The Pop-It tool flange spreader is used for both flange spreading and equipment lifting, making it the most versatile tool on the market used in these applications.
The Pop-It flange spreader takes the place of a hammer and wedge and can spread or lift 10,000 pounds up to 5.5 inches with 120 pounds of force at the ratchet handle.
It’s lightweight, compact, and portable and holds its spread without drifting.
The Pop-it Tool flange spreader can be used in a multitude of industry applications such as gasket replacement, blinding, drive shimming, and valve service.
The Pop-It Tool also works well when lifting equipment for alignment work, removing gears or impellers from shafts.
HD-0535
The HD0535 “Heavy Duty” Pop-it Tool flange spreader is the next step up from the 95-525 Pop it tool flange spreader.
It is designed to spread larger and thicker flanges than what the original pop it can handle.
The HD0535 is particularly effective when spreading RTJ type flanges or other large flanges with a significant gap.
The HD0535 requires a 1/2” in gap to insert the toes and creates up to 30,000 pounds (13,607.7 kg.) of spreading force.
