Pliers Knipex KP-8701150 Red 150mm 145g

The Knipex KP-8701150 pliers (150 mm, 145 g) combine precise adjustability with robust construction. Designed for gripping pipes, nuts and other workpieces, these pliers offer fine adjustment directly on the workpiece, hardened gripping surfaces and a secure box-joint design to ensure stable performance and long service life.

Advantages

Adjustment is performed at the touch of a button directly on the workpiece, enabling quick adaptation to different sizes. A fine adjustment feature provides optimum adaptation and a comfortable handle width. The pliers self-lock on pipes and nuts to prevent slipping and reduce the hand force required. Gripping surfaces have special hardened teeth (approx. 61 HRC) for low wear and reliable holding. The box-joint design with a double guide increases stability, and a guard reduces the risk of pinched fingers. Constructed from chrome vanadium electric steel, forged and oil-hardened for durability.

Suitable for

• Gripping and turning pipes and fittings

How to use

Open the pliers and press the adjustment button while positioning the jaws on the workpiece; release the button to lock the selected jaw position. Use the fine adjustment to achieve the desired clamping width and ensure the hardened teeth engage the surface firmly. For pipes and nuts, allow the self-locking mechanism to seat before applying turning force. Keep hands clear of the guard area to avoid pinching.

Usage recommendations

For longest life and safe operation, clean the tool after use, apply light oil to the joint periodically, and inspect the gripping teeth for wear. Use the pliers within their intended size range and avoid excessive force beyond normal gripping and turning tasks.
