slide hammer dent pulling question

[g-man]

The stud welder dent puller kit I own utilizes a knurled wheel that is offset from centerline creating a cam lock. The slide hammer stud jaw can grip several different sized pins as this design adjust itself. This type of jaw requires slight pulling pressure to maintain grip on the pin while sliding the weighted hammer back.
The jaw does thread on to the end of the slide hammer.

You can understand my description better by the photos.

I'm sure there are numerous types of gripping jaws but these IMO are the simplest to use and requires no threading like a collet type.

Any info on this thing? What does it adapt to on the slide hammer side? what is it called? Can I find it sold separately?

Open this link and scroll down to included parts (third row down and third item on said row). They are calling it "Mandrel for nail". These generally thread on to the slide hammer provided the same thread pitch is shared. Many thread adaptors are also available. Honestly, I would build my own. I have also seen a replacement "Posi-Cam" service kit available online. You would need to source a square bar and drill, tap and slot for the cam wheel.

Give these guys a call and see if they sell replacement parts.

in a pinch, you could probably bend the welded stud and use some sort of a hook on the slide hammer.
