I used these circlip pliers to install a small washer on my motorcycle footpegs. They worked perfectly and I didn't have to bend or file them. Great price and good work.
Working on small retaining rings. However, pliers had to bend the ends to align the tips. Not the best quality but effective. Only an idiot would expect 4 precision tools for under $10.
These have worked very well to remove and install the small snap rings on a Harley's clutch and brake levers. However, after the third use, one of the pins of the angle pliers broke off on the footrest retaining ring.
I had to remove a few retaining rings from the shower valve to remove the temperature sensitive components. The valve was exposed to excessive heat due to the fittings brazed to it, requiring objects to be removed from the valve. Circlip pliers were then used to reinstall the circlips.
Fits Kitchenaid 600 series mixers but I wouldn't say they are good. The tips weren't aligned which made it a bit difficult to get the job done. I had to use a straight line, not an angled one. The elbows weren't the same length, so I couldn't get both sides in the holes at the same time. However, I will say that they are much better than models with interchangeable tips.
Literally the most useless thing I've ever bought anywhere. The springs of the inner clamp fire immediately at the slightest pressure. And the pins on the inner pliers don't match at all. External straight pliers are the only ones I could even think of. I would have sent them back if I hadn't destroyed the packaging as soon as I received it.
