Slide Hammer Question

[VRStrickland]

I recently picked up a Gearwrench slide hammer set (41700D). I was wondering if anyone knows if the thread pitch is the same as the OTC version? I am looking to get the OTC 4421 Pilot Bearing Puller and am wondering if it will work on my Gearwrench set. Or maybe someone knows of a similar tool that will work with my set. Thanks.

Does this have a 5/8" diam screw? If it does, all of my pullers are 18tpi. That pilot bearing puller should be 5/8" X 18tpi according the the spec. pulled up by googling.

The standard thread size for slide hammers is 5/8"-18.

Thanks guys. I will check mine but I was thinking they were a standard size.

I think SO has different thread size

OTC made their catalog listings more of a pain in the **** to find on the Internet, but they have a healthy number of available adapters, if needed. SO lists some as well.

I bought one to use the Perf Tool 5lb slide hammer (5/8"-18) with a Kent-Moore bearing race / blind hole puller.

^^^ Yes but Only on certain models like their 12lb body slide hammer kit 5t-10t heavy puller attachments. They offer the small 3/8 16 size. Then 5/8" 18 and 3/4" 16 for the heavier slide hammers. They are pretty much all interchable I welded up a few adapters just buy a grade 8 nut and bolt and weld them together.

SO is made in different sizes. small is like 5/8 x 18 Med is like 3/4 x 16. Large is 1"x14
