Wheel grabber

May 7, 2002

Kiene Diesel’s Wheel Grabber is designed to remove seized wheels. To use the Wheel Grabber, pulling chains are placed into the wheel’s hand holes and hub socket is centered on the hub. An impact gun turns the forcing screw inward pressing against the hub. This action draws the pulling chains tight and provides a steady uniform pull until the seized wheel is freed, without damage to the wheel, hub or mechanic. The Wheel Grabber is effective on both steel and aluminum wheels.
