We've been sending these out to shops doing a lot of brake and transmission work, and they pretty much all come back saying angled tips really help with those tight snap ring grooves—the serrated jaws bite in well without slipping, which is what it does best.
Drop forged alloy steel with that nickel-chrome plating, so they hold up fine against oil and corrosion, and the 8-1/4" length gives you enough but still fits in cramped engine bays (usually 3/4" jaw opening for most standerd rings).
Basically, if you're dealing with stubborn snap rings on pedal shafts or clutch assemblies, the spring-loaded mechanism saves a lot of hand fatigue—but it's not really suited for heavy-duty indutrial ring removal where you'd need a bigger spread.
One thing I'd mention is the dipped comfort grips; they're decent but can get a bit slick if your hands are greasy, so some guys wrap them with tape anyway.
5, we offer OEM and custom packaing if you need it, and lead time is about 20 days or so for standard orders—MOQ is typically 50 units, but check on that.
Our MOQ is usually 500 sets, but we can discuss smaller quantities for first-time orders. Custom packaging is absolutely available—just send us your design specs and we'll take it from there.
Lead time is typically 25-30 days after order confirmation. If you need a rush, we can sometimes expedite depending on current production load.
Yes, we can supply mill test reports for the alloy steel as well as a certificate of compliance for the nickel-chrome plating. Just request them with your order.
The angled tips and serrated jaws work for both internal and external snap rings commonly used in automotive repair. The 3/4" jaw opening covers most standard ring sizes you'd run into.
We can customize the grip color and add your logo, yes. That falls under our OEM service—just let us know the Pantone color and artwork, and we'll handle the rest.
