Review on OEMTOOLS 24689 3 Piece Hose Pinching Pliers Set: Ultimate Solution for Hose Clamps, Radiator Hose & Fuel Line Management by Jim Dahl

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Too thin. Take the metal one.

Largest clamp straight out of the box, overlap/shift jaws. When I tried to pinch the radiator hose, the jaws opened even wider. I reattached the hose and forced the sponges to stay in line. In this case, they do not close completely to pinch the hose. There was still at least 1/2 inch of play and I lost more coolant than I should have. The hose was 2.25 inches long, which is what it was designed for. I will return them.

Pros
  • Great Design
Cons
  • No
