Flywheel Special Stopper for Hyundai and Kia CRDi Engines

Overview

This is a purpose-built flywheel locking tool designed specifically for CRDi diesel engines in Hyundai and Kia vehicles. The stopper secures the flywheel in place, eliminating crankshaft rotation during critical fastening operations—a key requirement when removing or installing crankshaft pulleys, flywheel bolts, and clutch assemblies. Its robust metal construction and precision-machined engagement surface make it an essential addition to any shop servicing these powertrains. For shops working with a broader range of engine platforms, consider pairing this with other crankshaft locking solutions to cover your full service capacity.

Key Features

• Precision-machined serrated engagement block – Angled tooth profile prevents slippage and holds the flywheel securely without damage
• Stainless steel construction – Durable, corrosion-resistant metal with welded assembly for long-term reliability
• Adjustable mounting – Twin threaded bolts with washers and hex nuts allow precise positioning and clamping force control
• OEM-specification design – Engineered to match original equipment standards (OEM: 09231-2A100)
• Compatible with ASTA A-KOPS set – Integrates into established workshop systems and toolkit configurations

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High-margin specialist tool – CRDi engine servicing is a growing segment, particularly in European and Asian markets. This is a focused, non-commodity tool that commands premium positioning.
• Essential for diesel shops – Any shop with significant Hyundai/Kia diesel clientele cannot function without this. Creates a natural upsell opportunity for engine service packages.
• Reduced customer downtime – Enables fast, safe crankshaft work without improvisation, improving shop reputation and customer retention.
• Bulk order incentive – Distributor networks servicing multi-location chains can standardize on this tool across facilities, driving volume.
