Circlip Pliers

For internal circlips in bore holes

Securely grip, dismantle and fit internal circlips

Accurate and stable, forged tips with a diameter of 2.3 mm

The shape and quality of the pliers tips are decisive when fitting and removing circlips. The tips of circlip pliers grip into the installation holes of the circlips. These, however, offer the tips of the pliers little room for manoeuvre. The tips of the pliers must overcome the high ring tension – without overstretching the circlips - and hold the circlip securely after removal or before insertion. This places high demands on the accuracy and stability of the pliers tips, which is why with the Knipex 44 11 J3, the handle and tips are forged in one piece, which produces correspondingly high durability. The very accurately twisted tips are also machined so they slant inwards slightly. As a result of this angle, the circlips are prevented from springing off the tips.

Reinforced, measured manual force precisely into the installation holes

With pliers, the absolute amount of force that reaches the component is one just one of many parameters. It is specifically important with regard to installation work that the manual force can be applied to the component in an accurate, well-measured manner. This applies especially to circlips, because they are under higher tension during fitting and removal than when already fitted. Thanks to quality machining, balanced tool geometry and precise joint, manual force reaches the circlip in a manner that enables the user to work in the best way with these pliers: accurately, and gentle on hands.

Reach circlips well, grip and hold them accurately

Reliable circlip pliers like the Knipex 44 11 J3 noticeably simplify work. They have very slim working tips with a diameter of 2.3 mm. They sit comfortably in the hand, can be positioned accurately in the circlip installation holes and hold the circlips firmly. The first time you use them, you will see that working with quality circlips pliers saves a great deal of time. Maybe you will recall earlier attempts to extract a circlip from a drilled hole using makeshift tools. Having to search for a circlip that has sprung off the tips of poorly machined circlip pliers can also take a long time. With the Knipex 44 11 J3, every circlip and every hand movement sits properly.
