What this plier wrench does
The Knipex 86 03 180 SBA combines plier grip with wrench precision for fasteners up to 1 3/8 in. Its push-button adjustment locks into 15 jaw positions without slipping. Nickel-plated HAWA steel resists corrosion during daily professional use. The smooth flat jaws protect chrome and anodised surfaces from marking.
Jaw opening and adjustment
Maximum jaw capacity reaches 1 3/8 in across 15 distinct positions selected by the push-button mechanism. Jaw width measures 7/8 in and jaw length 1 in, giving a broad contact area on flats. Smooth jaw texture prevents damage to polished fittings while maintaining high torque transfer. Overall tool length is 7 1/4 in for leverage in tight spaces.
Build fit and limitations
Standard cushion grips provide comfort but are not insulated for electrical work. The tool is not tether-ready and carries no non-sparking rating for hazardous environments. Buyers needing insulated handles, lanyard points or spark-free alloys must choose a different model. This wrench suits general mechanical assembly where surface protection and rapid size changes matter.
