Anyone have issues with this thing? The bearing always gets stuck on the removal tool. It’s frustrating. Any advice

I bought one, and the carabiner broke almost immediately. The spring dug straight through the plastic, there was no fix. I was able to warranty through Duncan and it broke again. Sorry you’re having issues with it. I’ve opted for a yyf tool when I need one, and if I’m really desperate (or messing with A or D bearings) pliers.

try a shaft end of a 1/4" drill bit. no risk of crushing damage
