FAQs
What is a 'clic' collar?
A 'clic' collar is a type of fastening ring, often used in automotive and industrial applications, that requires specialized pliers for installation and removal due to its unique design.
Are these pliers suitable for all types of collars?
These pliers are specifically designed for 'clic' collars. They may not be effective or suitable for other types of clamps or collars.
How do the swivel heads work?
The swivel heads allow the jaws of the pliers to rotate independently, providing greater flexibility and access to collars in confined or awkward locations.
What is the weight of the pliers?
The pliers weigh approximately 0.50265395736 pounds.
How should I clean and maintain the pliers?
Wipe clean with a dry cloth after use and store in a dry place. Periodically check the swivel joints and jaws for wear or debris.
Can I use these pliers for general gripping tasks?
While they are designed for clic collars, they may offer some basic gripping ability, but this is not their primary intended function and could lead to premature wear if used for other purposes.
Troubleshooting
Pliers do not grip the collar securely.
Ensure the correct size and type of clic collar is being used. Check the jaws for any debris or damage that might be preventing a firm grip.
Swivel heads feel stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the swivel joint with a dry cloth. A very small amount of light lubricating oil may be applied to the pivot point if stiffness persists, ensuring excess is wiped away.
Pliers are difficult to maneuver in tight spaces.
Experiment with different angles using the swivel heads. Sometimes a slight rotation of the handle can achieve the necessary access.
