KNIPEX 00 20 04 SB 8-Piece Precision Circlip Snap Ring Pliers Set

Overview

The KNIPEX Precision Snap Ring Pliers Set is built for precise and delicate handling of snap rings and circlips. The kit provides both internal and external pliers, with straight and 90 degree angled tips, enabling access in tight spaces and along shafts. The design emphasizes control and reliability, so you can engage small parts with confidence without forcing fits or risking slippage.

What’s inside

The package includes eight pliers and a plastic tool tray for organization. You get two Internal Precision Snap Ring Pliers, two External Precision Snap Ring Pliers, two Internal Angled Precision Snap Ring Pliers, and two External Angled Precision Snap Ring Pliers. Each tool has a dedicated cavity in the tray for quick selection and return, helping keep the workstation efficient.

• Two internal precision pliers for bore hole circlips, sized to fit from 15/32 inch to 2 23/64 inch
• Two external precision pliers for shaft circlips, sized to fit from 25/64 inch to 2 23/64 inch

Performance and design

Circlips are held securely thanks to large contact faces and the controlled tip position, reducing the chance of the ring flicking away during installation or removal. Included straight and 90 degree angled tips provide reliable engagement in constrained spaces. A bolted joint delivers precise, zero-backlash operation, supporting steady control during use.

• Heavy-duty continuous operation up to ten times longer service life than typical turned tips
• Inserted tips made from drawn spring steel wire for durability

Durability and storage

The set is designed for routine workshop use while maintaining precision and control. The plastic tray keeps all eight tools organized on a workbench or in a cabinet, with clearly defined cavities for fast tool location and return.

Use cases and suitability

Ideal for installing or removing circlips in bores or on shafts, especially when space is tight or finger clearance is limited. The combination of internal and external pliers with straight and angled tips broadens the range of bore and shaft applications you can tackle with a single set.
