To easily and quickly remove the bearing from the shaft, you will need to use a special device - the so-called bearing puller.
You can buy it in the store or do it yourself. In this review, we will consider the second option. The author uses old pliers as a source material.
First of all, the pliers must be disassembled. To do this, the author drills a through hole in the center. This operation is most conveniently performed on a drilling machine.
If there is no drilling machine, you can use the stand for electric drill (purchased or homemade). How to make a rack, read in this review.
The main stages of work
At the next, we heat the ends of the pliers handles using a gas burner. Then we bend the ends at an angle of 90 degrees. The result was captures.
From a piece of a thick U-shaped plate, a steel round disc and a blank, the master made the handle of a puller. See the photo below.
To this handle it will be necessary to attach captures from pliers. To do this, you need a bolt with a nut of the desired diameter.
The fixture is ready, and you can try it in work. For details on how to make a bearing puller from old pliers with your own hands, we recommend that you watch in this video.
