StrutTamer
26 May 1999
Owatonna, MN - May 1999 - OTC's new Patent Pending StrutTamer for MacPherson Strut Springs is simply the safest, most effective compressor for handling virtually any 2 1/2" to 10" diameter, straight, conical or offset spring up to 24" long. To accommodate the variety of springs, the No. 6070 features four specially designed adjustable clamping arms that are attached to ball joints, making it truly a universal tool! For added safety, the StrutTamers exclusive four-point locking jaws securely hold the spring in place for optimum safety. To keep the strut assembly straight during compression, OTC's exclusive adjustable double-lead center screw keeps the strut and spring aligned - mo matter what shape the spring is. The double-lead screw also compresses the spring faster and easier than any comparable model down to 2 1/2". Mounting the StrutTamer to a workbench or to the wall is quick and easy. That's because there's no special mounting hardware! Or, you can choose the option StrutTamer stand, No. 6071. It features a one-piece welded steel frame construction with a handle, and two wheels that allow the technician to easily tilt the stand back and move the entire unit to the work area. To keep it firmly in place during compression, the wheels lift off the floor, and four no-slip rubber pads keep the stand firmly in place during operation.
