  "term": "Bead breaker",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "A tool designed to separate the bead of a tire from the rim, allowing for tire removal or repair. It applies concentrated force to the tire sidewall near the rim, overcoming the tight seal created by air pressure and the tire's construction. Manual versions use levers or screws, while hydraulic or pneumatic models provide greater power for heavy-duty tires.",
