USA warehouse now open. Our USA warehouse is now open! Low cost shipping and an ever growing variety make ordering from the US warehouse even better value!
standard size, 1/4-32. I have one it works well. But i prefer the cut delrin ones you put in the crankcase over this model. Still has a possibility of piston damage. You can use it on glow.
cet outil est utile pour bloque le piston dans un moteur thermique
il se vis en lieu et place de la bougie et garde le piston au poin mort bas pour permettre de visser ou devisser le volant moteur, l ambrayage ou tout ce qui se monte en sortie du vilbrequin
sorry but y can explain it in English
Screws into the head of your 'nitro' engine and stops the piston form reaching the top so you can undo or do up bold that are on the crank. Saftly. without damaging things.
Mark as a mechanic I agree with you but I think this tool is not for lock the crank, instead I think is great for discover where the maximum stroke of the piston is reached. However for making works on the engine where the crank is not to be forced it may work (by example stopping the piston while setting up the valves of a 4S Glow engine)
I have used another brand for 25 years to lock engine for installing clutches on heli's and props on planes. Never had a problem with it. Like all tools you must use it with respect and know when to quit tightening. I have never damaged a piston yet and have took many heads off to see. When it comes in I am going to order one. Looks like possible nylon tip andd mine is aluminum. Also I paid $30 US Dollars 25 years ago. Really good value for money. WAy to go HK
HaHa Reminds me of hollywood court case where one expert says he dun it and the other expert says he didn't dun it. Just like here, one expert says for gas and the other says its for glow! So, what is the final conclusion? Gas OR Glow? Or Both?
small I purchased this from the gas engine menu thinking it would fit normal a spark plug in a motorcycle or gas engine. threads are 1/4 inch glow plug threads.

It makes me sure the piston is down. Cheap and easy.
