Tools are an investment that should not be taken lightly and are one of the few items that should outlast the life of the model you are working on...and remain with you for years after. With so many choices available, the decision can be overwhelming. So ProTek R/C has stepped up again, expanding its product line with a complete range of affordable, high quality tools that help to make the decision a little easier.
The ProTek R/C "TruTorque" clutch assembly tool simplifies clutch shoe removal and installation. This tool helps to make a daunting task as easy as a turn of the wrist. Simply slide the end of the tool over the crankshaft of any .12 to .30+ size nitro engine, guide the spring hook under the clutch spring and rotate the handle counter-clockwise to lift the spring out of the groove in the clutch nut. The clutch shoe and spring will slide off the flywheel pin when you pull the tool off the crank.
When its time to re-install the shoes, slide the clutch shoe and spring over the flywheel pin and then slide the tool over the crank. Guide the spring hook beneath the clutch spring, gently turn the tool counter-clockwise to lift the spring above the clutch nut and push forward to seat the shoe. Then, turn the tool a little further so the spring hook rotates out from beneath the clutch spring and remove the tool. Verify that the clutch spring is seated in the clutch nut correctly, and you're done!
When it comes to high quality products that are backed by incredible customer support, ProTek R/C has you covered with the products you need to keep your rig ready for action, no matter what.
