2-Year Limited Warranty*
This warranty covers all moving parts against defects in workmanship, material as well and WEAR! **
* Warranty does not cover tools which have been damaged due to misuse, such as: incorrect installation, failure to follow the instructions that are provided with your product, or machine crashes due to improper setup, or faulty programming.
** For EZ-Puller, warranty includes gripper arms, pivot pins, gripper pins, lifters, urethane springs and material grippers.
Mounting
It is important that you are familiar with the machine your EZ-Puller will be used in. If the machine has a wedge lock mounting system for holding square tooling, the body of the bar puller may cover the outboard tightening bolt. If this is the case, the tool will need to be moved away from the center of the turret to access that bolt. Many times, this will cause interference with the way covers of the machine. If this is the case, the better mounting option is the 1.000″ round mounting, either standard or low profile. With this option, the tool will be held in an I.D. tool holder. Please look at the pdf diagrams below of mounting options before ordering.

EZ-Puller: The American-Made Bar Puller That Fits Your CNC Lathe
The EZ-Puller is a CNC lathe bar puller built for production shops that need to reduce manual bar advancement without investing in a bar feeder. It’s assembled to order, priced at $735, and ships the same day. If you’re running 50 or more parts per bar on a Haas, Okuma, Mazak, Doosan, or similar turning center, this tool is designed for your setup.
How the EZ-Puller Works
The EZ-Puller body is machined from solid steel. The grip mechanism uses urethane springs rather than the metal grippers found on most competing bar pullers. Urethane maintains a consistent clamping force across thousands of cycles and resists degradation from coolant and chips. Metal grippers lose tension over time and can fail mid-cycle; the urethane design eliminates that failure mode.
The EZ-Puller ships with the 95A heavy-duty spring installed, which handles steel and stainless steel. Swap to the 80A for aluminum and general applications, or the 70A for thin-wall or light-duty material. Note that the 70A has a maximum pull speed of 100 IPM. Each model includes mounting bar options in square, round, and low-profile configurations to fit virtually every CNC lathe on the market.
Key Features of EZ-Puller
The EZ-Puller mounts directly in a standard lathe tool block, no special fixturing or machine modification required. Here’s what the design includes:
- Urethane springs. The internal polymer mechanism resists severe coolant degradation and sharp metal chips.
- Adjustable grip. Swap urethane springs for ones that match your material. The 95A handles steel and stainless, 80A covers aluminum and general use, and 70A works for light-duty or thin-wall applications.
- Compact profile. The small physical footprint prevents dangerous interference with adjacent cutting tools during complex turning cycles.
- Consistent grip across bar variations. The urethane springs conform to minor diameter variations in bar stock without manual adjustment between parts.
Using EZ-Puller to Maximize Efficiency
Manual bar advancement requires stopping the spindle and pulling stock by hand, every single part, every cycle. For a shop running 100 parts per bar, that’s 30 to 60+ seconds of lost time per part, which can add up to an hour or more per shift. With bar advancement handled automatically, machinists can monitor multiple lathes simultaneously and run unattended cycles.
EZ-Puller: FAQs
What materials can the EZ-Puller handle? The EZ-Puller handles steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, brass, copper, and industrial plastics. Spring durometer selection determines the grip force applied; the urethane contact points are designed to pull without marking the bar surface under normal operating conditions.
How do I adjust the gripping pressure? Operators swap the internal urethane springs to change the physical tension. Lighter durometers protect thin-walled tubing, while heavier springs handle dense, solid metal rods.
Does the puller require special programming? The device operates using standard lathe G-code commands. Programmers simply direct the turret to the proper Z-axis coordinate to engage the material, open the chuck, pull to length, and close the chuck.
The EZ-Puller is in stock, assembled to your machine’s specs, and ships the same day. At $735, the payback on a production run is immediate. Contact Accudyne Products to get configured for your machine, or call if you’d rather talk through your setup first.
