Bearing pullers are versatile and multi-purpose tools designed to easily remove or unmount a great range of components like bearings, couplings, gears, and pulleys from the shaft in various industrial settings. These separators are constructed from robust tool-grade steel for their effective and practical applications. They are equipped with a jaw that pulls the components securely and sets them apart by breaking their frictional forces. Moreover, they feature a handle and a hex end (male) designed to match the desired drive sockets. These pullers or separators are widely employed for industrial machinery to remove broken parts that are difficult to remove manually.
Why Are Bearing Pullers Important?
A bearing puller is indispensable for removing stuck or damaged components in industrial machinery and other scenarios. They carry out essential functions without damaging the adjacent components. They provide safe and reliable components removal and help to reduce downtime. Additionally, they are used as an alternative to other tools for applications that damage the components, thus, allowing machinery or equipment reliability and performance.
Types of Bearing Pullers:
Bearing pullers are categorised into various types and include:
Heavy-duty pullers feature splendid jaws and are most commonly used for dismounting bearings. They easily dismount bearings without damaging them and are suited for various commercial and industrial settings.
These pullers utilize a hydraulic mechanism for pulling various components, including belt pulley, bearing, gear, and wheel in the machinery industry. They also remove stuck or tightened components quickly and safely.
These pullers are designed to remove or replace the pulley couplings, bearings, and other components without removing the shaft or dismantling machinery. They come in two- or three-arm versions, with two arms widely favoured for confined spaces, whereas the latter provides robust pulling action with excellent load distribution.
These pullers feature safety valves and spring-operated center points for overload reduction and are used to insert between the shaft shoulder and bearings.
These pullers retain their rings and are known as user-friendly separators that remove grooved ball bearings from cases and shafts without damaging a bearing. The built-in ring allows for keeping the puller arm in position.
Typical Applications:
As bearing pullers effectively remove various components from a recess or shaft, they are indispensable tools for a great range of settings, including:
- Machinery Industry
- Automotive Industry
- Manufacturing Applications
- Food and Beverage Industry.
