Extended Product Information

FAQs

What Knipex pliers are these jaws compatible with?

These protective jaws are designed specifically for Knipex Cobra water pump pliers (model 87 xx 300) and Knipex Alligator water pump pliers (model 88 xx 300), specifically the 300mm size manufactured from 2008 onwards.

Do these jaws come with pliers?

No, this product is for the set of three red plastic protective jaws only. The Knipex pliers themselves are sold separately.

How do I attach the protective jaws?

Simply align the plastic jaws with the gripping jaws of your compatible Knipex pliers and press firmly until they snap securely into place.

Will these jaws fit older models of Knipex pliers?

These jaws are designed for models manufactured from 2008 onwards. Older models may have different jaw dimensions, and these protective jaws may not fit correctly or securely.

Can I use these jaws on any type of workpiece?

They are ideal for round workpieces and materials where surface protection is essential, such as finished metal, plastic, or plated surfaces. Avoid using them for extreme force applications where the plastic might deform or break.

How long do the protective jaws typically last?

The lifespan depends on the frequency and intensity of use. For standard applications, they should last a considerable time. Regular inspection for wear is recommended, and they should be replaced if they show signs of significant damage or deformation.

Are there different colors available?

This specific product (87 09 300 V01) is for the red plastic protective jaws. Knipex may offer other accessories or variants, but this set is red.

Troubleshooting

Protective jaws do not fit securely

Ensure you are using the correct Knipex plier models (300mm Cobra/Alligator from 2008 onwards). Check that the plier jaws and the protective jaws are clean and free of debris. Realign and press firmly until they click into place.

Jaws slip during use

This may indicate wear on the protective jaws or the plier jaws. Inspect both for damage. Ensure the workpiece is not excessively oily or wet. For very heavy torque applications, consider if the plastic jaws are the appropriate solution for the task, or if extreme grip is needed.

Protective jaws broke or cracked

Plastic can become brittle if exposed to extreme cold or stress. Inspect for signs of damage before each use. If damaged, replace the protective jaws immediately to prevent workpiece damage.
