RPM Mega Bearing Blaster

RPM Mega Bearing Blaster

RPM introduce the Mega Bearing Blaster for ball races with an inner diameter of up to 32mm. Ideal for the bearings used in engines, large-scale vehicles and more, the tool builds on the original RPM Bearing Blaster. To clean or re-lube bearings simply remove their outer shields, place the bearing on the centre cone of the base and replace the top. Then take a can of cleaner or lubricant, slip the spray tube in the top of the Mega Bearing Blaster, hold it down and give it a blast. The tool isolates the bearing in a contained environment, making it the safest way to forcefully blast debris from your bearings by preventing back-splash of cleaners and lubricants from hitting your hands and/or face. The RPM Mega Bearing Blaster works on bearings with a minimum inside diameter of 3/16” (5mm) and a maximum outside diameter of 1.25” (32mm).
