Circlip pliers, also known as snap ring pliers, are essential hand tools designed for installing and removing circlips (retaining rings) in mechanical assemblies. These specialized pliers feature precision-engineered tips that securely engage with circlip holes or slots for accurate manipulation.
Our professional-grade circlip pliers set includes both internal and external configurations to handle all types of retaining ring applications. The tools are constructed from high-quality high carbon steel for durability and long service life, with ergonomic handles designed for comfortable use during extended work sessions.
The set features four distinct plier types:
1. Internal Straight Circlip Pliers: Designed for working with internal circlips installed within bores. The straight tips provide direct engagement with circlip holes when working in open, accessible areas.
2. Internal Bent Circlip Pliers: Feature curved tips that allow access to internal circlips in confined spaces or deep bores where straight pliers cannot reach effectively.
3. External Straight Circlip Pliers: Ideal for handling external circlips mounted on shafts. The straight tips provide firm grip on circlip protrusions in open work areas.
4. External Bent Circlip Pliers: Equipped with angled tips for working with external circlips in tight spaces or around obstacles where direct access is limited.
Each plier in the set is precision-machined to ensure proper alignment and smooth operation. The tools are heat-treated for optimal strength and wear resistance, making them suitable for professional automotive, industrial, and mechanical applications.
