Tools and equipment for mounting, dismounting and maintenance
A large share of premature failures of bearings, belt and chain drives is not caused by a faulty component, but by incorrect mounting, dismounting or adjustment. Hammer blows, open-flame heating, judging belt tension by feel and dial-gauge alignment leave damage that only shows after weeks of operation.
At Tinex & Bell we supply professional tools and measuring instruments that make these operations controlled and repeatable — from hydraulic pullers and induction heaters to laser shaft alignment systems and belt tension meters. We represent established manufacturers including BETEX, TM Induction Heating, easytherm, Schaeffler and optibelt.
Our tool range includes:
Product range
mechanical and hydraulic pullers, two- and three-arm,
internal pullers and separator plates,
hydraulic sets with safety valves,
induction heaters for bearings and rings,
bench, mobile and vertical heater versions,
laser shaft alignment systems,
laser pulley alignment devices,
belt tension meters,
mounting kits for bearings and bushings,
calibrated shim plates for machine alignment.
Technical support in choosing the right tool
The choice of tool depends on the size and type of the component, the available space, how often the operation is performed and the required accuracy. For pullers, the decisive factors are the required force and access to the bearing; for induction heaters, the bore diameter and mass of the workpiece; for laser systems, the machine type and the mounting arrangement.
Our specialists help determine the appropriate tool and, where useful, demonstrate it at your site. Beyond supply, we also advise on mounting and dismounting procedures and train maintenance staff.
Tools by application
Hydraulic pullers
Mechanical and hydraulic pullers for controlled dismounting of bearings, pulleys and gears — without damaging shafts or seating surfaces.
Laser shaft and pulley alignment
Laser systems for shaft coaxiality and pulley alignment — fewer vibrations, lower bearing temperatures and longer maintenance intervals.
Mounting tool kits
Sets of impact rings and sleeves for mounting bearings, bushings and seals — force acts on the correct ring, never on the raceways.
Shim plates
Calibrated stainless U-shaped shim plates for precise alignment of electric motors and rotating machinery.
Belt tension meters
Non-contact belt tension measurement instead of judging by feel — a repeatable result and a longer drive service life.
Induction heaters
Fast, controlled heating of bearings and rings before mounting — without open flame, oil baths or the risk of structural damage.
