Review on πŸ”§ Boost Your Precision with Performance Tool 1435 Snap Ring Plier Set by Reid Rickerson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Mostly scrap except very light

The heads are very loose on the pins and twist when the ring is actually compressed. This will either make them jump out of the ring or just out of the tongs. The twisting (I suspect) makes it extremely difficult to get the pin holding them in and out, making changing heads impossible (I had to use a vise to get it out). Even if you manage to bite off the ring, the pins don't tilt at all. So if you squeeze the inner ring while trying to pull it out of the socket, the pins of the pliers will pop right out of the hole. Ring. That might be fine for an ultra-light locking ring, but pretty much rubbish for anything else.

Pros
  • Solid finish
Cons
  • Was damaged
