Actron

AIRCAT

Cornwell Quality Tools

Ingersoll Rand*

Mac Tools

Matco Tools*

Miller Electric Mfg. Co.

OTC*

Power Probe*

SK Hand Tools

*These companies have won a Top 5 Tool award every year since 2005.

Award winners are determined based on the number of times a company or product is mentioned by shop owners and technicians in the January 2013 through December 2013 issues of TechShop in the Top 5 Favorite Tools section.

Because the winners of the Top 5 Tools Award are picked by the readers of TechShop magazine, it is the only true equipment and tool award chosen by the ultimate customer — the end-user technician or shop owner. It is real recognition of a company’s exceptional brand strength, technological leadership and product innovation by the people who matter most — their customers.

TechShop’s devoted readers know the importance of innovative tools,” said Associate Publisher Sean Donohue. “They are immersed in the auto repair market and their feedback helps other technicians do their jobs more efficiently. Their opinions also fuel the new tools that will impact the market in the future.”

The winning companies will be presented a Top 5 Tool Award star trophy, and will also be announced in the December issue of TechShop to our 100,000+ repair shop recipients and tool and equipment distributors.

Wheel Bearing Adjustment Tools & Equipment

A wheel bearing that’s out of adjustment can reduce bearing life and can affect more than just the bearing. It’s important to adjust the wheel bearing endplay to the proper specifications. If the bearing set is adjusted too loose or too tight, it can cause the bearing to fail prematurely. There are a few types of assemblies, so using correct procedures and tools will ensure a comeback-free wheel bearing installation.
