability is especially important when balancing modern alloy, low-profile, and performance wheels where precision matters and small inaccuracies can translate into noticeable vibration.

Designed for Speed and Ease of Use

Every aspect of the AB28 is designed to improve daily workflow. The intuitive graphic interface guides technicians through wheel data entry and balancing procedures quickly and clearly. Bright LED indicators assist with exact weight placement, simplifying clip-on, tape, split, and behind-the-spoke applications.

Automatic braking holds the wheel precisely at the correct position for weight placement, reducing guesswork and speeding up the balancing process.

Wheel Protection Built In

The AB28 includes a no-mar Quick-Nut system and a comprehensive cone package to secure wheels quickly while helping protect expensive finishes. Rubber-lined components and precision-machined mounting surfaces reduce the risk of cosmetic damage during setup and removal.

This built-in protection makes the AB28 well suited for shops that regularly service custom, performance, and OE alloy wheels.

Built for Daily Use and Long-Term Reliability

Heavy-duty construction, precision-machined components, and a rigid balancer shaft ensure stable operation and long service life. Low operating speeds reduce stress on components while maintaining fast balance cycles.

Backed by BendPak’s U.S.-based technical support and industry-leading warranty and support structure, the AB28 provides long-term confidence for shops investing in dependable balancing equipment.

A Smart Performance and Value Solution

The APEX AB28 delivers the accuracy, speed, and reliability shops need in a streamlined, value-focused package. It is the right choice for businesses that want professional-grade balance results without overpaying for features that do not improve real-world performance.
