Alligator water pump pliers with comfort handles, pipes up to Ø 42 mm, 180 mm - Knipex 88 02 180

In tight ducts and under wash basins every millimetre of build height counts. The Alligator 88 02 180 stays handy at 180 mm yet still grips pipes up to Ø 42 mm, because the 9-notch adjustment offers around 30 % more gripping capacity than conventional water pump pliers of this length.

Benefits

• Good access to the workpiece thanks to the slim size of head and joint area.
• Self-clamping on pipes and nuts, no slipping and effortless working.
• Gripping surfaces with special hardened teeth of approx. 61 HRC, giving high wear resistance and a lasting secure grip.
• Box-joint design with double guide for high stability.
• Robust construction, insensitive to dirt and therefore also suitable for outdoor work.
• Comfort handles made of three ergonomic components with two KNIPEXtend interfaces for extensions, plus a pinch guard against crushing injuries.

Areas of use

Sanitary installation, heating systems, maintenance on fittings and light assembly work. The short body fits into a tool bag or belt pouch and reaches connections that a 250 mm pair of pliers can no longer approach.

Standards and conformity

The pliers are built to DIN ISO 8976. According to the manufacturer they contain no substances of very high concern under REACH, the RoHS directive does not apply.
