FAQs

What is included in the 20-piece kit?

The kit includes a slide hammer (36 cm), carbon rod jaw head, welding head, 3 triangle plates, 3 OT tabs, 4 round tabs, a triangle chuck, a round tab chuck, a spot welding gun, 3 flower triangle chucks, and 1 jaw head.

Does this kit include a spot welder?

No, this kit includes the dent pulling tools and accessories but does not include the spot welder itself. A compatible spot welder is required for use.

How do I choose the right tab for a dent?

Generally, use round or OT tabs for smaller, shallower dents, and triangle tabs for larger or more severe dents. Experimentation may be needed based on the specific dent's shape.

Can this kit be used on aluminum body panels?

This kit is primarily designed for steel body panels. Repairs on aluminum may require different techniques or specialized tools due to aluminum's properties.

What is the length of the slide hammer?

The slide hammer included in the kit has a length of 36 cm.

Is this tool suitable for beginners?

While the tools are designed for ease of use, some practice may be beneficial for beginners to master the technique of controlled pulling for optimal results.

How should I maintain the tools?

Clean all metal parts with a dry cloth after use, and store them in a dry location to prevent corrosion. Periodically check for any signs of wear or damage.

Troubleshooting

Tab not adhering to the bodywork

Ensure the bodywork surface is clean and free of paint, rust, or dirt. Verify the spot welder settings are correct for proper weld penetration.

Slide hammer not pulling effectively

Check that the slide hammer is securely attached to the puller tab. Ensure the dent area is not too complex or severe for the chosen tab and pulling technique. Increase pulling force gradually.

Weld is too weak or too strong

Adjust the spot welder settings (time and amperage) according to the manufacturer's recommendations for the specific metal thickness and type. Ensure proper grounding of the spot welder.

Tool components appear rusty

Clean the affected parts with a wire brush or fine-grit sandpaper. Apply a light coating of oil to prevent future rusting and store in a dry environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the kit, first ensure you have a compatible spot welder (not included). Select the appropriate puller tab (OT, round, or triangle) based on the dent's size and shape. Attach the tab to the bodywork using the spot welding gun according to the welder's instructions. Once the tab is securely attached and cooled, connect the slide hammer to the tab. Begin pulling gently and progressively with the slide hammer, checking progress frequently.
