Proto J4333A Gear Bearing Separator 6 Inch Spread

Product Description

The PROTO J4333A is a gear and bearing separator designed for pulling rings, bearings, and gears from shafts and housings in mechanical service applications. It opens to a maximum spread of 6 inches, giving technicians reach across a wide range of component diameters without swapping tools. At 12.16 pounds, the J4333A is a substantial, shop-grade tool built for repetitive service work. It is used by maintenance mechanics, millwrights, and industrial service technicians wherever bearings and gears must be removed cleanly and without damage to adjacent components.

This separator is suited for mechanical workshops, fleet maintenance bays, and industrial service environments where bearing and gear removal is routine. The 6-inch spread capacity covers a broad range of shaft-mounted components encountered in motors, pumps, gearboxes, and similar rotating equipment. It is appropriate for both light industrial and heavy-duty maintenance settings where controlled, even force is needed to free press-fit components.

Key Features

• Maximum spread of 6 inches accommodates a wide range of bearing and gear diameters
• Gear and bearing separator style applies even, controlled force to minimize component damage
• Designed for ring, bearing, and gear removal applications
• Substantial 12.16-pound construction suited for repetitive shop use
• Single-piece packaging for straightforward tool inventory and storage

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use separator for gear and bearing removal tasks on shafts and housings up to 6 inches in spread diameter across standard rotating equipment applications.

Installation Notes

This tool is operated by qualified mechanics and millwrights performing bearing and gear removal on rotating equipment. Before use, de-energize, lock out, and tag out all associated machinery per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Position the separator jaws squarely behind the component being removed to distribute force evenly and prevent cocking or damage to the shaft. Do not exceed the rated maximum spread capacity.
