FAQs

What is the size range for this circlip plier set?

This set is designed for circlips and snap rings with diameters between 12mm and 25mm.

Can these pliers be used for both internal and external circlips?

Yes, the set is designed to handle both internal and external circlips.

What material are the tips made of?

The tips are made of 1.3mm bearing steel for strength and durability.

How many pieces are included in this set?

The set includes four pieces.

Are these pliers suitable for very small or very large circlips?

No, these pliers are specifically designed for the 12mm to 25mm diameter range and may not be suitable for circlips outside of this range.

How should I store these pliers to maintain them?

Store the pliers in a dry environment, clean and free of debris, preferably in a tool roll or toolbox to prevent rust and protect the tips.

What should I do if the plier tips get damaged?

If the tips appear bent or damaged, stop using the pliers immediately as they can cause further damage. Inspect them for wear and consider replacement if they are compromised.

Troubleshooting

Pliers do not grip the circlip effectively.

Ensure the circlip is within the 12-25mm diameter range and that the correct type (internal/external) of plier is being used. Check that the tips are clean and not damaged. Verify the plier jaws are fully closed on the circlip.

Difficulty inserting or removing the circlip.

Confirm the circlip is seated correctly in its groove. Apply slight rotational pressure while using the pliers. Ensure the mating surfaces are clean and free of obstructions. For stuck circlips, a penetrating oil may help.

Tips appear bent or damaged.

Discontinue use immediately. Damaged tips can compromise grip and potentially damage the circlip or workpiece. Contact the supplier for potential replacement options if within warranty, otherwise, consider replacing the tool.
