## Long description

AWTools External circlip pliers AW16608 160 mm straight tips are professional hand tools designed for installing and removing external retaining rings on shafts and housings. With a compact 160 mm overall length and straight tips, these pliers are intended for precise work in mechanical, automotive and maintenance environments where access is limited. The tool combines a firm grip with controlled tip movement to minimize ring deformation and support repeatable operations.
Advantages
The compact 160 mm size allows operation in confined spaces while still providing sufficient leverage for reliable ring manipulation. Straight tips give clear visibility and direct access to external circlips, facilitating precise placement and extraction. Solid construction and ergonomic handles enable steady control and reduce the risk of slippage during use. The pliers are suitable for frequent workshop use thanks to their balance of strength and maneuverability.

Key specifications
Overall length: 160 mm
Tip style: straight tips for external circlips
Type: external circlip/retaining ring pliers
Intended use: shafts and housings with external rings
Handle: ergonomically shaped for controlled grip
How to use
Select the appropriate tip engagement for the external retaining ring, place the straight tips into the ring holes or behind the ring edge, and squeeze the handles to expand the ring for removal or to compress for fitting as required. Maintain steady hand pressure and visual alignment with the shaft or housing during the operation to avoid slippage or deformation of the ring. After use, clean any debris from the tips and store the pliers in a dry location to preserve tip alignment.
Usage recommendations
Use eye protection during circlip operations and ensure the ring and mating groove are free of dirt or damage before installation. For best results, match the pliers’ tip style and size to the circlip dimensions, and avoid excessive force that could deform the ring or damage the pliers.
