Car repair involves removing damaged fasteners. For example, you might need to dismantle a nut without damaging the bolt or stud. In this case, of great use can be nut splitters consisting of a frame and a wedge chisel inside of it. They deform one side of the nut so that it can be easily removed.
Types.
By the design, there are ring frame and C-frame nut splitters. The latter ones surround the fastener only from three sides, therefore, they are comfortable to use in hard-to-reach places.
In the manufacturers’ catalogues, there are presented products that differ in the type of the actuating mechanism:
- Mechanical. They only function thanks to the force applied by a man who, by screwing the bolt in the handle of the nut splitter, operates the chisel. Are not very effective but inexpensive.
- Hydraulic. Are fitted with a built-in cylinder with oil, the pressure of which is increased by turning the special screw. The fluid pushes the piston forcing the chisel. These tools do not require much force to be applied and can even split large nuts made of durable metal. Sold at a rather high price.
Nut splitters: tips on use
- You should wear protective goggles in order to prevent particles of the split metal from getting into your eyes.
- Before starting to work, make sure that the chisel is reliably secured in the frame.
- Use only for the nuts of the size the tool is designed for.
- In order to quickly return the chisel of a hydraulic tool into its initial position, you should open the shut-off valve.
- Do not disassemble the tool, this might lead to its failure.
