The separator is designed like a wood chisel, with the taper towards the bearing it applies minimum pressure to the back side of the separator and maximum pressure to the tapered side forcing the bearing to move while applying minimal pressure to the gear in back. things to look for in a good separator are hardened steel and a smooth taper like a wood chisel to reduce binding when forcing the separator in the gap. witch you will find nether in a HF brand.

A good bearing separator is the tool your looking for they come in many sizes.

Hope this helps.
