FAQs

What type of circlips can these pliers be used for?

These pliers are specifically designed for internal circlips, which are used inside housings or bores.

Are these pliers suitable for external circlips?

No, this tool is exclusively for internal circlips. External circlips require a different type of plier.

What is the material of the pliers?

The pliers are constructed from industrial quality, chrome nickel steel that is hardened and tempered.

How long is the cutting length?

The cutting length is approximately 17 cm.

How do I maintain the tool to prevent rust?

After use, clean the pliers with a dry cloth and apply a light coat of oil to the joint and tips. Store in a dry place.

What is the benefit of the 90° tip design?

The 90° tip design provides better access and maneuverability when working with internal circlips in confined spaces.

Can these pliers be used for tasks other than circlips?

While they might grip small objects, their design is optimized for the specific function of installing and removing internal circlips. Using them for other tasks may damage the tool or the object.

Troubleshooting

Tips not gripping circlip securely

Ensure the tips are clean and free of debris or oil. Verify that the circlip size is appropriate for the plier's capacity. The chemically blacked tips may show wear over time; inspect for damage.

Pliers feel stiff or difficult to open/close

Check the pivot joint for dirt or corrosion. Clean the joint and apply a small amount of lubricating oil. Ensure no foreign material is obstructing the movement.

Handles are uncomfortable during extended use

While designed for comfort, ensure the cushion grips are correctly positioned. For very long tasks, consider wearing work gloves for additional padding.
