Blue Spot Tools 08702 Circlip Plier, Blue, Set of 4 Piece

I'd had one of those interchangeable tip circlip tools for a while, but it always seemed difficult to use and not very effective on sturdier clips, so I bought this set hoping they'd be better. The case is nice enough and keeps the pliers safe and easy to find, but the important bit is the pliers themselves. I used them to disassemble my diving regulators, which have a very sturdy and strong circlip in them and I found the process a doddle with these pliers. The tips seem decently strong, whilst being small enough to fit the holes on the clip, and you can apply enough pressure to open (or close) the circlips with ease and no fear of them snapping, disassembling themselves or slipping. For the price, I feel these are good quality for the DIYer who needs a decent set of circlip pliers on an occasional basis.

These are reasonably good quality, comfortable to use and seem to do the job well. The only issue was that one pair of pliers had a little excess metal on one of the tips which i had to file away before it would fit into the holes in the circlips. Overall good value for money for the DIY'er.

Very useful i bought them to fix the springs in door handle they are brilliant, the size is just right for my hands

Really pleased with my set of circlip pliers, they seem very sturdy and well made for the price and come in a nice carry case too so I can keep them together.

Well made good case

The pliers are good but they do not engage on the small circlips . The noses are too large a diameter.

Good

Had to file down the tips to get them to slot into the holes on the circlips!!
