OEMTOOLS Pilot Bearing Puller Attachment 27059 — Two‑Jaw Slide Hammer Adapter, Durable

The OEMTOOLS 27059 is a two‑jaw pilot bearing puller attachment that mounts to a compatible slide hammer to safely extract pilot bearings, bushings and other press‑fit parts.

This attachment is built for mechanics and home technicians who need a compact, reliable tool to remove pilot bearings without damaging housings or shafts. It’s not a complete slide hammer kit — it’s an engineered accessory that locks behind the bearing and transfers the slide hammer’s impact force into a controlled pulling action. With durable construction and a tapered two‑jaw design, the 27059 makes tight, press‑fit components accessible where direct grip is impossible.

How does the 27059 attach to my slide hammer?

The puller is threaded to accept common slide hammer rods and mates with a slide hammer shank to form a secure connection. You select the correct thread size and rod length for your particular slide hammer; once tightened the two jaws expand behind the bearing for a locked hold.

• Threaded connection compatible with standard slide hammer rods
• Designed to pair with OEMTOOLS 27033 slide hammer for optimal fit
• Requires correct rod size for secure engagement

What kind of parts can this attachment remove?

It’s intended for pilot bearings, small bushings, starter and generator bearings, and other press‑fit components that sit recessed in housings. The tapered jaws slide behind the component and, when pulled, distribute force evenly to avoid deforming thin walls or sealing surfaces.

• Pilot bearings and clutch‑related bushings
• Small starter and generator bearings
• Other press‑fit parts with enough gap for the jaws to engage

Will using the 27059 damage the bearing housing or shaft?

When used correctly with a slide hammer and the right rod, the 27059 minimizes the risk of scoring or bending because the jaws pull from behind the bore rather than clamping on the outer diameter. Careful alignment and steady pulls reduce shock to nearby components.

• Jaws engage inside the bore to avoid outer‑diameter damage
• Even pulling reduces chance of distorting thin housings
• Proper rod selection and setup are essential for safe removal

Who is this for? The OEMTOOLS 27059 is suited to professional technicians and DIYers who already own or plan to use a slide hammer and need a dependable accessory for stubborn pilot bearings and small press‑fit parts. If you service clutches, transmissions, starters or generators and want a low‑profile puller that fits into tight recesses, this attachment expands a slide hammer’s capability without replacing your existing tooling.
