ABN Chain Breaker Tool Kit with Storage Case - 13 Piece Rivet and Roller Chain Link Removal Tool for 35 to 630 Motorcycle, Bike, ATV Chains

Overall it did everything it was supposed to do. I'd probably give it 4.5 stars since the metal may not be the highest quality, but it did do everything I needed to take off the old chain and put a new one on. It is true there is no instruction manual, but I honestly think most people would do better watching one of the many you tube videos available how to use this tool anyway. You'll hear two different views when it comes to breaking the chain. Some say grind it down so you can push out the link easier. Some say don't grind it down so the tool will fit over the link you're trying to push out. I ground it down so I could push it right out, which it did. This is the time to be careful though. A lot of people report the metal pin breaking. I took the extra few minutes to ensure the push pin was exactly lined up with the link and slowly pushed the pin a little at a time to make sure the pin was pushing the link out. In other words, only have the push pin on the link being pushed out and not any other part of the chain. If it's lined up correctly, there should be a much better chance the pin won't break. Once you know it is starting to push the link out, it is easy to line the push pin into the indented hole and push it the rest of the way out. As for putting on the master link, one video had a good idea of using a caliper to measure the distance (thickness) of a regular link. As you use the tool to install the new link on, just squeeze it a little at a time to get it to the same thickness as the regular links. You don't want to over-tighten the master link. If you feel this tool is something you may only use a handful of times in your life, it certainly does the trick.

I purchased this breaker tool for use on a motorcycle build, for 530 chain. I was very pleased when it arrived, as the case is well-made, and holds all of the attachments securely. The main tool itself is very sturdy, and is made out of solid steel. I was initially worried about buying such an inexpensive kit, because very often, the quality of these kits is subpar, but I am happy to say that is not the case with this kit. There are multiple anvil and punch options included, and all of them work well, even on large 530 section motorcycle chain. Punching out a link was easy, but I would advise grinding the head off the pin you are punching out prior to beginning. This tool could probably exert enough force to push the pin through without grinding, but the process is much simpler if you remove the head first, and will increase the life of your tool. I was pleasantly surprised that the tool was able to successfully peen the head of the pin to secure it into the chain - many of the cheaper tools will break, or be unable to exert enough force to successfully round the pin over. Just take it slow with this step, and check your progress incrementally, and it will do the job! Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase, and plan to keep it in my emergency kit on the bike, in case a chain breaks on the road.

I don't know who is leaving positive reviews here for this junk! I *might* work for a bicycle or moped chain, but as an experienced mechanic, I had a terrible time with this thing. It failed in 4 different ways and was unable to do the job. Black steel is supposed to denote tool-grade-8 steel. The blackness of these parts comes from paint, not forging. Matter of fact, a spark test of the components revealed that they are a mild-non-hardable steel. Your chain components are going to be forged and hardened, so when trying to flare the rivet, the tool crumbles before the flare can be made. The "C" portion of this tool (which commonly fails with cheap versions of this tool) is actually meaty and up to the job. However, the tooling bits are mild steel and simply crumble. When braking or cutting the chain, I use an angle grinder to flatten the pins and make it easier for the tool. After only 3 pressed pins, my pressing bit was visibly deformed. Also, to do a motorcycle chain, one must remove the spring, as it prevents the pin driver from pressing far enough through to completely press out the pin. The tool survived the process of seating the master link. However, when trying to flare the hardened pins with the anvil and rivet tool, you can see that the tip of riveting tool simply crumbled and took on the shape of the pin. When pressed further, the bolt stripped. I happened to have a hardened bolt that fit the thread and quickly ground a flaring tip onto it. At this point the weak collar simply snapped off before the pin was able to be pressed into the .55mm shape specified. Bottom line, this is not a tool. It'a a look-alike. And its going back.

Ok under 25 bucks, so what do you expect. It did get the job done. Very easy to use, small and compact, works on most chains. So as a chain breaker it is perfect, you don't need much force to break the chain. Now peeing rivets that where the tool has it's weakness, it's not made from good materials, so it will bend. But it got the job done. I won't need it for another couple of years. I'll just buy another one.

It bends easily. I was fairly careful with it. Grinded rivets off old chain. These moto chains gotta be stout to bend cast. I wish I had the doe to buy the billet chain tool. It's probably trash after just 1 use. I couldn't even get to the middle of the tolerance with the new rivet. 0.3- 0.7.

Worked perfectly for my job. This tool will accomplish your chain replacement job, if you are careful. I just replaced my chain using this tool about a month ago. I ground down one of the rivet heads on the old chain then popped it apart using this chain breaker. It came apart without any problems. Then, got the new chain on and riveted it together. Part of the success was being meticulous. Tighten it up, back it off and double check, and repeating until perfect. You don't want the rivet to be too tight or too loose, you pretty much only have one go at it, so again, back it off and double check in doubt. All in all I was happy with the tool. No instructions, but you can look up online how to use a chain breaker/riveter tool. It came in a nice plastic box to keep all the little parts organized. Even the threads on the tool came pre-lubricated. I can see how the tool could be damaged if you're not extra careful. As long as you're diligent and double check your work, the little extra time spent goes a long way. If you need to change more than 1 chain a year, I might recommend spending the little extra money. There's always a right tool for a job. I had to do my chain but didn't seem like it was necessary to spend $100+ on a tool I would rarely use. This one worked just fine. 100+ miles already on my new chain. Oh, and for what it's worth, I'm usually pretty busy and don't leave reviews unless it was a great product worth mentioning.

There's more then one way to skin a cat! Use your head, TAKE YOUR TIME! Adjust your plans as you go. This is not a simple process (was not for me at least). The Oring's within the chain I was riveting were making it impossible to rivet the chain. They were not allowing me to press the pin because they were creating a "spring effect" and when I "cranked down" on the bolt to begin the pressing process, the pin would just push through the "slots" (I'm trying my best to describe lol) anyhow.. I solved the problem by clamping the link with locking C-clamps which solved the "spring effect". Once one side was compressed/ riveted enough, I no longer needed the clamp for the other side. I'm sure there are other ways.. But this was the way i successfully did mine. I highly advise against being bruite with this tool. It doesn't feel very strong. I don't think it's because of design flaw but rather due to the amount of force that needs to be applied on such narrow pins. The length of the pins & the amount of force required will of course be susceptible to be bent or snapped. Take your time & really look closely at what you are doing. Your life's on the line for crying out loud 🙂 good luck ✌️

Worked well for breaking chains, but riveting the new pins, not so much. I used my Dremel with a carbide bit to grind the tops of my old chain off, and it pushed pins out just fine. Same thing with cutting my new chain to length. When it came to riveting and flaring the pins on my new chain, it pressed the plate on, and did most of the flaring job before the riveting pin bent inside the tool. In summary, it will get most of the job done, but if you want your pins to be perfectly flared, or multiple uses, spend the extra $$$ on a MotionPro chain tool. P.S. ZERO instructions are included, so you will have to search YouTube to find a chain tool assembly/how to use video if this is your first time.

Lo compre como regalo, pero en general se ve economico, un poco resistente, tal vez para trabajos sencillos y en casa solamente

Pins are weak and bend easily but for price it’s ok

My $180 Name brand one snapped so I needed a new one. I decided to try this one as Amazon has the best return policy. I am not disappointed, it works very well on the 3 different chain sizes I have, one being a 630 heavy duty. It seems just as solid as the more expensive one. Shipping was fast as usual, everything is very secure in the plastic case. There are no instructions but there is a video on YouTube using this exact kit.

Cumple con lo esperado, buena relación con calidad precio
