Draper Expert 2 Stage Ball Joint Separator

Remove ball joints cleanly and efficiently with the Draper Expert 2 Stage Ball Joint Separator (N160). Built from drop forged carbon steel and designed for use on most cars and light commercial vehicles, this robust separator delivers the leverage and strength needed to tackle one of the most stubborn jobs in suspension and steering work.

Two Stage Design for Maximum Versatility

The defining feature of the N160 is its two stage design, which allows the tool to be repositioned and reapplied at different points during the separation process. This staged approach gives the mechanic greater control and adaptability when working with different ball joint sizes and configurations, making the N160 a genuinely versatile choice across a wide range of vehicles and suspension layouts.

Offset Lever for Superior Performance

The offset lever design is not simply a functional feature – it is an engineering advantage. By angling the lever away from the workpiece, the N160 delivers significantly improved mechanical leverage and clearance in tight areas, allowing effective force to be applied where a straight tool would struggle. With a maximum opening capacity of 56mm, the N160 accommodates the majority of ball joint and tie rod end sizes found on modern passenger cars and light commercial vehicles.

Drop Forged Carbon Steel Construction

The N160 is manufactured from drop forged carbon steel – a production process that aligns the grain structure of the metal for superior strength, toughness, and resistance to impact. The result is a tool that can withstand the considerable shock loads involved in ball joint separation without bending, cracking, or deforming. This is not a tool that will let you down mid-job.

Suitable for Most Cars and Light Commercial Vehicles

Whether you're working on a small hatchback or a larger van, the N160's two stage design and 56mm opening capacity make it suitable for the vast majority of vehicles encountered in everyday workshop or driveway use.

Why Choose the Draper Expert N160?

Ball joint separation is a job that demands a tool strong enough to cope with corroded, seized components and smart enough to work in confined suspension assemblies. The N160 delivers on both counts – the drop forged carbon steel construction handles the brute force side, while the two stage design and offset lever provide the finesse and access needed to get the job done cleanly and without damaging surrounding components. A dependable, professional-quality tool at an excellent price point.
