Circlip Pliers GEKO G01663 set 4 pcs, 250 mm long, for external and internal circlips

The GEKO G01663 circlip pliers set contains four 250 mm long pliers designed for handling both external and internal circlips. Intended for installation and removal of retaining rings, this set provides the reach and control required in mechanical assemblies. The tools feature long handles to access recessed rings and a construction aimed at delivering stable grip and manipulation during automotive, machine maintenance, and general workshop tasks.

Advantages

The set includes both external and internal circlip pliers to cover common workshop needs without requiring multiple single tools. Long 250 mm handles increase leverage and reach for working in deeper housings or assemblies. The pliers are built for precise control when compressing or expanding circlips, reducing the risk of slippage. Compact, paired tips enable access to tight grooves while maintaining a consistent working angle.

Suitable for

• Removing and installing external circlips on shafts and housings
• Removing and installing internal circlips in bores and recesses
• Automotive repair and brake, transmission or engine retaining ring service
• Machinery maintenance and industrial equipment servicing
• General workshop tasks requiring precise manipulation of retaining rings

Key specifications

• Overall length: 250 mm
• Tip type: slim, paired tips for circlip engagement
• Handle design: elongated handles for improved leverage and reach

How to use

Select the appropriate pliers type for the circlip you are working with—external pliers for circlips that fit over shafts and internal pliers for circlips seated in bores. Position the plier tips into the circlip holes or under the circlip ends, apply steady pressure to expand or compress the ring as required, and then carefully withdraw or seat the circlip into its groove. Maintain a controlled motion to avoid sudden release and ensure the circlip is properly seated before removing the pliers.

Usage recommendations

Before starting work, wear eye protection and ensure the work area is stable. Inspect the plier tips for wear or damage and choose the pliers with the best fit for the specific circlip to minimize slippage. Use steady, controlled force rather than sudden jerks. After use, clean any debris from the tips and store the pliers in a dry place to preserve alignment and tip condition.
