Bell 206 Driveshaft Coupling Grease Tool by Porutac

Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago

This tool is designed to apply an even, precise amount of grease to the splines in the tail rotor driveshaft couplings on the Bell 206 helicopter. Measurements were taken from the BHT service manual, but while the typical tool uses only one "face" this tool uses 4 faces. This both makes the tool much easier to use and keeps it perfectly aligned in the coupling, ensuring even coverage. The tool is simply inserted, rotated, and removed with any excess grease
The handle was generated using Neon22's "Customizable Profiled Handle" http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:923244
I recommend printing the tool standing upright with supports, some cleanup will be necessary but this seems to result in the nicest looking finished product.
