The missing workshop accessory for your Slot.it extractor-inserter
The SITL02 Pinion Support from Slot.it is an accessory specifically designed to be used alongside the extractor-inserter of the same brand. Its function is to hold and position the pinion during extraction or insertion operations, providing stability and control to the process.
Function and performance
Working with pinions requires precision. A poorly extracted or inserted pinion can damage both the part and the motor shaft, directly affecting track performance. The SITL02 support prevents the pinion from shifting or rotating freely during the operation, ensuring that each intervention is clean and without risk of damage.
Compatibility
This support is designed to be used in combination with the Slot.it extractor-inserter. It is especially useful for preparation and maintenance tasks of Slot.it slot cars, although it can be beneficial in any application where a pinion needs to be securely held during manipulation with the appropriate tool.
Assembly and preparation
The use is straightforward: place the pinion on the support before proceeding with the extractor-inserter. This way, the part remains fixed and aligned, allowing for controlled application of the necessary force. It is one of those small tools that makes the difference between a job well done and one that may end in breakage.
Ideal for…
- Preparers and enthusiasts who perform their own adjustments and transmission changes.
- Slot clubs where multiple cars are worked on and agility in the workshop is needed.
- Any user of the Slot.it extractor-inserter who wants to make the most of their tool.
