Park ToolHHP-3 - Home Mechanic Bearing Cup Press Tool

I used this to install some BB30 press fit bearings into a frame. Like others I tried the DIY approach using a long piece of thread and some washers, but I just couldn't get the bearings to go in straight. Then with each failed attempt I had to dismantle it all and punch out the misaligned bearing again! With the HHP-3 tool it literally worked first time! I'm very happy with my purchase, yes it's expensive but hopefully I'll get more use out of it in the future.One thing to note is that it didn't come with any drifts for installing the bearings. I already had some which came with a removal tool. I wonder if perhaps the 1 star review on here didn't realise you had to use drifts and was just using the washers?

Packaging - Carboard; much better for the environment.Product quality - Usual Park Tools quality.My use case - I am currently building my first road bike, it has PF30 shell and I needed to install my Praxis PF30 bottom bracket. I had read some indifferent reviews on this tool, however my opinion is that it is the perfect tool for the job. The universal drifts allowed me to press the BB into the shall with no drama. Thanks Park Tool.Overall opinion -

Good quality tool, does the job, easy to use. Not really much else to talk about.

I realize that this is little move than a threaded bar and two handles; but it does the job it is suppose to do. It makes replacing the bottom bracket a breeze.I realize that it is a bit expensive, but I am sure that will be forgotten in years to come when I am still using this tool.

Good quality too helped press in BB30 bearings with ease. Note this adapter does not come with the press cups you need to buy the adaptor for your bearing type.

....which was nice.Does the job. Not cheap though. In hind sight you could do a bit of research and get a threaded rod with some large washers and nuts. However the handles on this make the job unfiddly and pretty straight forward. I watched loads of videos that made this look easy and actually it was.

Title says it all really. I like Park Tools as a brand, but hot damn, £60+ for a simple tool that pushes two bearings into a frame?The tool is literally a screw shaft with two press couplers on each end with a handle. Come on, for £60+? It’s such a simple task, something half the price is just fine. It smells like profiteering.

works fine and well made

Great tool for installing bicycle headsets.

This worked really well, and is very easy to use. The high quality and simple design should last many lifetimes. I purchased it to install press fit Shimano bottom brackets into my mountain bikes.

Niente da eccepire: ottimo prodotto che fa egregiamente il suo lavoro e permette di montareovime ti centrali press-fit o calotte serie sterzo in modo preciso e accurato. Costa ma garantisce un risultato senza intoppi, soprattutto quando si ha a che fare con bici da molte migliaia di €...

Je recommande ce produit. Très simple d’utilisation, attention à ne pas trop presser le boîtier !
