KNIPEX Tools 86 04 100 Pliers Wrench XS – 4-inch Compact, One-Handed Adjustment

Meet the KNIPEX Tools 86 04 100 Pliers Wrench XS

Designed for tight spaces, this 4-inch pliers wrench is the world’s smallest fully functioning model of its kind. It blends precision with a compact form, letting you grip, hold, press, and bend in scenarios where larger tools won’t fit.

One-handed quick adjustment up to 3/4" (19 mm) makes fine-tuning fast between tasks, while ten discrete positions let you dial in the exact jaw opening you need. The parallel jaws distribute pressure evenly to secure a reliable grip without slipping, and the smooth jaws are gentle on surface finishes.

The box-joint construction adds stability and durability, so the tool stays aligned under load. Textured handles improve grip in wet, oily, or dusty environments, and a pinch guard helps protect fingers during setup and adjustment.
