Securely grip, dismantle and fit internal circlips
Accurate and stable due to forged tips
The tips of circlip pliers are crucial when working with circlips. These grip into the installation holes of the circlips, which offer the tips of the pliers only little friction surface. The tips must be able to overcome the high ring tension and hold the circlip securely after removal or before insertion. These high requirements on the accuracy and stability of the pliers tips are met by the Knipex 44 21 J01. The handle and tips are forged in one piece, which produces correspondingly high durability. The tips are additionally very accurately machined, are twisted and slant inwards slightly, which prevents the circlips from springing off the tips.
Reinforced, measured manual force precisely into the installation holes
With pliers, the measurable force that reaches the component is just one of many parameters that contributes to their benefits. Of prime importance is that the manual force is applied to the component in an accurate, well-measured manner. This applies especially to pliers for circlips, because the circlips are subjected to bending pressure when fitted and removed. Thanks to quality machining, balanced tool geometry and precise joint, manual force reaches the circlip on the Knipex 44 21 J01 in a manner that enables the user to work in the best way: accurately, and gentle on hands.
Reach circlips well, grip and hold them accurately
Reliable circlip pliers like the Knipex 44 21 J01 noticeably simplify work. They have very slim working tips. They sit comfortably in the hand, can be positioned accurately in the circlip installation holes and hold the circlips firmly. Working with first-class circlips pliers saves a great deal of time, as anyone who has tried to extract a circlip from a drilled hole using makeshift tools will know. Having to search the workshop for a circlip that has sprung off because the tips of poorly machined circlip pliers have failed to hold it well can take a long time. With the Knipex 44 21 J01, every circlip and every hand movement sits properly.
