  • Publication number: 20180117752
    Abstract: A pry bar has an elongated body with a coupler and a striking face at opposite ends. The coupler includes a receiver opening to receive a mounting end of a replaceable head. The coupler is operable to lock or unlock the replaceable head in the elongated body. The coupler may include a broached sleeve having ball bearings in radial openings that may be moved into engagement with the mounting end of the replaceable head. A movable sleeve is mounted on the broached sleeve to engage the ball bearings as the movable sleeve is moved. A spring on the broached sleeve urges the movable sleeve to the locked position. A retainer collar on the broached sleeve keeps the movable sleeve on the broached sleeve. A coupler may instead have a threaded collar for operating a collet sleeve. A set of replaceable heads may be provided.
