Knipex 9K 00 80 17 US Plier Set

This set contains two retaining ring pliers built from Chrome Vanadium Steel for professional use. The pliers measure 5 1/2 in and 5 3/4 in overall length with a 0.047 in tip diameter and 0 Degree tip angle. Red handles identify the tools in a busy workshop.

Suits Internal and External Ring Work

Technicians who install or remove retaining rings on bores up to 1 1/4 in and shafts from 25/64 in to 63/64 in will find the correct jaws here. Buyers needing angled tips for confined access or larger diameter ranges should look at something else.

0 Degree Tip Angle Specification

The straight 0 Degree tip angle determines whether the pliers reach the ring groove in your application. Verify that your bores and shafts fall within the 1 1/4 in and 25/64 in to 63/64 in limits before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I install the tips on these 0-degree pliers without bending them?

The tips are fixed at 0 degrees and 0.047 in diameter; select the correct plier for internal or external rings, insert tips fully into the ring holes, then squeeze the handles to expand or compress the ring.

What maintenance will the chrome vanadium steel jaws need over time?

Wipe the jaws clean after each use, apply a light oil to the pivot and tips to prevent corrosion, and inspect the 0.047 in tips for wear or deformation before each job.

At what shaft size does the external plier reach its limit first?

The external plier covers shafts from 25/64 in to 63/64 in; the 63/64 in maximum is the first limit reached under sustained use.
