 BEADBUSTER APPLICATION GUIDE 
 BeadBuster XB-450i Compatible Wheels 
 The BeadBuster XB-450i is a 2024 updated design of our prior small frame bead breakers (the XB-450, 451, 452 & 454-PRO). The new design updates include: 
 
 These improvements address weld and thread stripping failures that some customers experienced with the legacy design. The removable clamp arm can be swapped with other accessory clamp arms for specialty applications. 
 With the home mechanic and trail rider in mind, the XB-450i was specifically designed for difficult-to-remove ATV tires, but we soon realized that it worked just as well on just about every kind of tire there is. A good rule of thumb is that the XB-450i will work on any wheel that you can pick up by yourself.  No adjustment is needed for different tire/wheel sizes. The portable bead breaker is small and perfect for stashing in your glove box or tool box. Save time, money, and frustration by quickly and easily changing your own tires whenever, and wherever you want. 
 BEADBUSTER vs. THE REST 
 The BeadBuster XB-450i is the Premium Small Tire Bead Breaker...There is no Question  
 BeadBuster is the only USA based bead breaker brand that makes our products in the USA.  The other bead breakers of this size are all basically the same copied design, and come from China. 
 THE MAIN ADVANTAGES TO THE BEADBUSTER DESIGN ARE: 
 
 HOW IT WORKS 
 
 XB-450i ACCESSORIES FOR SPECIAL CASES 
                                                       
 The XB-450i comes with a Standard Clamp Arm, which is removable.  It will work on a vast majority of wheels.  If you have 7"-8" ATV wheels (usually on 3-wheelers and Mini Quads, you will need the accessory Spacer (BB1-SPCR) that prevents the feet from extending too far underneath these smaller rim lips. 
                                                       
 Some passenger vehicle wheels have a highly curved or angled surface that the clamp arm makes contact with, and the standard clamp arm does not work well with these "Contoured Rims".  For these types of wheels, you need the accessory Extended Clamp Arm (BB1X-CAE), which reaches down further into the rim and makes contact where it is flatter.  This accessory is available for purchase separately.
