Pliers MODECO MN-20-738 bent for internal circlips 200 mm

Bent pliers MODECO MN-20-738 are hand tools designed specifically for installing and removing internal circlips (Seeger rings). With a total length of 200 mm and ergonomically bent tips, these pliers provide access to confined or recessed grooves where straight pliers cannot reach. The tool is intended for tasks in automotive repair, mechanical maintenance and general workshop use that require a secure grip and controlled pressure on internal retaining rings.

Advantages

The bent tip geometry improves reach and visibility when working inside housings, bearing bores or other tight assemblies. A 200 mm length balances accessibility and leverage, allowing controlled force without excessive hand strain. The tool is suitable for repeated professional use as well as DIY applications, offering a practical solution for handling internal circlips in various maintenance scenarios.

Suitable for

• Installing and removing internal circlips in engines and gearboxes
• Accessing circlip grooves in bearing housings and shafts
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly in confined spaces
• Workshop maintenance and vehicle servicing

Key specifications

• Tool type: bent pliers for internal circlips
• Overall length: 200 mm
• Tip design: bent/angled tips for recessed access
• Intended use: installing and removing internal retaining rings (circlips)
• Application areas: automotive, mechanical maintenance, general workshop use

How to use

Select the pliers and confirm that the tips engage the circlip securely. Insert the bent tips into the circlip holes or notches, apply steady inward pressure to compress the ring, and carefully maneuver it out of or into the groove. Maintain a stable grip on the handles and control the compression to avoid deformation of the circlip or slippage. When working inside housings, ensure adequate lighting and, if possible, support the workpiece to prevent sudden movement.

Usage recommendations

Use protective eyewear when removing or installing circlips to guard against sudden release. Inspect tips before use for wear or damage and avoid applying excessive force that could distort the circlip. For very small or very large rings, confirm that the pliers' tip geometry and length are appropriate for secure engagement.
