Thexton Releases Three New Automotive Repair Tools

The company released its new Brake Depressor, Terminal Release Tool Kit and Heavy Duty Wheel Stud Pilot Pins.

Thexton Manufacturing Co. has added three new tools to its auto service line. First is the Brake Depressor (P/N 594), designed to give brake and repair shops an extra hand when servicing brakes. It attaches to the steering wheel and depresses the brake pedal to activate the brakes without the help of an assistant. Next is the Terminal Release Tool Kit (P/N 595), made to depress the locking tabs of electrical terminals and connectors. Included in the kit are tools to fit Delphi/Tyco, Bosch, Tyco/Lear, Delphi and ITT Cannon/Molex connectors. The third new tool (P/N 591), Heavy Duty Wheel Stud Pilot Pins, work like a sleeve to slip over truck wheel studs and hold the wheel in position while starting nuts.
