Alligator water pump pliers 180 mm with multi-component grips, blister card - Knipex 88 02 180 SB

These 180 mm Alligator water pump pliers lock themselves onto pipes and nuts and come with multi-component grips instead of a plain plastic coating. The nine-position ratchet adjustment provides about 30 % more gripping capacity than a conventional water pump plier of the same length.

Benefits

• Grips made of three ergonomic components for optimised handling, with two KNIPEXtend interfaces for accessories.
• Self-locking on pipes and nuts, no slipping on the workpiece and less effort at the handles.
• Gripping surfaces with specially hardened teeth of about 61 HRC, so high wear resistance keeps the grip secure over years of use.
• Nine-position ratchet adjustment with roughly 30 % more gripping capacity than conventional water pump pliers of the same length.
• Slim head and joint area plus a box joint with double guidance for high stability under load.
• Rugged construction that is insensitive to dirt, plus a pinch guard that prevents crushing injuries.
