These pliers are specifically designed for the precise installation and removal of internal circlips within a 12-25mm diameter range.
They are forged from chrome vanadium electric steel, a high-strength alloy known for its durability.
No, these are designed exclusively for internal circlips. External circlip pliers have a different tip configuration.
It means the pliers are designed to install and remove circlips without causing them to bend, deform, or damage the housing they are fitted into, ensuring a clean and proper fit.
They are suitable for internal circlips with a diameter between 12mm and 25mm.
While made of professional-grade steel, their 140mm length and specific design are best suited for medium-duty tasks. For extremely heavy-duty industrial applications, larger or specialized Knipex models might be more appropriate.
Keep them clean and dry after use, lubricate the pivot point periodically, and store them in a protected area to prevent rust and damage.
Ensure the circlip is within the 12-25mm capacity range and the tips are properly aligned with the circlip's holes. Check for any debris on the tips or circlip.
Verify that you are using the correct pliers for internal circlips. Ensure the circlip is not excessively tight or rusted in place. Apply slight rotational pressure while opening or closing the handles.
Cease use immediately. This indicates the pliers are being used beyond their intended capacity or on a damaged circlip. Inspect for damage and consider replacement if compromised.
Clean the pivot area and apply a light machine oil. Ensure no debris is lodged in the pivot mechanism.
Setup: These pliers are ready to use straight out of the packaging. No assembly or setup is required.
Compatibility: The Knipex 75078 is specifically designed for internal circlips with an inner diameter ranging from 12mm to 25mm. It is compatible with circlips manufactured to DIN ISO 5256C specifications.
Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity:
