Q: What is meant by "spread" in reference to this bearing splitter?
A: The spread is the distance between the two edges of the splitter that grip around the component; with a minimum of 1/2 inch it can get into tight clearances, and with maximum 5-3/4 inch it can accommodate larger bearings.

Q: Which OTC pullers are compatible with this 1124 Bearing Splitter?
A: It is compatible with OTC puller models Nos. 1035, 1040, 1041, 1042, 1065, 1063, and 938 those models can use the splitter by attaching their jaws or legs into the tapped holes on the 1124.

Q: Can this splitter be used without a puller?
A: Not safely, the 1124 is an attachment meant to provide grip behind a bearing so that a compatible OTC puller can apply axial pulling force; using it alone risks damage to the component or tool, and lacks the mechanical leverage required.
