  • 2x tube puller / inserter 

Easy.

Two size tube puller. Easy to remove or insert 7 to 9 pin tubes with this new tube puller (Rimlock, Noval, B7G, B9A). This tool helps in removing those difficult to reach vacuum tubes, small bulbs, which may be recessed or placed inside an amplifier, radio or any kind of electronic equipment.

 

Simple.

Just squeeze the ball, put the sucker over the tube. Now lose the ball and by the extra vacuum obtained, you can easily extract the tube in a professional manner. This is a huge time saver. A very handy tool for vintage radio, amplifier and other electronics repair. By using this tube puller , the technician is not only protected from possible burns and high voltages, but it is a convenient method for extracting tubes without bending the pins.

For inserting: press this item on the tube, push the tube in his socket and then squeeze to release the inserter.

 

Safe.

This special designed tube extractor also works much better than gloves or a cloth, not only in preserving the fragile silkscreen lettering and graphics on your rare and expensive tubes, but also allows you to remove the tubes while they are still hot. Even in ‘standby’, tube pins are sometimes still under dangerous high-voltages, but with this special silicone rubber you are always safe.

When the tube is removed, it remains firmly held in the puller due to the extra vacuum created with the oval squeeze ball. The tube can therefore be expeditiously removed from the socket without danger of the expensive tube dropping from the puller after removal.

 

                                                                    

 Pro’s

Glass breaking: oil from your skin can cause differential expansion or contraction of the glass making it break. Now you can protect your hand from the glass breaking if the tube is a bit stubborn and does not want to part company with the socket.

Tube rolling: tube rolling is the process of trying out a number of tubes in the same spot in an amplifier and selecting the one that sounds best to you. So this tool can be very helpful in optimizing the tone of the amplifier. Tube rolling can give new life to an ordinary sounding amplifier.

Time saver: no more waiting until they are cool to the touch to remove them.

Protection: this red silicone rubber tool gives you a nice protective insulated covering to easily and gently grab the glass so you can safely extract it in a professional manner.

Damage: please don’t use something like needle-nose pliers, they will damage or destroy the tube. Do not rock or jiggle the tubes in their sockets; the socket sprongs and tubes may be damaged. Pull it straight out with this flashy red tube puller.

Design: the main object in this design and invention is to provide a small and handy tube puller, one hand operated, which allows in most cases the removal of tubes from their small recessed sockets without first removing the chassis from the radio or amplifier cabinet.
