Portable Bead Breaker TIRES/WHEELS Handling 20-6-31 This portable bead breaker uses hydraulic jack pressure to press the tire off the bead lip.
"It easily handles even the toughest tires," says inventor Bob Sagen, noting that it'll work on anything from car to tractor tires.
The "Bead Jacker" has a pair of jaws that go between the tire and rim, and a lock-down handle equipped with a plunger. Pushing the handle back forces the plunger against the rim which in turn forces the jaws under the rim. Once the handle is pushed all the way down it overcenters to lock the plunger in place so it can't come off.
"The jack is at a right angle to the work area so the tire is pushed exactly straight down with the jack," says Sagen. "The plunger is equipped with an adjustable bolt for adapting the unit to different size wheels."
Comes with an 8-in., 2-ton hydraulic jack. Sells for $159.95.
