Alligator water pump pliers chrome-plated with comfort handles, Ø 70 mm, 300 mm - Knipex 88 05 300

Large pipe connections demand leverage, and the handle has to sit safely in the hand while the force is applied. The chrome-plated Alligator 88 05 300 takes pipes up to Ø 70 mm and nuts up to 60 mm across flats and transmits the force through comfort handles made of three ergonomic components.

Benefits

• Nine notched steps with around 30 % more gripping capacity than conventional water pump pliers of the same length.
• Comfort handles made of three ergonomic components with two KNIPEXtend interfaces for extensions.
• Self-clamping on pipes and nuts, no slipping on the workpiece and effortless working.
• Gripping surfaces with special hardened teeth of approx. 61 HRC, for a lasting secure grip at high wear resistance.
• Box-joint design with double guide, which keeps the jaws aligned even at high torque.
• Robust construction, insensitive to dirt, plus a pinch guard against crushing injuries.

Areas of use

Plumbing and heating installation, waste water and pump technology, maintenance in industry and building services. The 300 mm length is the reserve to reach for once a 250 mm pair of pliers falls short on diameter or on the torque required.

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.
