OTC ROBINAIR BOSCH - ACH 1157 Automotive Pliers
The OTC Robinair Bosch - ACH 1157 Pilot Bearing Puller combines targeted performance with compact slide-hammer power. Designed for professional repair bays and home garages alike, this unit pairs a precision bearing puller with a 2.5 lb slide hammer to deliver controlled extraction of pilot bearings without damaging the surrounding shaft or housing. The tool complements automotive pliers offerings where secure grip, leverage and durability are required.
Cutting Pliers And Mechanic Pliers Applications
Although categorized with pliers-style tools, the 1157 is purpose-built for bearing removal tasks common to transmissions and engine service. Its puller jaws and slide-hammer interface are optimized to engage pilot bearings while minimizing slippage. Mechanics will appreciate the straightforward setup and reliable engagement when working in tight engine compartments or on mid-size vehicle drivetrains. This tool bridges the gap between general cutting pliers tasks and specialist bearing extraction.
Professional Pliers And Heavy Duty Pliers Performance
Built for repeat use, the 1157 meets the expectations for professional pliers alternatives used in heavy-duty environments. The 2.5 lb slide hammer provides enough impact force for stubborn bearings while remaining compact enough for controlled strikes. Components are finished to resist wear, and the puller geometry helps distribute load to avoid concentrated stress on the part being removed. For shops that require robust extraction tools without excess bulk, this model is a practical choice.
Compatibility and versatility are focal points: the puller slips into common bearing bores and adapts to typical pilot bearing sizes, making it useful across many late-model vehicles. The simple maintenance and intuitive operation reduce downtime during service, helping technicians complete bearing removals with consistent results.
