🔧 Mini Snap Ring Pliers Set: Heavy Duty External/Internal Circlip Pliers - Straight/Bent Jaw - Remover and Retaining Functions (4 Pcs) Review

Don't buy them. So cheaply made that the pointed ends (which really should be tiny cylinders) have significant burrs and debris that make them useless for tiny snap rings. Avoid.

This set of pliers is probably good value for money. The tips are misaligned, neither horizontally nor vertically. Wasn't working on a hectic project I'm dealing with.

I tried working with cheaper snap ring pliers with interchangeable heads held by a spring. I found them too difficult to control. I bought this nice economical set and it's definitely a lot easier to work with.

I only need them occasionally and I'm glad I bought them. I replaced a cheap pair of KV with this kit and the difference is day-night. If I used them all the time I'd probably buy a set of men's sized pens instead, but they work well and are of acceptable quality.

In the case of round-nose pliers with outer rings, the tips are at an angle to one another. So when you expand the ring, the spikes act like ramps and the ring slides off.

Might work well with large rings, but not this one If these invisible purchases don't meet your needs, remember that depending on your spending, returning these items can be a hassle, and your frustration will end up in your deadwood.

These are nice little pliers but they need a bit of work. They barely worked for my purposes, which is removing and reinserting snap rings, which were small, but not very small. The plier tips are ground to an unequal pin diameter and tapering circumference towards the tip, giving them a lighter taper shape than the tips of traditional SAE snap ring pliers (usually ground to an inverted taper at the end). They need a little trimming with a needle file or emery cloth to even out and improve the…

This is a good circlip pliers set, especially when working in tight spaces. I needed to replace a missing (probably broken) snap ring holding the steering gear on an old Murray mower and these snap ring pliers were the perfect solution for the job. I originally purchased IRWIN VISE-GRIP Convertible Snap Pliers with interchangeable tips, but the 90 degree tips are too large to fit a 9/16" locking ring. These circlip pliers have graduated tips meaning they will fit almost any size circlip, no one
