SLEEVE CLAMP Dowel Pin

The Dowel Pin Puller Clamp Sleeve is a crucial component of the Van Norman Dowel Pin Puller Kit (794-8684-78). This sleeve is designed to securely fasten the various collets included in the kit onto the slide rod of the puller, ensuring a firm and reliable connection for effective dowel pin removal.

The Dowel Pin Puller Clamp Sleeve is an integral part of the Van Norman Dowel Pin Puller Kit (794-8684-78). Its primary function is to create a strong and stable connection between the selected collet (sized to match the dowel pin being removed) and the slide rod of the puller assembly. This secure fastening is essential for the efficient and safe extraction of dowel pins from engine components.

Without the Clamp Sleeve, the collet would not be properly affixed to the slide rod, potentially leading to slippage or failure during the dowel pin removal process. The Clamp Sleeve is designed with precision to fit both the slide rod and the various collet sizes included in the kit, ensuring a tight and reliable hold.

In the operation of the Van Norman Dowel Pin Puller Kit:

1. The appropriate collet is chosen based on the diameter of the dowel pin to be removed.
2. The collet is placed onto the end of the slide rod.
3. The Dowel Pin Puller Clamp Sleeve is then slid over the collet and onto the slide rod.
4. By tightening or engaging the Clamp Sleeve (the exact mechanism may vary slightly depending on the design), the collet is securely fastened to the slide rod, creating a solid pulling assembly.
5. The slide hammer mechanism can then be used to engage and extract the dowel pin.

The 794-8688-46 Dowel Pin Puller Clamp Sleeve is a small but critical component that ensures the integrity and effectiveness of the entire dowel pin removal process when using the Van Norman Kit (794-8684-78). Its robust design and precise fit guarantee a secure connection, allowing for reliable extraction of dowel pins without damage.
