Product Notice | Design Improvement for Kimray Seat Removal Tool

Product Notice, Kimray Socket Style Seat Removal Tool

This product notice is to inform you that the Seat Removal Tool will now be socket-style rather than T-handle.

The current Seat Removal Tools for Regulators, Low Pressure Control Valves, and Dump Valves are being updated to socket-style design.

Socket-style tools provide a better experience for users during disassembly and assembly of Kimray regulators and dump valves.

There are two primary reasons for this update:

  1. This design allows coupling with different tools to generate the proper leverage and force required for disassembly.
     
  2. The socket-style tool promotes the use of a calibrated torque wrench, which can be used to target torque specifications during the assembly process.
