Bead breakers save time, boost safety

The 700 bar EBB 400 (45 kN) bead breakers are designed for vehicles and implements used in the construction, civil engineering, heavy industrial, oil and gas, mining and energy, primary industry, quarrying and transport industries.

In addition to saving time in routine workshop maintenance and on-site repair operations, Enerpac says the bead breakers protect staff and machinery by dispensing with heavy, clumsy, labour-intensive equipment and replacing it with precisely applied high force from easily handled tools.

Weighing 13kg, the EBB 400 Combi Bead Breaker handles two and three-piece, 2-5-10 hole budd, 7.50X16s and all tubeless truck and farm tyres and rims. Simple to operate without screws, bolts or attachments, the breaker assembly clamps hydraulically to all rims in seconds and breaks beads precisely with up to 45kN (five tonnes) of force. Uses of the EBB 400 include tractors, trucks, graders and implement tyres.

The bead breakers are compatible with some of Enerpac?s most commonly used Enerpac pumps throughout Australia and New Zealand, including air/hydraulic pumps, electric/hydraulic pumps, as well as Enerpac foot pumps, POW?R-RISER portable lifting jack (54 to 181 tonnes) and the latest multipurpose Ultima hand pump.

Enerpac bead breakers are part of Enerpac?s advanced ?range of safety-oriented, energy saving and labour-saving technologies, including lifting, pumping, fastening, bolting and maintenance tools.
