Applications

The KL-1027-4560 is an indispensable tool for automotive repair shops, dealer service departments, and independent garages performing wheel bearing replacements. It is utilized in conjunction with standard shop presses and bearing tool sets to accurately center the bearing relative to the wheel hub or suspension carrier.
