In waste tire recycling operations, one of the essential pre-treatment steps is removing the internal steel wire from tires. This step not only protects downstream equipment but also improves the quality of the final rubber products. A tire debeader is the machine specifically designed for this purpose.
What Is a Tire Debeader?
A tire debeader machine is a hydraulic-powered machine used to extract the steel wire bead from the inner edge of waste tires. This machine is a crucial component in the early stage of a rubber powder production line, preparing the tires for shredding or grinding by removing the tough, wire-reinforced rings that are difficult to process.
Our debeader models are designed to handle tires with diameters of up to 1200mm, making them ideal for passenger car and light truck tires. Of course, for larger tires, such as OTR tires and mining tires, we also offer corresponding models.
How Does the Tyre Debeader Work?
The debeading process begins by positioning the tire onto the extraction port of the tire wire drawing machine. A strong steel hook, driven by a motor-powered hydraulic system, is pushed into the tire to grip the steel bead wire embedded in the tire wall.
Under the force of hydraulic pressure, the hook performs a reciprocating motion and pulls the steel wire out efficiently and cleanly. This process minimizes rubber loss and prevents wire breakage, ensuring the steel is fully extracted and the tire is ready for further processing.

Two Types of Tire Debeader Machine For Sale
We offer two main types of debeader machines to suit different operational needs:
- Single Hook Debeader: Removes the bead wire from one side of the tire at a time. Ideal for operations with moderate processing requirements.
- Double Hook Debeader: Simultaneously extracts bead wires from both sides of the tire, significantly improving processing efficiency and throughput.
Why Is Tire Debeading Important?
Removing the steel wire from tires before tire shredding or grinding is critical for several reasons:
- Protects shredding tires machines and rubber powder mill from excessive wear and tear
- Improves processing efficiency in downstream machines
- Enables recycling of clean steel wire, which can be sold separately
- Ensures consistent particle size and quality of the final rubber powder
Brief Introduction of Tire Debeader Parameters
We offer two models of waste tire steel wire removal machines for customers to choose from: single hook and double hook types.
The single hook debeader model is equipped with an 11kW motor, with overall dimensions of 4.1×0.7×1.7 meters and a weight of approximately 1400 kg. It is suitable for processing tires with diameters from 900 to 1200 mm, with a capacity of 20–30 tires per hour.
The double hook debeader machine uses an 18.5kW motor, measures 4.2×0.9×1.7 meters, and weighs 1500 kg. It handles the same tire sizes but offers higher efficiency, processing 40–50 tires per hour.
