FAQs

What is the maximum size component this tool can handle?

The jaws range from 18.5mm (0.73 inches) up to 89mm (3 1/2 inches).

Can this tool be used for pressing bearings, not just driving races?

Yes, it is designed to seat races, bearings, and seals with ease due to its jaw mechanism and impact design.

What material is the tool made from?

The tool features a durable aluminium construction with a steel-capped striker shaft/handle.

How do I adjust the jaws?

The jaws are adjustable to accommodate different sizes within the specified range. The knurled drive likely allows for fine-tuning the jaw width.

Is this tool suitable for very small, delicate bearings?

While versatile, extreme care should be taken with very small or delicate bearings to avoid damage. The tool is best suited for robust industrial and automotive applications.

Does the tool come with a specific case or storage solution?

The provided product information does not specify a dedicated case. It is recommended to store it in a toolbox or workshop drawer to protect it.

Troubleshooting

Jaws not gripping the component securely

Ensure the correct jaw size is selected and that they are fully expanded to engage the component's edge. Check for any debris on the jaws or the component.

Difficulty driving a race/bearing/seal

Verify that the component and the housing are clean. Ensure the driver is striking the component evenly. For stubborn parts, a light application of lubricant to the component's edge or housing may help, but use sparingly and as per component manufacturer recommendations.

Striker shaft feels loose

Ensure the steel cap is securely fitted. If the issue persists, inspect for damage to the shaft or cap and contact the manufacturer if necessary.
