The sleeves cover a wide range of inner and outer diameters in precise 2 mm increments, while the hardened spindles and nuts provide reliable axial force for controlled extraction and installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat components are included and what sizes do they cover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit contains 20 stepped press sleeves, four pulling spindles with matching nuts and two double-sided press plates. Sleeve inner diameters range from 34 mm to 72 mm and outer diameters from 44 mm to 82 mm, both in 2 mm steps, so most common bushings and bearings are supported.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20 press sleeves, 90 mm depth, I.D. 34–72 mm (2 mm steps)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eO.D. coverage 44–82 mm across the stepped sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour spindles: M10, M12, M14, M16 — 450 mm length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo double-ended press plates for even load distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the kit prevent damage during removal and installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing stepped sleeves and matching press plates spreads force evenly around the component, reducing the risk of distorting housings or crushing bearings.
