KNS Performance Parts primary clutch puller for Can-Am 12mm bolt — Made in USA, heavy-duty heat-treated steel

KNS Performance Parts heavy-duty primary clutch puller is a USA-made, tool-grade steel extractor engineered to remove Can-Am primary clutches (12mm bolt) safely and reliably.

Built in the United States from hardened, heat-treated alloy steel and finished to resist corrosion, this puller is designed as a direct-fit replacement for part numbers like 529-035-746 and PCP-16. It supports a wide range of Can-Am models — including Commander, Outlander, Renegade, Defender, and Maverick series across 330–1000cc platforms — and is intended for technicians, UTV owners, and mechanics who need a robust, repeatable tool for clutch service.

Which Can-Am models and years will this puller work with?

This puller fits Can-Am UTVs and ATVs that use a 12mm primary clutch bolt. It is compatible across multiple model families and engine sizes where the factory puller specification matches.

• Compatible with Commander, Outlander, Renegade, Defender, and Maverick models
• Supports engine ranges: 330, 400, 450, 500, 570, 800, 850, 1000, and R Max variants
• Replaces OEM numbers such as 529-035-746 and aftermarket PCP-16

How is the construction different from cheaper pullers?

KNS Performance uses American tool-grade steel, then heat-treats and hardens the component to increase strength and fatigue resistance. The part receives a protective coating to reduce surface corrosion, which extends usable life compared with untreated imports.

• Made from hardened, tool-grade American steel for higher tensile strength
• Heat-treated and coated to reduce rust and wear during repeated use
• Manufactured to exceed standard factory puller specifications for durability

What are the practical benefits when I use this puller in the shop?

Using a correctly sized, hardened puller reduces the chance of damaging the clutch spline, the bolt, or surrounding components during removal. It provides consistent leverage and alignment so technicians can work faster and with more confidence.

• Minimizes risk of damaging clutch faces, splines, or bolt heads
• Provides repeatable, stable extraction for quicker service intervals
• Sturdy construction tolerates heavy use in professional settings

How do I spot counterfeit or lower-quality copies?

Because similar-looking tools are now produced overseas, check for clear markings and origin claims: authentic KNS Performance pullers state Made in the USA and are sold by authorized sellers. Differences often appear in finish, hardness, and fitment accuracy.

• Look for "Made in the USA" stamping and consistent machining quality
• Avoid listings without origin details or with vague imagery
• Verify seller reputation and review photos that show fitment on Can-Am clutches

Who is this for: This puller is aimed at owners and technicians who service Can-Am vehicles and need a dependable, long-lasting extraction tool. It's particularly suited for small repair shops, UTV enthusiasts who perform regular maintenance, and anyone replacing or inspecting primary clutches who wants a US-manufactured tool that withstands repeated professional use.

Note: Always follow vehicle manufacturer service procedures and safety precautions when removing or installing clutches. KNS Performance recommends using the proper torque and alignment tools alongside this puller.
