A one-of-a-kind tool with unlimited possibilities, the patented,
easy-to-use Knipex pliers wrench is a fantastic tool for
fastening, gripping, holding, and bending. Its slim profile
allows easy access to confined spaces, making it one of the most
versatile tools in your toolbox. This model (86 03 150) has a
6-inch length and a 1-inch opening capacity. It features a
time-saving push button adjustment with 14 adjustment settings
and infinite positions for quickly locking onto a variety of
workpieces. Its parallel smooth jaws avoid damaging soft or
plated materials and provide even, full-contact gripping of a
wide range of sizes. It's a great tool for tightening locknuts,
exerting pressure to activate the adhesive power of contact
adhesives, edge breaking in tile work, snapping cable ties, and
utilization as a small vice.
Unlike an open-end wrench with uneven compression that can cause
surface damage, this Knipex pliers wrench offers zero backlash
under pressure. With a 10-to-1 lever ratio, the cam action design
ensures a strong, secure grip without hand or wrist strain. The
self-ratcheting action allows for fast, easy operation while
eliminating the need for additional tools. The Knipex pliers
wrench is available in a number of grips and sizes for a variety
of applications.
Excellent for gripping, holding, pressing, and bending

Quality in Every Detail
-----------------------
Sometimes we give our pliers a really hard time. We try to
destroy them to find out what makes them good and long-lasting.
Because we don't want to leave anything to chance, we take a
long, careful look.
The steel Knipex uses is precisely hardened with a maximum of 0.8
percent carbon and defined parts of chromium and vanadium,
guaranteeing optimum cutting performance and service life — even
though it requires special production and costs a bit more. But
our high product demands require this.
The rivet of our high-leverage diagonal cutter also has to stand
up to a lot of stress. That's why we literally give it backup: we
forge it straight onto the pliers. This means extra effort as we
have to precision mill the rivet to a few hundredth millimeters.
But satisfied users are worth this effort.
Knipex also looks closely at the small details. The angles, the
sharpness, the hardness, the toughness of the cutting edges. The
precision and smooth movement of the joint. The handle design and
the finish. We keep reviewing these subjects, we research, we
test, and we improve our pliers.
