Vintage tire repair clamps

[TheBigTool]

I have these 2 old clamps I picked up at garage sales. Can anybody tell me if they are worth anything?

1 - Dillectric 6690
2 - SHALER 5 Minute Vulcanizer

The vulcanizer is a common item, though most people have no idea what it is for.
The Dillectric is not one I recognize.

If it has Shaler cast into it , I sometimes get $7-8 dollars for anice one , I have several with no name that I would be glad to see $5 for. Your Dillectric is not common, might bring $15 from a collector of service station items.

Dillectric came with the Dillectric electric heated repair patch set-up.


I have had several of these kinds of  tools and they are a hard sell, not cute enough for the man-cave guys,   and not too useful for the garage guys.

I actually got more for the wooden box one came in ,than I did for the tool itself.

Thanks for the info. Shaler is cast into the other side. Maybe I'll list them in the 'for sale' section. These don't fill me with the desire to keep them, although the Dillectric is a pretty interesting piece.

I have a few would see them in the free or  at most the 50 cent  pile at a swap meets. Don't think they bring much on ebay, but who knows????

Here's a pic of the whole Dillectric set up

the stand plugs in, heats the special rubber patches and then you squeeze them on with the clamp.

Or it works some other way, I'm just guessing

that is a neat set up! tire patch kit tins bring 5$ to a couple of hundred bucks! I used to walk Hershey that is what I've seen them go for
