Precise grip for holding and installing circlips on shafts
In industry, as in manual trades, economically efficient work processes are key to a company's success. Assembly time = production time. Precision pliers save time. Thus, profits can increase through the use of superior tools. Professional tools like the Knipex 49 11 A2 precision circlip pliers enable circlips to be installed and removed from shafts in the shortest possible time. Every step works because the extremely stable, cold-formed tips immediately grip the mounting holes of the circlip and hold the circlips securely on the pliers without twisting. Precise working practices save time.
Extremely stable, inset tips: spring steel wire for long service life
Typical applications for precision circlip pliers 49 11 A2: repairs to agricultural equipment or operations in industrial mass production. Made from high-density, smooth spring steel wire (piano wire) and compressed using the cold forming process, the tips are hard to beat in terms of stability, making them ideal for tasks like this.
Bolted, zero backlash joint for delicate, precision work
Bolted joints like that of the Knipex 49 11 A2 precision circlip pliers can be set much more precisely than riveted joints. The bolted joint results in a very smooth movement with zero backlash. This is particularly useful not just in confined installation situations and when working with small circlips. Manual force can be excellently controlled.
