Manual Tire Bead Breaker Tire Changer Tool Tire Repair Tool with Rubber Pad Bead Breaking Tool Adjustable Hammer Tire Changer for ATV UTV Car Truck Tractor Mower RV Golf Cart Heavy Duty Tires

It needed some good wheelbearing grease on the threads before use. It's very powerful. Easy to use with impact torque gun. The square rubber boot to protect aluminum rims is too soft and fell apart after first use. That rubber boot needs to be better made or an option of acquiring more for aluminum rims. I've used this for autos, pickups, large truck, skidsteers and dumper tires. It's an easy sure fire way to break the bead off the rim. Just need to find an effective material to protect the aluminum rims when the soft rubber cap disintegrates.

works good

This tool is very heavy duty. It is built very well, weighs a lot and works great. It is excellent for outdoor equipment, HD truck and tractors with steel wheels but I would not recommend using it on any car wheel that is aluminum. The tool essentially clamps onto the wheel and then pushes the bead down. It is a two step process. The way the tool clamps to the wheel is where you would have a high risk of scratching or damaging an aluminum wheel. The tool works well on wheels that can accommodate it. 5 stars for quality and value.

This tool could only work on one side of my rim. And was awkward to use

I first tested this bead breaker on my trailer's spare tire. The tire has a persistent slooooow leak along the bead to where if I needed the tire, it would be useless. The instructions were straight forward and simple enough. Following the instructions and using my Rigid cordless impact wrench, it took less than 2 minutes to get one side of the tire's beads completely free. A quick clean of the bead and rim followed up by a bead sealer and a few minutes later it was on to the second side. Knowing how to use the breaker now, the second side took even less time. With three vehicles, each with two sets of tires, a tractor and three trailers, I have (at least) 6 other tires with the same type of slow bead leak. to take them to the tire shop would likely cost $20 - $30 each tire to get them fixed up so, by that calculation, this tool will pay for itself shortly. For someone without as many tires to maintain, though, the value may not be there.

The media could not be loaded. Antstone Manual Tire Bead Breaker Pneumatic Bead Breaking Tool for ATV Tractor Adjustable Tire Bead Removal Tool.I did not understand how this worked from the sellers listing. Before I ordered this I had to find photos of similar looking products in use because the seller did not post any pictures of how this is used. It is a concern that these companies find a product that they copy and sell without any understanding of how it works.This is described as pneumatic, it is not, the pneumatic versions of this cost four or fives times this amount. You can use an penumatic impact driver to turn the screws, or a wrench. I used an electric impact wrench and it worked great.This is heavy and strong and I am confident it will do the job, the powder coat is hit and miss but it is a tool that is going to get beaten up anyway. I have not used this yet as it came after I had to replace the tires on my garden tractor. It cost me $22 per tire to have the shop do it as I could not break the bead without something like this.Thank you for reading my review and looking at my photos of this product. I hope you found it helpful!REVIEW PHILOSOPHY: I only review a product if it is something I am capable of critically evaluating through comparison, testing and use. This means I have experience of using similar items; or that I have equipment or tools that I can test it with; or that I have an upcoming need so I can actually use. I am as selective about getting an item to review as I would be about purchasing that same item, so yes, I expect it to be a good product. My reviews are NOT based on packaging or if it was delivered timely.

First, the description says this is pneumatic. Its not. That said, you will need something like an impact drill or a nice sized rachet wrench.This works really well at breaking the bead on the tires. It didnt do any damage to the rim (aluminum) and was quick. I did use a little bit of soap/water to help slide the foot under the edge of the rim. Once the tool is locked in place on the rim, you lower the foot and just like that the bead is broke. On a few tires, I only had to use it on one spot. On a couple of other tires, I had to rotate it around and do it two or three times before the entire bead was loosened.This thing is small and seems to be nearly indestructible. If you are thinking about changing your own tires or stripping them off the rim for disposal, this tool will definitely help make that job easier.

I am pleased with this bead breaker. I used to lay a wheel on the ground and would lay a 2x6 on the tire like a ramp and drive my truck up the ramp until the bead popped. This worked most times but was not ideal at all. This bead breaker made it easy to pop the bead on a atv tire that has been on my John Deere Gator for 20 years, so I could replace the valve stem. This bead breaker was easy to use and I am happy with the results. 5 STARS
