Description
WORKPRO Curved External Circlip Pliers (Circlip Pliers) – 180mm (7 inch) – Model WP231151 – are the specialized tool that combines reaching power with mechanical precision. Designed with an angled head to allow users to install or remove external circlips in obstructed areas or at angles where straight pliers are difficult to use.
Professional Features and Benefits:
-
Angled Curved Head Design: The angled head allows you to access shafts and stems behind mechanical barriers, providing a better viewing angle for the holes while expanding the ring.
-
Chrome Vanadium Steel (CR-V): The tool is made of high-quality, heat-treated steel to ensure maximum hardness and durability, preventing delicate tips from bending under the pressure of strong rings.
-
External Action Mechanism: Designed to open and expand rings; the jaws spread apart when the handles are squeezed, allowing the ring to pass over the shaft and smoothly secure it in its groove.
-
Precision Hardened Tips: The tips are precisely shaped to fit standard ring holes, preventing sudden ring slippage and providing complete safety during work.
-
Spring System and Comfortable Handles: Equipped with an internal spring that automatically opens the pliers to reduce hand effort, with non-slip covered handles to ensure complete control even with oil present.

Technical Tip: The bent head of external pliers is the best choice when installing rings in places that do not allow the user to stand directly in front of the shaft, as it provides a comfortable "lever" for the hand without the need to twist the wrist.
