Bent-Tip External Circlip Pliers, 140mm

Brief Overview

These 140mm bent-tip external circlip pliers are engineered for mechanics and technicians who need reliable snap ring removal and installation in confined assembly spaces. The outward-angled jaw design provides superior access to external retaining rings on shafts, bearings, and mechanical assemblies. The compact 140mm length makes this tool indispensable for precision work where standard straight pliers cannot reach. For applications requiring longer reach, consider pairing with larger 240mm external circlip pliers or a straight-jaw variant for alternative access angles.

Key Features

• Bent jaw design: Outward-angled tips engage external snap rings at optimal angles, reducing slippage and cam-out risk
• Small hooked tips: Precisely machined to seat securely in circlip grooves without damaging ring material
• 140mm compact length: Ideal for tight assembly areas, gear boxes, transmission components, and engine subassemblies
• Ergonomic grip handles: Black foam/rubber-covered handles reduce hand fatigue during repetitive assembly operations
• Single pivot hinge: Robust, single-point construction ensures consistent jaw alignment and durability under industrial use
• Matte finish metal body: Professional-grade corrosion-resistant construction

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High-demand consumable position: Circlip pliers are staple inventory in every professional automotive and industrial shop
• Compact size drives volume sales: The 140mm length is the most common specification; customers typically stock multiple pairs
• Repeat purchasing: These tools see constant use in assembly/disassembly operations—shops reorder regularly
• Affordable entry point: Lower price tier makes this an attractive impulse add-on to larger tool orders
• Bulk bundling opportunity: Pair with straight-jaw and larger variants to create complete circlip tool kits

Why This Tool Matters

External snap rings are used across automotive and industrial assembly—engine blocks, gearboxes, transmissions, bearing housings, and hydraulic systems. Without proper bent-jaw circlip pliers, technicians resort to makeshift tools, risking ring damage and safety hazards. This 140mm bent-tip design is the industry standard for compact, controlled access to external retaining rings, making it an essential item in any professional toolkit.

Stock confidently. This is a high-turnover tool that every technician needs.
