A tool for assisting in the installation and/or removal of clips. The tool can include a handle and a tool head attached to the handle. The tool head includes a clip abutment portion having at least one surface operable to substantially abut at least a portion of a clip. A magnet in the tool head is configured to retain the clip proximate to the clip abutment portion such that a user can utilize a tool to apply a clip to an article. The tool head can also include a clip extrication element to facilitate removal of installed clips.

An extracting tool for extracting a metal piece located in an aerodynamic stream of a turbomachine, such as a flow splitter nose, includes a rod; a first stop located at a distal end of the rod and provided with a claw for bearing against a first edge of the metal piece; a gripping member translationally mounted to the rod and including a first projecting portion arranged to receive a second, opposite edge of the metal piece; a tightening mechanism configured to keep the gripping member bearing against the metal piece and the first stop.

A setting tool system includes a housing. The housing includes a first conduit that receives one or more anchoring systems at a first end, and a second conduit at least partially separated from the first conduit with an interior wall. The second conduit includes a weighted shaft that moves freely within the length of the second conduit. The first and second conduits merge at a second end opposite the first end. The housing also includes a head having an opening at the second end. Each of the one or more anchoring systems inserted at the first end are individually received at the opening at the second end. Each anchoring system contacts the weighted shaft at a top surface, and contacts an external surface at a bottom surface. Each of the one or more anchoring systems are individually fastened via the weighted shaft to the external surface.

A locking pin tool to facilitate removal and/or installation of locking pins of a well head assembly includes an elongated shaft and a jaw assembly configured for engaging an end of a locking pin. A hammer body is mounted on the shaft and is movable along the shaft. A hammer stop provided on the shaft engages the hammer body to absorb a striking force from the hammer body as the hammer body is moved along the shaft towards the hammer stop. By moving the hammer body along the shaft, the hammer strikes the hammer stop to impart a force on the locking pin to facilitate removal or installation of the locking pin.

A security system for fasteners includes a plug configured to be received by a fastener so that the fastener cannot be manipulated by a tool in the usual manner. A magnetic insertion tool may be used to seat the plug. A removal tool includes an extraction head configured to mate with the plug so that the plug can be removed when it is necessary or desirable to manipulate the fastener. A slide hammer assembly may provide the necessary force to unseat the plug.
