XLC TO-CA04 Cassette Lockring Tool

Take control of your bicycle´s drivetrain maintenance with the XLC TO-CA04 Cassette Lockring Tool, an essential addition to any home or professional workshop. Engineered for precision and durability, this tool is your key to performing seamless cassette removal and installation, allowing you to clean, upgrade, or replace your bike´s gearing with confidence and ease. Designed for the most common drivetrain systems, the TO-CA04 ensures you can keep your bike running smoothly, shift crisply, and extend the life of your valuable components.

The primary benefit of the XLC TO-CA04 is its perfect compatibility and secure engagement. It is specifically designed to fit Shimano HG (Hyperglide) freewheel cassettes and other compatible splined lockrings, which represent a vast majority of modern bicycles. This precise fit prevents the tool from slipping under torque, protecting both the cassette lockring and your hub from damage. By using the correct tool, you avoid the costly mistakes and frustration that come from using improper or makeshift solutions. Its robust construction ensures it can handle the high torque required to break free stubborn lockrings, making it a reliable partner for countless maintenance sessions.

This specialized tool is a cornerstone of any comprehensive transmission service. While performing a full drivetrain overhaul, from servicing the bottom bracket to cleaning the chain, having the right tool for each component is critical. The TO-CA04´s splined design is precisely matched to cassette lockrings, ensuring a secure fit that prevents slippage, unlike multi-tools or improperly sized bottom bracket tools that can cause damage. Its versatility is a standout feature, offering two convenient drive options. You can use a standard 21 mm wrench or, for better leverage and control, a 1/2" drive ratchet, a common item in any mechanic´s toolbox. This flexibility ensures you can apply steady, even pressure for both removal and proper torque-spec installation.
