IRWIN VISE-GRIP Convertible Snap Ring Pliers, 6-1/2-Inch (2078900)

Great value. Lots of options for uses given the interchangeable heads. Seem well built. Have used as soon as arrived and these work great for me.

Works great for c-clip snap rings. Extra heads allow you to handle almost any situation these are used. Heads are super easy to switch out. Some say these bend easy. Not if you use them correctly. They are not made to carry bowling balls people. You might get a lemon which is always possible. Some filing to fit the smaller c-clips is a minor annoyance in my book. Like others I wonder why waiting so long to get these nifty things.

It does the job, but the removable tips come off very easily while in use and it can be an issue if someone is working on an open engine. I used them to modify a high-end door lock while working on a table so there was no danger of dropping the ring I needed to remove in some places where it would be hard to recover, but I would never use them if working on an engine bay. They are cheap but for critical work is better to spend more and get the fixed tip ones.

Yesterday I was going to write a bad review bcuz the pin on the pliers were too long n slim causing the snap ring to twist after applying too much force that caused it to stick out one end n require an insane ft/lbs to push off the pliers , after two days and a 3 man team mechanic the tool could not get the ring seated , but turns out the ring was was special for the AC compressor magnetic coil behind the pulley , it had a oval outer shape that was designed to bend n flex , turns out the length of the pin was perfect to accommodate this design flex n after realizing all I needed to do was counter twist the ring against the direction it turned to straighten n expanded the ring perfectly straighten it self , turns out the tool is well made, n the mechanics were just inexperienced n weren’t needed

Great product for the money .

Good durable quality tool

Great snap ring pliers, used to for a few projects now.

The concept behind these is great but the execution not so much. The swappable tip mechanism is way too flimsy. The tips flex under the pressure of the snap clip. I’m going to try replacing the spring on the retention clip with a stronger one to see if that helps. An easier fix might be some small washers between the pin head and spring to increase the tension. Overall they work but they are really finicky and if you’re not careful your snap clip will go flying off into Timbuktu

It was the perfect tool for the job. I needed to replace a snap ring on a hose reel. Saved me a lot of time and money. With multiple ends it has the perfect end for any type of ring.

Muy útil y práctica, para extraer seguros internos y externos, mango ergonómico, muy cómodo.

يجي معاها 4 رؤوس لتغيير وضعيه الزراديه يعني بدال ماتشتري 4 زراديات عشان تفك التيله او المقبس! هذه تغنيك على الاربعه

Excellent product, so adaptable. Saves having 5 seperate sets of circlip pliers in your box.
