Internal Circlip Pliers Jonnesway AG010004, bent tips, for 6–15 mm internal retaining rings

Jonnesway Internal Circlip Pliers AG010004 with bent tips are precision hand tools designed for installation and removal of internal retaining rings (circlips) with diameters from 6 to 15 mm. The bent tips provide improved access to circlips located inside bores and housings, allowing the user to expand the ring reliably while maintaining a controlled grip. These pliers are intended for technicians and assemblers who require a compact, accurate tool for working in confined spaces.

Advantages

The bent-tip design gives better clearance and line of sight when working inside housings and blind bores. Hardened tips resist wear and maintain shape for repeated use on small internal rings. Ergonomically shaped handles deliver a secure grip and improved control during expansion and positioning of circlips. The tool is sized specifically for 6–15 mm rings, providing a focused solution for small-diameter internal retaining rings without the need for interchangeable tips.

Suitable for

• Installing and removing internal retaining rings in engines, gearboxes and small gear mechanisms
• Maintenance and assembly of pumps, valves and bearings with internal circlips
• Small appliance and electronics repair where access inside housings is required
• Precision mechanical assembly and workshop tasks involving 6–15 mm internal rings

Key specifications

• Applicable circlip diameter range: 6–15 mm
• Tip style: bent tips for improved access inside bores
• Tool type: internal circlip (snap ring) pliers
• Handle: ergonomic, non-slip grip for controlled operation
• Tip material: hardened working ends to resist wear (factory treated)

How to use

Place the bent tips into the internal retaining ring holes, ensuring a secure seating before applying force. Squeeze the handles evenly to expand the circlip just enough to clear the bore, then slide the ring into or out of its groove. Work slowly and maintain alignment to prevent the ring from slipping off the tips. After use, release tension carefully and store the pliers in a dry place to protect the tips from corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use eye protection when working with circlips to prevent injury from sudden release. Select the correct pliers (6–15 mm range) for the ring size to avoid deformation of the circlip or damage to the tool. For heavily corroded or stuck rings, apply penetrating lubricant and work incrementally rather than forcing the ring to prevent breakage.
