Pulley puller Proline 46868 — mechanical tool, single-piece set for removing pulleys

Proline 46868 is a mechanical pulley puller supplied as a single-piece set for controlled removal of pulleys, bearings and similar press-fitted parts. The tool is designed to deliver axial extraction force while minimising the risk of damage to shafts and housings. The set includes an impact puller body and four replaceable tips — two inner-type and two outer-type tips — to adapt to different dismounting situations commonly encountered in automotive and light industrial maintenance.

Advantages

The Proline pulley puller provides a compact, single-piece solution that combines an impact-capable puller body with interchangeable tips, enabling versatility without multiple full-size tools. Its replaceable inner and outer tips allow adaptation to internal or external pulling points, improving contact and reducing slippage. The mechanical design produces steady axial force for controlled extraction, which helps protect shafts and surrounding components during removal operations.

Suitable for

• Removing automotive pulleys and harmonic balancers
• Dismounting bearings from shafts or housings
• Servicing alternators, water pumps and power-steering pulleys
• Light industrial maintenance where press-fitted parts must be extracted

Key specifications

• Tool type: mechanical impact pulley puller with replaceable tips
• Set contents: impact puller body plus four replaceable tips (2 inner, 2 outer)
• Configuration: single-piece set intended for workshop and maintenance use
• Compatibility: adaptable to internal and external pulling points via tip selection
• Primary function: controlled axial extraction of pulleys and press-fitted parts

How to use

Select the appropriate tip for the application — inner-type tips for internal engagement or outer-type tips for external engagement. Fit the chosen tip to the puller body and position the puller so that the tip(s) engage the component to be removed while the puller’s central forcing point bears on the shaft or a suitable support. Apply controlled impacts to the puller’s forcing point or rotate the forcing mechanism as designed to generate axial extraction force until the part releases. Inspect the shaft and component seating after removal to confirm there is no unintended damage.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and support the assembly to prevent sudden movement when the part releases. Choose inner or outer tips that provide secure engagement and avoid using excessive force; if the part does not release with reasonable force, reassess the mounting and consider additional penetrating lubricant or professional assistance.
