• Easy to use: Purpose built for wheelchair forks and rear hubs for simple, accurate bearing removal and installation.
• Cost effective: Focused on the 12mm size so you get only the tools you need.
• Right tool for the job: Designed for wheelchairs, not bicycles or cars, which reduces the risk of damage.

Why It Matters

Regular bearing maintenance helps your wheelchair move faster, farther, and smoother. Most manufacturers recommend re-greasing or replacing caster bearings yearly and servicing forks or rear wheel bearings as needed. This tool kit provides everything you need to do it correctly and safely, whether at home or in a workshop.

Problems This Product Solves

• Automotive pullers grip the inner bearing ring, but wheelchair axle sleeves prevent proper contact, making removal difficult.
• Bicycle pullers are expensive and rarely available in 12mm sizes suited to wheelchairs.
• Some wheelchair forks have recessed bearings that require extra tool reach; this kit is designed for those applications.

⚠️ Caution

• Confirm your bearing size before use to avoid damage.
• Use controlled pressure rather than excessive force.
• Contact us if you are unsure which bearing type your wheelchair uses.
