Fixed-Tip Retaining Ring Pliers
Install and remove rings inside a bore or around a shaft.
Pliers for internal retaining rings are used to install and remove rings inside a bore.
Pliers for external retaining rings are used to install and remove rings around a shaft.
Pliers for internal and external retaining rings can be used on both types—switch from one to the other by adjusting the jaw. For thumb screw jaw adjustment, remove the thumb screw, move the handle from one hole to the other, and retighten the screw. For T-knob jaw adjustment, give the T-knob a quarter turn, move the handle from one slot to the other, and retighten the knob. For knob adjustment, turn the knob to convert. For push-button jaw adjustment, push the button to convert.
Spring-assisted jaws open automatically when you release the handles.
Adjustable handle stop prevents you from over-expanding or contracting retaining rings.
