Pliers for Seeger circlips MODECO MN-20-726, straight tips, 150 mm

Straight-tip circlip pliers MODECO MN-20-726, 150 mm length, are designed for installing and removing Seeger (snap) rings in confined or recessed locations. The tool’s straight, narrow jaws allow precise engagement with internal and external circlips while the compact 150 mm body provides comfortable manual control for maintenance, repair and assembly tasks in automotive and machinery applications.

Advantages

The straight tips give direct access to circlips located in deep bores or tight assemblies, reducing the need to disassemble surrounding components. The 150 mm overall length balances reach and control for one-handed operation. Hardened jaw surfaces ensure reliable grip on circlips while the pliers’ ergonomic handles improve handling during repetitive tasks. The construction is suitable for routine workshop use and field service work.

Suitable for

• Installing and removing internal circlips in shafts, housings and bores
• Handling external snap rings on shafts, axles and pulleys
• Automotive brake, transmission and suspension maintenance where circlips are used
• General machinery repair and preventive maintenance tasks

How to use

Select the pliers with straight tips for circlips located in narrow or recessed positions. Position the tips into the circlip holes or behind the ring ends, apply steady inward or outward pressure as required to compress or expand the ring, and then carefully withdraw or fit the circlip into its groove. Keep fingers away from the ring’s path and maintain a stable grip on the handles to prevent the circlip from slipping or springing free.

Usage recommendations

Use protective eyewear when working with circlips and inspect the pliers before use for wear or damage. For best results, clean contact surfaces and avoid using excessive force; if a circlip is corroded or stuck, apply appropriate penetrating lubricant and proceed with caution.
