Precise grip for holding and installing small circlips
In industry, as in manual trades, efficient processes are key factors. Assembly time = production time. Precision pliers save time. Professional tools like the Knipex 48 21 J01 precision circlip pliers enable circlips to be installed and removed from holes 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.
Extremely stable, inset tips: spring steel wire for long service life
The tips of the Knipex 48 21 J01 precision circlip pliers are hard to beat in terms of stability. Made from high-density spring steel wire, they are interlocked in the pliers and compressed using the cold forming process. The contact surfaces beneath the tips and the outwardly turned tips serve to hold the circlips firmly on the pliers.
Pliers head angled 90°: circlips can be easily accessed and held securely
The bolted joint of the Knipex 48 21 J01 precision circlip pliers can be set much more precisely than riveted joints. This results in a remarkably smooth joint movement with zero backlash. The pliers head is angled 90°, so that circlips can be reached with ease when access to the circlip is otherwise impossible.
