Ken-Tool Introduces Dual Wheel Separator

Ken-Tool said its new Dual Wheel Separator makes removing stuck or frozen dual steel wheels quick and easy. Ideal for use on nearly any dual steel wheel truck, bus or van, the separator slips between the frozen wheels and uses the power of a screw-driven pusher to force them apart. Technicians can drive it easily with an impact wrench, the maker added.

The pusher is ball bearing-driven for near-zero turning resistance and its one-piece design ensures it won’t fall apart during use, according to Ken-Tool. Heat-treated for long-lasting strength and durability, the tool’s components have black oxide or bright nickel-plated finish for rust and corrosion resistance, and they are laser-etched for easy identification. The forcing screw, pushers and pullers have powerful 1-1/8-inch diameter x 11 threads for years of reliable service.

The Ken-Tool Dual Wheel Separator includes two pullers to cover large and small dual wheel applications and comes in a sturdy, compact, easy-to-store case, the maker added.
