Why this one
Ratcheting mechanism for controlled action
The built-in ratcheting system lets you open or close large snap rings incrementally, holding position at each click so you can reposition your grip without losing progress.
Straight and bent jaw capability
This tool is engineered with both straight and bent jaw orientations, giving you access to retaining rings from multiple angles without swapping between separate dedicated pliers.
Heavy duty 20-inch length for large applications
At 505 mm (19.9 in) overall length, this tool delivers the reach and leverage that compact pliers cannot match.
Precision 505 mm tip diameter
The 505 mm tip diameter is sized to engage circlip holes securely without slipping during installation or removal.
Built for the professional
Weighing 1759 g, this tool is purpose-built for tradesmen who work on equipment where standard automotive snap ring pliers fall short.
Read the full description
When a job calls for installing or removing large retaining rings deep inside heavy equipment, standard compact pliers run out of reach and leverage fast. This 20-inch ratcheting tool is built for exactly those situations.
The ratcheting jaw mechanism lets you work incrementally, clicking into position with each squeeze so the ring stays where you put it while you reposition your hands. No spring-back, no lost progress. That feature alone saves time and frustration on large, high-tension rings that fight you every step of the way.
With both straight and bent jaw orientations available, you can approach rings from the angle the job demands rather than forcing a tool to work at an awkward angle. The 505 mm tips seat positively in ring holes to prevent slippage and protect both the ring and the groove from damage.
At 505 mm (19.9 in) and 1759 g, the tool is sized to generate serious mechanical advantage. Automotive techs rebuilding transmissions, heavy equipment mechanics servicing hydraulic cylinders, and industrial maintenance crews working on large-bore assemblies will find this reach and leverage indispensable.
This is an individual plier, not a set — purpose-selected for the specific application where you need extended reach and ratcheting control on internal or external circlip work.
