Puller with sliding jaws YATO YT-2516 — 10.2 cm (4"), 1.4 t capacity

YATO YT-2516 is a three-jaw puller with sliding jaws, offering a 10.2 cm (4") reach and a maximum pulling capacity of 1.4 tonnes. Constructed for automotive and mechanical maintenance tasks, this tool provides controlled extraction of gears, bearings and pulleys in confined spaces. Adjustable jaw positions and a compact footprint make it suitable for workshop use where reliable grip and precise alignment are required.

Advantages

The three-jaw design ensures even force distribution around the component, reducing the risk of damage during removal. Sliding jaws allow quick adjustment to different diameters without disassembly, while robust materials and a hardened central screw deliver consistent performance under load. The 10.2 cm reach provides access to moderately recessed parts, and the overall construction supports repeatable, stable operation.

Suitable for

• Removing gears, bearings and pulleys in cars and light commercial vehicles
• Workshop maintenance and mechanical repairs
• Extracting press-fitted or seized components from shafts
• Tasks requiring controlled, centered pulling in limited spaces

Key specifications

• Type: three-jaw puller with sliding jaws
• Reach: 10.2 cm (4")
• Maximum pulling capacity: 1.4 tonnes
• Jaw configuration: adjustable, sliding jaws for variable diameters
• Construction: hardened central screw and durable jaw bodies for repeated use

How to use

Place the three jaws evenly around the component to be removed, adjusting the sliding jaws to achieve a secure, centered grip. Turn the central screw clockwise using an appropriate wrench or socket to apply pulling force; proceed gradually and ensure the tool remains centered to avoid uneven loading. If resistance is high, apply penetrating lubricant to the joint and continue with steady, controlled turns until the part releases. After use, retract the jaws and clean any debris from the screw and jaw surfaces before storage.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate eye protection and keep hands clear of pinch points during operation. Do not exceed the specified 1.4 t capacity. Inspect jaws and screw for wear or damage before each use and replace the tool if deformation or cracking is present. For very corroded or heavily seized parts, combine controlled mechanical pulling with chemical penetrants or heat where safe and appropriate.
