NEW BeadBuster XB-550i HD: HEAVY DUTY TIRE BEAD BREAKER, Made in USA For Sale

This is a Brand NEW in Box, direct from Manufacturer,BeadBuster XB-550i HD(HEAVY DUTY) Tire Bead Breaker.The BeadBuster XB-550i HD is a 2024 updated design of our prior large frame bead breakers (the XB-550 HD and XB-554 PRO). The new design updates include Premium Investment Cast construction from hardened 4140 Chrome-Moly Steel, custom Grade-8 Bolts with crowned tips, and double female ram thread length (1.5″). These improvements address weld and thread stripping failures that some customers experienced with the legacy design.The XB-550i bead breaker is the big brother of the XB-450i. The operating principle is the same, but the XB-550i is bigger in every way. Heavier steel, thicker walls, more extension; the XB-550i is designed to handle the BIG tires that you’ll find on agricultural and industrial OTR wheels, large trucks, military vehicles, etc. However, we created a patented configurable ram foot that can accommodate a large range of rim lip sizes, and it will still work on ATV/UTV*. There are 4 different foot length configurations, so that you can get the feet as close to the Bead Seat as possible without touching the Bead Retainer, but still get good purchase on top of the Bead Bundle. It’s still far more portable than any other OTR bead breaker, and much less expensive. If you are a farmer, business owner, or a large vehicle enthusiast; you can use this pneumatic tire bead breaker to easily change your own tires whenever, and wherever you want.For use on:

• Farm Tractors
• Lawn Mowers, Garden Tractors
• Agricultural & Industrial Tires
• Heavy OTR (Off The Road) Tires
• Skid Loaders
• ATV’s, UTV’s (aka. Side x Side’s)
• Military Vehicles
• Passenger vehicles
• Trucks, 4×4’s, Jeeps
• Rock Crawlers, Mud Boggers
• Heavy, Highly Modified Trucks (Monster Trucks)
• Semi Tractor Trailers
• Light Trailers

It does not require floor mounting and can be operated with hand tools, it is small and light enough to take on the trail or field for emergency tire changes. The BeadBuster applies a reaction force directly against the lip of the rim and won’t bend lightweight aluminum rims from high compressive forces.It has a padded clamp and will NOT SCRATCH your rims.The BeadBuster is ruggedly designed, built from a single-piece investment casting, from hardened 4140 chrome-moly steel, uses custom Grade-8 zinc-plated screws, and is proudly MADE IN USA!
The XB-550i HD is a much better valueAlternative to a Hydraulic Bead Breakerwhich can cost well over $1,000, require a hydraulic pump and are difficult to access tight spots on the wheel. Other large bead breakers require hammering the tool to get the feet in the bead, but not the XB-550i HD! Its patented design uses leverage of the clamp arm, and is very easy to use. The BeadBuster is a tried and true design that does the job right.

* NOTES*:

1. A 15/16″ wrench is required to drive the clamp and ram bolts. Hand wrenches will work, power tools are recommended. You can use an impact wrench, but use caution with a 1/2″ pneumatic impact to not over-torque the bolts. A 3/8″ or 1/2″ cordless impact wrench is ideal.
2. Tire Irons are required to finish the job of removing the tire from the rim. Very large tires (>48″ dia.) may require even larger tire irons.
3. The XB-550i will NOT work on 7″-8″ ATV wheels. It will work on 9″ or larger ATV wheels
4. Certain cast aluminum and alloy passenger vehicle rims have a profile that prevents the tool from clamping properly. See the specifications above; if in doubt, measure your rims and compare to the tool’s spec. limits.
