Heavy Duty 3 Jaw Puller for Automotive and Industrial Applications
Posi Lock Puller 3 Jaw Manual Puller, 14in Reach, 40 Ton Capacity
The Posi Lock PT116 is a heavy-duty 3-jaw manual gear and bearing puller designed for removing stubborn press-fit components with controlled mechanical force. With a 40-ton pulling capacity, 14-inch reach, and adjustable 3- to 25-inch spread, it is built for demanding maintenance and repair work involving large bearings, gears, pulleys, wheels, bushings, and other shaft-mounted components.
At the center of the design is Posi Lock's patented Safety Cage, which keeps the jaws securely positioned during setup and pulling. A built-in T-handle allows the jaws to be opened and closed for one-person positioning, while the three-jaw configuration helps distribute the pulling load evenly around the component.
Key Features
40-ton pulling capacity for demanding industrial removal work
Three-jaw configuration provides balanced load distribution and concentric pulling
14-inch reach accommodates large components and deeper mounting positions
3- to 25-inch spread range provides flexibility for different component sizes
Patented Safety Cage helps keep the jaws locked in position during setup and operation
Forged steel jaws provide greater strength than conventional investment-cast designs
Tapered jaws improve access around components and in tighter working areas
T-handle adjustment allows convenient one-person jaw positioning
Designed for removing bearings, gears, pulleys, wheels, bushings, and other shaft-fitted parts
Hardened center bolt tip is designed for durable contact and pulling force
Manufactured in the United States
Heavy-Duty 40-Ton Pulling Capacity
The PT116 is designed for applications where smaller manual pullers cannot provide enough force. Its 40-ton capacity provides substantial mechanical pulling power for large industrial components.
Posi Lock notes that the amount of force required to remove a component can vary significantly depending on the press fit, component condition, shaft size, and setup. The puller should therefore be selected and operated according to the application and manufacturer's guidelines rather than assuming the maximum capacity will always be required.
Three-Jaw Design for Balanced Pulling
Three jaws surround the component from multiple points, helping distribute the pulling load and maintain a more concentric pulling action. This configuration is particularly useful when removing bearings, gears, pulleys, and other components installed around a shaft.
The jaws are forged from steel, providing the strength required for high-force manual pulling applications. Their tapered profile also helps the jaws reach into areas where access is restricted.
Posi Lock Safety Cage
The patented Safety Cage is one of the defining features of the PT116. The cage guides and retains the jaws, helping prevent them from slipping off the work surface or snapping out of position during setup.
The cage also makes positioning the puller more straightforward because the jaws remain controlled while the tool is being adjusted.
Adjustable Reach and Spread
The PT116 provides a 14-inch nominal reach and a 3- to 25-inch spread range. This gives the operator flexibility when working with components of different sizes and mounting positions.
Keep in mind that reach changes as the jaw spread changes. Posi Lock defines reach as the distance between the pulling surface of the jaws and the puller's cage/head, and this distance decreases as the jaws are opened farther.
Convenient Manual Operation
The PT116 does not require a hydraulic pump or external power source. Its manual center-bolt mechanism generates the pulling force, while the T-handle provides a convenient way to adjust and position the jaws.
This makes the puller useful in maintenance environments where a self-contained mechanical tool is preferred or where hydraulic equipment is not readily available.

Typical Applications
The Posi Lock PT116 is designed for demanding mechanical maintenance and component-removal applications, including:
Removing large bearings
Gear removal
Pulley removal
Wheel removal
Bushing extraction
Sprocket removal
Press-fit component removal
Industrial machinery maintenance
Automotive and heavy-equipment repair
General mechanical service work
Important Selection Considerations
Choosing the right puller involves more than simply matching the component diameter to the puller's maximum spread. The required reach, spread, shaft size, component configuration, and expected removal force should all be considered.
Posi Lock recommends considering the application setup carefully because actual removal force can vary substantially depending on the tightness of the press fit and the condition of the parts.
Always position the puller securely and operate it within its rated capacity. Do not exceed the manufacturer's specified torque or pulling force.
Why Choose the Posi Lock PT116?
The Posi Lock PT116 combines a substantial 40-ton mechanical pulling capacity with a three-jaw design, long 14-inch reach, and wide 3- to 25-inch spread. Its forged steel jaws and patented Safety Cage provide a combination of strength, controlled positioning, and secure engagement for demanding component-removal jobs.
For professional maintenance teams, repair shops, industrial mechanics, and heavy-equipment technicians who need a high-capacity manual puller, the PT116 offers a robust, self-contained solution without requiring hydraulic power.
