OTC introduces King Pin Pusher set

WARREN, Mich. — Bosch Group has introduced the OTC 4240A 30-Ton King Pin Pusher Set to assist technicians when changing king pins and brake anchor pins on heavy-duty vehicles.

The 30-Ton King Pin Pusher Set, which removes both straight and tapered king pins, includes five special collars and two pins to adapt the tool for various king pin and brake anchor pin applications.

The tool uses the hydraulic force of a hollow-center cylinder to replace corroded king pins, ranging from 7/8- to 2-inch in diameter and up to 11-1/4-inch in length. The included hand pump drives the cylinder.

The tool accommodates most models of trucks and buses and provides up to 30 tons of force, the company said.

Anchor pins can be removed using the hydraulic cylinder and an included adapter, with the tool positioned over the brake's spider.

The set is covered by a lifetime warranty and comes with the following:

• OTC 4241: 30-Ton King Pin/Brake Anchor Pin Pusher frame and adapters
• OTC 4121A-MA: Hydraulic cylinder
• OTC 4012A: Two-speed hand pump
• OTC 36886: Hose assembly
• OTC 25599: Hose half coupler

The 30-Ton King Pin Pusher Set is available through OTC distribution partners in North America.
