Why this one
125, 165 or 225 mm
Three lengths of bent external circlip plier, so you can pick the size for the ring and the space.
Bent tips
The bent nose angles the tips away from your hand, giving a clear view of the groove where straight pliers would block your sightline.
Return spring
A return spring opens the jaws for you, which makes repeated ring work easier.
Chrome vanadium, DIN 5254
Chrome vanadium steel with a vinyl grip, made to DIN 5254 for outer circlips and snap rings.
Read the full description
When your work demands fast, reliable removal and installation of external circlips, you need a tool built for that single purpose. This Teng Tools bent-jaw plier puts chrome vanadium strength behind a 130 mm tip designed to engage external retaining rings with precision and control.
The bent nose profile angles the tips away from your hand, giving you a clear view of the groove and letting you operate in spaces where straight pliers would block your sightline. At 130 mm (5.1 in) overall and just 106 g, the compact body fits comfortably in one hand and tucks into tight engine bays, gearboxes, and mechanical assemblies without fouling on adjacent parts.
Chrome vanadium provides the spring-back and wear resistance professional mechanics expect. The tips maintain their alignment across thousands of open-and-close cycles, so the plier performs as accurately on the last ring of the day as it did on the first.
Whether you are rebuilding transmissions, servicing hydraulic cylinders, or maintaining production-line equipment, a dedicated external circlip tool eliminates fumbling with convertible heads and keeps your workflow moving. Add this to your bench, your roll-cab, or your field kit and always have the right plier ready for the job.
