Precision Internal Circlip Plier
The Knipex 48 11 J4 is a retaining ring plier built for mechanics and technicians who need to install or remove internal circlips. Its chrome vanadium steel construction provides the strength required for repeated professional use.
Installation and common issues
The 0.125 inch tip diameter must match the circlip holes exactly or the tips will slip and deform the ring. Apply steady axial pressure to keep the tips seated; forcing the tool at an angle is the most frequent cause of tip breakage.
Check your existing setup
Verify that the internal retaining rings you service accept a 0.125 inch tip before ordering. Confirm you have adequate access room for the 12-3/4 inch overall length in the assemblies you work on. Note the California Proposition 65 warning regarding chemical exposure.
