3/8" COLLET (9.53mm) Dowel Pin

The ⅜” (9.53mm) Collet is a crucial component of the Van Norman Dowel Pin Puller Kit (794-8684-78). This collet is specifically designed to securely grip ⅜ inch (9.53mm) diameter dowel pins, enabling their quick and easy removal from various engine components using the kit’s slide hammer mechanism.

The ⅜” (9.53mm) Collet is an essential part of the Van Norman Dowel Pin Puller Kit (794-8684-78), a toolset designed to simplify and expedite the removal of dowel pins from a wide range of engine components. This particular collet is precisely machined to provide a reliable and firm grip on dowel pins with a ⅜ inch (9.53mm) diameter.

The Dowel Puller Kit utilizes a slide hammer mechanism for efficient removal. To use the ⅜” (9.53mm) collet:

1. The ⅜” (9.53mm) collet (794-8688-58) is mounted onto the shaft of the slide hammer puller.
2. The collet is then placed over the ⅜” (9.53mm) dowel pin that needs to be removed.
3. A downward motion with the sliding weight of the puller engages and locks the collet securely onto the dowel pin.
4. An upward motion with the sliding weight then exerts a pulling force, extracting the dowel pin from its location.

Once the dowel pin has been removed and is held by the collet, the kit includes a removal stand for safe and easy release. To disengage the dowel pin from the ⅜” (9.53mm) collet, the complete assembly is placed on the removal stand, and the head end of the slide hammer rod is struck with a hammer.

The ⅜” (9.53mm) Collet, as part of the Van Norman Dowel Pin Puller Kit, offers a fast, easy, and effective solution for removing ⅜” (9.53mm) dowel pins without causing damage to the surrounding components. Its precise design ensures a secure grip and reliable extraction.
