Pulley puller AWTools AW19009, compact 400 g hand tool for removing pulleys and gears

AWTools AW19009 is a compact pulley puller designed to remove pulleys, gears, bearings, discs and rings in workshop and vehicle maintenance environments. Weighing approximately 400 g, the tool is intended for light to medium-duty extraction tasks where a controlled mechanical pull is required. Constructed from drop-forged tool steel with heat treatment, the puller offers durability and a compact form factor suitable for use in confined spaces.

Advantages

The tool features a hardened and tempered construction that provides wear resistance in repeated use. A central screw with a hex head accepts a ratchet wrench, allowing controlled torque application during extraction. Satin-plated adjustable arms help reduce slippage and can be set independently to accommodate different workpiece sizes. A double-sided jaw design permits gripping from both the outside and the inside of bearings and similar parts, increasing versatility for various removal tasks.

Suitable for

• Removing pulleys on engines and accessory drives
• Extracting gears and toothed components
• Pulling bearings from housings or shafts
• Removing discs, rings and press-fit components in confined areas

Key specifications

• Material: tool steel, drop forged
• Heat treatment: hardened and tempered
• Weight: approximately 400 g
• Central screw: hex head compatible with ratchet wrench, black oxide finish
• Arms: satin-plated, independently adjustable
• Jaw design: double-sided for internal and external gripping

How to use

Position the puller arms around the component to be removed so that the jaws sit securely either behind the flange or inside the bearing race depending on the required grip. Adjust each arm independently to ensure even contact and alignment. Thread the central screw forward until it contacts the shaft or centre point, then use a ratchet wrench on the hex head to apply steady turning force. Continue applying controlled torque until the part is extracted; avoid sudden or excessive force to prevent damage to the component or tool.

Usage recommendations

Use the AWTools AW19009 for light to medium-duty removal jobs and verify correct arm positioning before applying torque. Apply lubricating oil to the central screw periodically to maintain smooth operation, and inspect the jaws for wear. When working on sensitive or high-value components, consider supporting adjacent parts to avoid unintended movement or damage during extraction.
