Steck Manufacturing 71310 Inner Race Hub Saver

Steck's new Inner Race Hub Saver is a 6 steel cone cylinder with an integrated bearing in its base nesting in an 8.5 heavy base to allow a technician to place the hub on the tip of the cone to rotate the hub with one hand while applying heat from an oxyacetylene torch. While rotating the hub the oxyacetylene torch will raise the temperature of the inner bearing race evenly and quickly a few hundred degrees causing the race to expand and release from the hub due to its tight tolerance. This allows the technician to remove the race from the hub in about 5 minutes.

Features

• Unbolt or press out the wheel hub and bearing assembly from the knuckle on the suspension arm of most Toyota, Honda, Ford, Acura, Mazda, Subaru, VW, Audi & BMW

• Clean spindle both before and after interference fit removal with emery cloth and remove grease with brake cleaner or solvent

• Assemble Inner Race Hub Saver steel cone into base and place hub on top of cone. Place CLEAN hub and inner race assembly on assembled cone and base

• Put on proper PPE, such as goggles, gloves, etc. to light the oxyacetylene torch

• While slowly rotating hub hold the torch at a 45 deg angle, concentrating heat in the center of the bearing race for approximately a minute or until it slides onto the cone

• If bearing does not release from the hub within 2 minutes, let assembly cool down to room temperature and repeat starting at step 2

• Turn off the torch and invert the Inner Race Hub Cone to remove the interference fit before it cools
