A seat removal tool is disclosed for removing valve seats. A seat removal tool having a main rod, actuator rod within the main rod that actuates to cause radially expandable extraction segments to transition between an expanded position and a contracted position. When using the seat removal tool to remove a valve seat, portions of the radially expandable extraction segments may pass through a seat while the valve seat removal tool is in a contracted position. Thereafter, the seat removal tool may transition from the contracted position to an extended position, which grabs the seat. While in the expanded position, the seat removal tool may pull the valve seat from the passage.

A faucet cartridge removal tool that limits lateral movement of the tool and faucet cartridge during faucet cartridge removal.

An apparatus and method for valve cartridge extraction from a valve assembly, wherein the assembly includes a valve member body, a cartridge, and a valve cartridge extraction (VCE) tool comprising at least one pin disposed on the upper surface of the VCE tool. During cartridge removal, the VCE tool is uncoupled from the valve member body and is coupled to the cartridge with the at least one pin. The cartridge is rotated with the coupled VCE tool to assist in cartridge removal. The valve assembly may also include a hood covering the VCE tool.

A release tool for use with a push-fit valve includes a fixed member and a movable member. The fixed member includes: a central portion defining a base aperture, the central portion being rotatably fixed relative to the valve when a valve lever base is received in the base aperture; and a guiding arm extending from a side of the central portion so as to extend along a side of a valve body. The movable member defines: a conduit aperture configured for a conduit to extend therethrough during use; and a guiding aperture receiving the guiding arm of the fixed member. To disconnect the conduit from the valve, the movable member is moved from the first position to the second position to push the release collar inwardly into the valve, causing a grab ring of the valve to release the conduit. The movable member is selectively retained in the second position.

A valvetrain service tool for an automobile engine comprises a bracket adapted to be removably mounted onto a structural member of an engine, and a pin slidably supported within the bracket, wherein, the pin is slidable between a first position and a second position, further wherein, when the pin is moved from the first position to the second position, the pin engages a cam sprocket of the engine to support the cam sprocket and allow service to be performed to the valvetrain of the engine without removing the cam sprocket.

A top entry ball valve a pipeline mainly used in Oil and Gas Industry, Chemical and pharmaceutical Industries. The system allows for replacing all the ball valve components and seals while the valve body is still in the pipeline. The ball valve assembly has four main components: the body, gearbox, ball, and seats. Disassembly and reassembly may be performed utilizing various tools to allow removal and reinstallation of the ball, seats, seals, or other components therein without the need to remove the ball valve assembly from a pipeline.

According to one aspect, a fluid control system is provided comprising a servicing tool set and at least one valve assembly comprising an actuator and a valve operationally engageable therewith; each valve comprising a valve body; each actuator comprising an actuator body having an upper base and side walls; wherein each actuator body is engageable with a valve body, and wherein the system is configured to allow: engaging the servicing tool set with an actuator and subsequently applying torque to an actuator body engaged with a valve body and thereby disengaging the actuator body from the valve body; the at least one valve assembly comprising at least one Normally Closed (NC) valve; wherein the NC valve is configured to allow activating an actuator engaged therewith with pressurized fluid and thereby opening the NC valve, wherein the actuator comprises a nipple and the servicing tool set comprises a ratchet and at least one socket engageable with the actuator body, and wherein the at least one socket is sized and shaped to accommodate the nipple, and wherein the servicing tool set is further configured to allow operationally coupling the pressurized fluid to the actuator.
