Mayak tire levers for enduro motorcycles
What are the MayakLab tire levers made of? Why are they so lightweight, and won’t they break easily?
Our tire levers are made of 7075T6 aluminum alloy, which has a very high strength-to-weight ratio.
The 7075-T6 alloy includes, in addition to aluminum, 5.6% zinc, 2.4% magnesium, 0.15% manganese, 1.6% copper and 0.23% chromium, as well as small amounts of titanium, silicon, iron and other elements. This alloy has a tensile strength of 83,000 psi (pounds per inch) or 572.264 MPa. The 7075-T6 alloy is as strong as medium strength steels with a tensile strength of over 520 MPa, but it is three times lighter.

In this article, we would like to explain why our set includes one tire lever with a no-pinch tip and one without it. And why it is not worth ordering both tire levers with a no-pinch tip.
