Anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a durable, corrosion-resistant oxide layer on the aluminium surface, often used to apply color.
Troubleshooting
Tyre lever does not grip the tire bead.
Ensure the correct technique is being used, applying leverage at different points around the rim. For very tight tires, a second lever might be needed.
Wrench feels loose on the axle nut.
Confirm that this is the 22mm version and that your motorcycle's axle nut is indeed 22mm. Ensure the tool is fully seated on the nut.
Tool shows signs of corrosion.
Clean the affected area with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth. Dry thoroughly and consider applying a light coat of lubricant to prevent further corrosion.
Difficulty removing wheel due to stuck axle.
Ensure the axle nut is fully loosened. Apply penetrating oil if necessary and allow it to soak before attempting removal again. Use firm, steady pressure.
