Orion Motor Tech Blind Hole Collet Bearing Race and Seal Puller Extractor Kit, Slide Hammer Pilot Insert Inner Internal Bearing Removal Tool Set, 16PCS

Worked fine, good tool to have around.

I give this product a 5, ONLY for the design of it, the real disappointment is the number of reviews This OMT product made me very disappointed. Did not expect these type of issues from OMT. The 1st set I had to turn back in for defects. However, this 2nd set is actually worse. The first issue are the diameters of the collets themselves, most were undersized .8mm to 2.2mm. This affects the working range where it was impossible to remove a bearing, one too big, the other to small [1st kit]. Another problem, second issue is the cutting of the collet face itself. They are not 120 deg apart or offset from one another. This causes the collet not to open evenly, more like egg shape [5 of 10]. Thirdly, is the Pin Bolt, they are not heat treated hard on the tips that spreads the collet. Another issues of egg shaping. As per pic, these Pin Bolts where only use once to test the collet spreading and return to their retracted position [all were used to open the collet to 60% of max or approx half way. One could only imaged what these tips would look like after a dozen or less usages. All I can say, this collet set will deteriorate rapidly. Maybe others have had good luck. However, from what little I use it, I would NOT recommend this collet puller set. Hope this helps you.

Typical Chinese quality. If you look at it as a starting point and not a finished product you won't be disappointed. The stays are wobbly, the steel is soft and some of the threads are boogered. That being said, with a little effort getting it ready I was able to pull two races on a machine tool I am rebuilding. Worked great. the collets and threads are very soft steel so it certainly won't last for repeated operations, but for occasional use it worked great. If you want quality spend the peony and get Snap-on. For a one off use, this is the tool.

I’ve had this Orion Motor Tech Blind Hole Collet Bearing Removal Kit for a few months now, and it has really proven its worth. Recently, I used it to pull out the transfer case half shaft axle bushing on a Ford Escape, and it worked great. The kit made what could have been a frustrating and difficult job much easier and cleaner. The collet system grips the bearing firmly without damaging surrounding components, which I especially appreciated given how tight and awkward the space was. The quality of the materials feels solid, and the design is intuitive enough that setup and use were straightforward. This kit is a solid addition to any automotive DIYer or professional’s toolbox, especially if you’re dealing with blind hole bearings or bushings. It saved me time and effort and got the job done efficiently. Highly recommended!

Good tool to have in the arsenal..

How can something be worse than garbage? Because it also wastes your time in addition to not performing the function it was supposed to. I bought this for a specific job. I had two blind bearings to pull, pretty straightforward ones too, and I was successful with zero. A 0% success rate is pretty terrible. Not only are the threads really chattery and rough, still covered in dust from the manufacturing process and sharp as hell, but the puller brace is a joke. It's a floppy mess of loose-fitting pot metal parts that aren't even remotely solid enough to pull a bearing. Before I even loaded up the first attempt, I donned my safety glasses, knowing it was likely this thing would get its final revenge on me by taking me out through the eyeball. As you can see from the picture, the whole thing twisted under any reasonable amount of torque, and now it's permanently bent. How much torque you ask? I dunno, but less than it took to remove that bearing. Now, I know what you're thinking: "but, but, maybe your bearing was really stuck and it was asking too much of this puller to remove it!?" Nope, I ended up fabricobbling a blind puller from a couple washers, some half-inch bolts I had laying around, and a flange puller plate. Pulled that sucker right out. Every time I buy an OMT product, I know I'm taking a gamble, and I've been burned by several of their products in the past. Well, I think this is the last time I wager my time. I suggest you don't waste yours.

This might work fine on larger bearings. On smaller bearings it is useless unless the bearing happens to be attached to a motor or something solid. Trying to use the press part with the legs... yeah the legs are too short for the second to smallest attachment. So IF it was about 5 inches longer I could have pulled the bearing out with the jaws. But it's so short that it bottoms out before you can pull the bearing.

I had four bearings with a 1/2" hole that needed to be removed. The slap hammer would not work as the bearings were in a aluminum housing but the two legged puller worked fine. I found that by putting anti seize on the spreader pin it worked easer and smoother.

Essential item in my garage now following complete bike rebuild including virtually all bearings. A few tips and techniques had to be learned to get the best out of it but overall very positive and good value.

Got this set to help with removing a wheel bearing from a small passenger car. This tool was not only difficult to try and set up to use, it's also no where near strong enough to handle the pressure required to remove a wheel bearing. The hardened steel bent under the pressure while using a socket wrench to turn it, which rendered the tool unusable after the first try. I ended up using a shop press to remove the bearing which made the job so much easier. I couldn't imagine wanting to use this tool for any type of repair job in the future. I just don't trust it. I have submitted a return request.

Excelente producto lo mejor para sacar bujes de sigueñal

Bought this to remove half shaft oil seals . It took longer to remove the plastic film what the case arrived in than it did to remove the seals good tool easy to use and does the job

Está macizo, funciona muy bien para sacar baleros internos, el precio de 2,000 se me hace razonable.
