Knipex Pliers Wrench pliers and a wrench in a single tool grey atramentized, plastic coated 180 mm 86 01 180

I am absolutely blown away by the performance of my Knipex Pliers Wrench! This tool is truly a game-changer when it comes to gripping and tightening nuts and bolts. The unique design allows for a smooth and precise grip, without damaging the surface of the nut or bolt. The pliers wrench also allows for a greater degree of flexibility in tight spaces, making it an incredibly versatile tool to have in any toolkit.What I love most about this pliers wrench is the high-quality construction and durable materials. The chrome vanadium steel is incredibly strong and resistant to wear and tear, making this a long-lasting investment for any handyman or DIY enthusiast. The non-slip grip also adds an extra level of safety and control, ensuring that the pliers wrench won't slip or cause any accidents while in use.Overall, I highly recommend the Knipex Pliers Wrench to anyone in need of a high-quality wrench. It's definitely worth the investment, I can never go back to a standard ordinary adjustable wrench.

I have owned both these pliers and plus the larger - 250mm - version for many years. They have proven to be one of the best tools that I have ever owned and I am a craftsman who owns virtually every type hand tool available. I have purchased this additional pair as a Christmas present for my brother in law who has much admired my pliers for many years.These Knipex pliers have smooth square jaws so can be used for gripping without damage (especially if a vulnerable item is protected by a soft piece of Fabric/leather etc prior to closing), clamping, holding, pressing, bending and most importantly for me, as a quick release spanner. Used in conjunction with the larger version they are a very effective way of tightening and loosening the unions on taps, central heating radiators and general pipework - especially the larger nut sizes where suitable sized spanners are not always readily to hand.The simple, but immediate, infinitely adjustable nature of the operating mechanism of these pliers is one of their biggest attributes especially in often difficult or restricted access applications.The Knipex pliers are extremely well made in cast Chrome Vanadium are extremely sturdy and are truly built to last a lifetime (and even much longer I suspect). Mine are over ten years old and used regularly yet are showing no signs of wear whatsoever.Knipex tools are not the cheapest - but the best tools never are. However, Lackner & Urnitsch GMBH helped to ease this burden by offering the pliers at a 31%, discount - the best deal that I could find anywhere on the Internet at the time.To sing the praises of Lackner & Urnitsch although based in Germany they delivered the pliers to me in double quick time, boxed, then very well and safely packed with a neatly typed invoice within and a tourist map of their locality. They are an excellent and efficient company to deal with and cannot be faulted - I am 110% happy with my transaction - Highly recommended.

Top quality wrench. Very adjustable and and a very secure grip. Definitely recommend them.

It might just be in contrast to Cresent wrenches which are miserable to use.Even compared to the old parellel jaw king D's it's better the narrow jaw is able to sneak into some awkward places.Like the nut above the rubber foot on an overly tight washing machine levelling leg.Or to rapidly walk the worm gear back enough to scrub out the rusted solid crescent wrench it's replacing.Surprisingly comfy handles, I think the 180 seems to be a good general purpose size to get a lot of use out of this. Still getting the hang of the adjuster but that's just because I'm old.Super useful tool that can replace a whole spanner kit for a lit of applications. Not all but most. I'd certainly grab this to tighten or loosen a bolt before hauling in the tub of spanners and sockets.Excellent tool well worth the money. Definitely deserves it's place in the tool bag even if it can't replace everything a full set of spanners in the van could.
