Review on πŸ”§ Loc-Line 78003 Coolant Hose Assembly Pliers Set - 2 Piece, 1/4" & 1/2" by Alex Montgomery

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Work only occasionally and only when the components are perfectly aligned. 1/2 inch pliers will not work.

Poor design. Work only occasionally and only when the components are perfectly aligned. A 1/2" pliers is not suitable for attaching the hose to the coupling. The 1/4" pliers are only suitable for connecting pieces of hose, not for connecting a piece of hose to a coupling. The pliers had to come off be made of a stronger material as the pins would expand and slide off the components when a lot of pressure was required to connect the lengths of tubing together.In cases where the pliers slipped off and failed to connect various components I had to reconnect mostly done manually.

Pros
  • For use with 1/2" and 1/4" ID Loc-Line modular hoses and fittings
Cons
  • I will add later
