Wheels Manufacturing Pro Bearing Press Tool – Professional Grade Precision for Your WorkshopAchieve flawless, professional-grade bearing installation with the Wheels Manufacturing Pro Bearing Press Tool. An essential centerpiece for any serious home mechanic or professional bike workshop, this tool is engineered to provide the ultimate in precision, control, and efficiency. Say goodbye to makeshift methods and the risk of damaging expensive frames and components. The Pro Bearing Press ensures that every bearing is seated perfectly straight, fully supported, and without the damaging side-loads that cause premature wear and poor performance. Protect your investment and guarantee smooth, reliable operation from the very first turn of the crank or spin of the wheel.The design of the Pro Bearing Press is centered on providing the user with superior leverage and tactile feedback. Its large, ergonomic handles are comfortably machined to fit your hands, allowing you to apply steady, even pressure with minimal effort. This controlled application is critical for pressing bearings into sensitive carbon fiber frames and delicate alloy hub shells. The tool´s robust threaded rod design ensures that the press remains perfectly aligned throughout the installation process, eliminating the possibility of crooked or misaligned bearings that can lead to creaking, binding, and rapid failure.Key Benefits:* Unmatched Precision: The threaded rod and handle system provides micro-adjustable, even pressure, guaranteeing perfect bearing alignment and preventing damage to your frame, hub, or the bearings themselves.* Enhanced Workshop Efficiency: Featuring a quick-release design, the press head can be rapidly slid into position, saving valuable time during setup and removal. This makes it ideal for busy workshops performing multiple installations.* Ergonomic Control: Two large, machined aluminum handles offer excellent leverage and a comfortable grip, reducing hand fatigue and giving you complete control over the pressing force.Main Features:* Two precision-machined, ergonomic aluminum handles for superior grip and leverage.* A quick-release press head for rapid adjustment and tool setup.* A high-strength, precision-threaded rod for smooth and controlled operation.* Designed as a modular system to work seamlessly with Wheels Manufacturing bearing drifts (sold separately).The Professional Standard for Bearing InstallationThis tool is specifically designed to correctly install sealed cartridge Bearings. By using the appropriate Wheels Manufacturing drifts, the press applies force only to the outer race of the bearing. This is the single most important factor in a successful installation, as it prevents the pressing force from being transmitted through the inner race and ball bearings. This method eliminates the risk of brinelling (denting) the bearing races, which is a common cause of rough-feeling and short-lived bearings. Whether you are installing large bottom bracket...
