Posi Lock TJ-1 Transmission Bearing Puller, 2 Jaw, 9-1/4" Reach, 2-3/4" - 14-3/4" Spread Range

This Posi Lock TJ-1 manual transmission bearing puller has two jaws for working in compact spaces and is suitable for extracting shaft-fitted transmission bearings. Its jaws are made of forged steel for increased strength over investment casting, and are tapered for better access in tight spaces. They can fit into a bearing's snap ring groove as narrow as 0.07". This puller has a 9.25" (235 mm) reach and a spread range of 2.75 to 14.75 inches (70 to 375 mm) for increased pulling leverage, and it comes with a tip protector to prevent the tip of the center bolt from mushrooming and provide increased leverage for pulling operations. This manual transmission bearing puller is suitable for extracting shaft-fitted bearings in the automotive industry.

Gear and bearing pullers are tools designed to remove mechanical, press-fit parts, such as bearings, bushings, gears, and pulleys, from a shaft, or to remove a shaft from inside a hole. Pullers have three main parts—the center bolt, gripping jaws, and T-handle—and can be operated manually or hydraulically. The jaws of the puller form a claw that grips the edge of the gear, which is pulled off the shaft when the screw is turned. Pullers are typically configured with two or three jaws and can be constructed of iron, steel, or other alloyed metal. Pullers can be used manually or can be powered by a hydraulic cylinder, adding speed and precision, and reducing the physical labor required for pulls. With a hydraulic puller, compressed air is forced through the cylinder by a pump that is either connected by hose to the puller or is integral to it. Pullers are used in hundreds of applications in the automotive, agricultural, and manufacturing industries, among others.

Posi Lock manufactures pulling jaws, vises, and specialty tools. The company, founded in 1978, is headquartered in Cooperstown, ND.
