Dude, thank you! I had been working at some small trailer tires this morning and couldn't break the back beads. Saw that tool, and realized i had an old tool like that in my shed that i never thought i would use. It worked great!

I have never seen a hammer like that I have a video where I used a bumper jack to break the bead Now I have the harbor freight tire machine It is worth having and there are mods to make one better

They work pretty well if you know how to use them, and anybody can learn! I've broken down many a tire with a jack as well and a few stubborn ones with both the hammer and the jack! Thanks for the sub and comment, I'll have to go check out your channel!!

So , So much easier when good tire lubricant is used . Murphy’s tire soap is best . Ken Tool makes a short hammer with a rubber puck on one end and a duck bill on the other .

I totally agree, but generally if it comes off easy, I try not to make the mess. Thanks for the info and the comment!

yeah that's the best way to fuck up your rim. try lubing it first and then hitting the back of that bead breaker tool with a sledgehammer . the way the tool was meant to be used . its not a hammer its ment to be hit by a hammer

@assemblyrequired1 Жыл бұрын

Like I said, I wouldn't do that with a brand new aluminum wheel, but for farm implements its pretty effective, and you have to hit it where you aim. To be honest I've never even heard of using one the way you described, so I looked it up and sure enough that's what Ken Tool says on their website. These are apparently now called "Bead Breaking Wedges". My gut tells me though, that that is an Insurance/liability thing, definitely still looks like a hammer to me. I don't understand why you would make a wedge with a hardened face that they also tell you to use a soft face hammer on, and then make the thing weigh 11 lbs so that it absorbs all of the inertia from the hammer that you hit it with. I may try it next time I break down a tire, but I have my doubts about how well it will work. Thanks for the comment though!

Great video....just like I have done it since I was 17 when I got my 1st car.....still do it now age 71. Made up an easier bead breaker though.....I used to use a flat bar.....around 2 inch wide with a 90deg bend at one end.....ground to a tapper to slide down between tyre and rim.....You belt the flat bar with a 4lb hammer on the bend forcing it into the bead....and keep working it around. I I say got a better method now. I still buy used tyres....and I know how to examine a tyre. Just wish I could find a good way to balance car wheels.....the Harbour Freight Bubble type balancer are just not made accurate these days to be of any use....dont waste your money....they will drive you nuts. Nick in the UK,

Lube and at least 3 to 4 foot long swan head tire irons and use 2 of them...life will be easier and it's cheap:)

I've used those before with good luck. Some day I'll upgrade, but for now these work pretty well. And yes, lube can make all the difference in the world sometimes! Thanks!

lmfao dude you're using that tool wrong. never swing at a rim like that holy cow

@assemblyrequired1 Жыл бұрын

Like I said, I've never even heard of using them as just a wedge until I posted this video, and I've been around several old timers in the tire business. Learned something there. But I'll probably keep using mine incorrectly and you'll keep being right by hitting yours with another hammer. Thanks for watching and the comment!
