Q: What is the minimum and maximum spread?
A: It opens from ½ inch up to 9 inch outer diameter.
Q: What are the threaded holes used for?
A: The threaded holes allow bolts or attachments to be used to apply force (push or pull) when combined with pullers or hydraulic systems for component removal.
Q: What is "reach" or depth for this splitter?
A: The distance between the adjusting screws (reach) is approximately 6 inch, enabling engagement over that span in assemblies.
