Knipex 90° Circlip Pliers for External Circlips 40-100 mm

Firm grip, removal, and installation for external circlips

Precise and stable, forged tips

The quality of the tips of circlip pliers is of critical importance when rings are installed or removed from shafts. The tips must firmly grip the ring's attachment holes to overcome tension and keep the ring securely on the pliers after removal or before installation – without overstretching the ring. With the Knipex 46 21 A31 pliers, the handles and tips are forged as one piece, ensuring high durability. The tips are precisely twisted and slightly outward to prevent the circlip from slipping. For optimal accessibility in tight 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's tension without overstretching the ring. The balanced tool geometry and friction-free power transmission of the Knipex 46 21 A31 pliers make these tasks easy. The precision joint and stable tips ensure reliable force application.

The Knipex 46 21 A31 pliers are a reliable professional tool that increases the reliability of machines and equipment with circlips. The 90° angle of the plier head allows easy access in situations where vertical access is obstructed.
