Precise grip for holding and installing circlips even in confined spaces

Repair and assembly situations where circlips are partially covered present special challenges for mechanics. Professional pliers, angled 90° in front, like the Knipex 49 21 A01 enable even difficult-to-reach 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. Precise working practices save time.

Extremely stable, inset tips: spring steel wire for long service life

The Knipex 49 21 A01 precision circlip pliers are used to remove circlips that have become stuck tight during engine and gearbox overhauls or to fit circlips in industrial mass production lines. Particularly durable pliers tips are indispensable for professional applications of this kind. Their tips of these pliers offer almost unbeatable stability.

Pliers head angled 90°: circlips can be easily accessed and held securely

The pliers head of the Knipex 49 21 A01 precision circlip pliers is angled 90°. This means that circlips can be reached with ease when vertical access is impossible. The bolted joint can be set much more precisely than riveted joints. Manual force can be precisely controlled, so that it is possible to work sensitively.
