Knipex

We have always used knipex for our ring pliers. The rings stay on the pliers until we set them down on the work surface or the small parts dish. I have disassembled laser printer pickup assemblies that have 6 rings, 21 screws, 19 springs and 25 gears in them. The last thing you want is a e-ring, snap ring or c-clip flying across the room, while you are working. It is dangerous and time consuming. We have used other ring pliers, but the tips never hold up for long. Knipex is our go to plier for fasteners and retaining rings. They never let us down.

Perfect size

Tried several other brands, but they felt cheap, were awkward to use or wouldn't hold the snap ring well. The Knipex are the perfect size. Holds the ring everytime and, because of the amount of leverage they give you, they are really easy to use and fit into tight spots.

Precisely fabricated Knipex "46-11-A0" external circlip pliers work perfect

The tips of the circlip pliers are for 0.9mm eyelet holes in very small circlips. These Knipex pliers fir the holes tigh so the circlip is held firmly as it is installed and removed.

Knipex 46-11-A0

Small grips give great control, the well designed "tapered grip tips" are actually machined to maintain their grip on the snap ring hole... excellent at holding the snap ring. This is the way forward.
