Catalog Number - 46026-FP

The 46026‑FP Ferrule Puller Tool™ is designed for the safe extraction of stainless‑steel ferrules that have become lodged inside HPLC column end fittings or instrument ports. When a ferrule separates from tubing and remains stuck inside a receiving port, removal can be difficult and careless attempts can permanently damage the fitting, leading to costly repairs or replacement of the column or instrument.

This tool features a reverse‑thread (counter‑threaded) extraction mechanism with sharp engagement edges that are engineered to bite into the inside of the ferrule. Once engaged, a controlled counter‑clockwise rotation allows the ferrule to be pulled out cleanly and safely, minimizing the risk of damage to the surrounding hardware.

By removing ferrules without damaging the receiving port, the Ferrule Puller Tool™ helps:

• Prevent costly damage to column end fittings and instrument ports

• Reduce downtime caused by stuck or broken ferrules

• Maintain proper sealing surfaces for future connections

Why Use a Ferrule Puller Tool™?

When a ferrule becomes detached from tubing and stuck inside a fitting or port:

• It cannot be removed with standard tools

• Improper removal can scratch or deform sealing surfaces

• Damage can result in leaks, poor connections, or permanent component failure

The Ferrule Puller Tool™ provides a controlled and reliable method to:

• Grip the ferrule internally

• Extract it safely without prying or drilling

• Preserve the integrity of high‑value components
