Self-Adjusting V-Jaw Pliers
The Knipex 85 01 250 US is a 10 inch self-adjusting water pump plier built for plumbers and mechanics. Its forged chrome vanadium electric steel body is oil-hardened for durability. The polished head and atramentized jaws resist corrosion while the dipped plastic coating on the handles provides a secure grip.
One-Handed Jaw Adaptation
The plier automatically adjusts to the workpiece with a single hand motion, removing the need for manual slip-joint settings. A 1 3/16 inch jaw width defines the maximum opening capacity for pipes and fasteners. The V-jaw profile grips round, flat, and hexagonal shapes securely without slipping off the work surface.
10 Inch Overall Length
The 10 inch length determines the leverage and reach available in tight plumbing cavities. Buyers needing greater reach or higher torque for larger diameter pipe work should select a longer model. This size suits general maintenance and repair tasks where moderate access and force are required.

Questions about this item
Which version of the Knipex 85 01 250 US should I pick for general plumbing tasks?
The 85 01 250 US is a single 10" self-adjusting V-jaw model with 1 3/16" jaw width, forged from chrome vanadium electric steel and oil-hardened; there are no alternative capacities or versions listed for this product.
What does the 1 3/16" jaw width mean when I'm actually turning a pipe or nut?
The V-jaw opens automatically up to 1 3/16" so it grips round, flat or hex fasteners of that maximum size without manual slip-joint adjustment, and the atramentized jaws resist corrosion during plumbing work.
How does the self-adjusting mechanism limit what I can grip compared to a traditional slip-joint?
The box-joint design with a single hinge and self-gripping V-jaw removes the need to select a groove; it clamps instantly on any workpiece up to the 1 3/16" capacity, while the dipped handles provide a secure non-slip hold.
