This compact universal spreader tool is designed for spreading suspension strut clamp connections and ball joint mounting points during repair and maintenance procedures.
The tool is suitable for a wide range of clamped suspension and steering connections and can remain mounted during the repair process until reassembly is completed.
Its versatile functionality is achieved through a dual-sided design. One side features two flat surfaces for spreading applications starting from 5 mm. The opposite side uses a rounded profile with approximately 10 mm radius and a chamfered design that begins spreading from 3 mm.
