Knipex 90° Circlip Pliers for External Circlips 3-10 mm

Secure grip, removal and installation of small external circlips

Precise and stable, forged tips

The shape and quality of the tips of the circlip pliers are crucial for positioning and removing rings. The tips must grip the fixing holes of the circlip, overcome the ring tension and hold the ring securely on the pliers after removal or before installation. This places high demands on precision and stability. The Knipex 46 21 A01 circlip pliers, with tips at a 90° angle, meet these requirements. The handles and tips of the pliers are forged in one piece, ensuring high durability. The tips are precisely twisted and slightly tilted outwards to prevent the circlip from slipping. For optimal accessibility in narrow installation conditions, the main parts are also twisted and as narrow as possible, while maintaining the necessary rigidity.

Well-controlled force transmission to the circlip

When installing or removing circlips, it is important that the user can overcome the ring tension without overstretching it. The balanced tool geometry and friction-free power transmission of the Knipex 46 21 A01 pliers make this tool ideal. The precision joint and stable tips ensure reliability.
