The pins that need to be inserted into the holes to open and close the snap rings are too big for the holes, making the product totally unusable for small snap rings. THANK YOU CHINA!
No snap ring was made to snap off. The tips snap off instantly and the tool itself is so flexible and flimsy that it just bends and folds when you try to use it.
Ideal for retaining ring on myJohn Deere cutter bar. I spent a whole day using a screwdriver to remove it and without these pliers I couldn't reinstall it. Two seconds and back and mowing. Saved a lot of time and scratched my joints. Do not buy more expensive models with JD logo. That is the same.
Worked to remove a deep snap ring from a pulley, then fell apart immediately. The middle bolt isn't long enough so the nut only has 1 or 2 threads to grip. When assembled the head has up/down play which makes it impossible to install the locking rings as this tool flexes the clamp instead of expanding it. bad buy.

Disadvantages: Individual heads have little play, so there is a certain sloppiness in operation and also when replacing them. head units. The heads are a bit of a hassle to swap out - this would be useful especially if you don't need to change heads oftenβ¦
Does the job but the metal looks brittle and the central spring mechanism can slip. Outside. Pay attention to the tool and its details and it will take time. It helps me get the job done, from repair keys to air compressor accessories to automotive bearings. There are 2 ways and 4 pliers heads for removal/installation. You can squeeze the locking ring or flip the head on the opposite side of the tool and open the locking ring. It hasn't let me down yet. Just don't lose the center spring orβ¦
