Pliers NEO tools 01-091, slip-joint style, rubber handle, length 145 mm, weight 124 g

NEO tools 01-091 slip-joint pliers are a compact professional hand tool with a total length of 145 mm and a weight of 124 g. Constructed from chrome vanadium steel, these pliers offer durability and resistance to wear for general gripping, bending and holding tasks. The slip-joint design allows two jaw positions for increased versatility, while the rubber-coated handles provide an improved non-slip grip and user comfort during repetitive use. The tool is suitable for small, precise jobs in household maintenance, light workshop work and trade-specific applications such as electrical and plumbing tasks.

Advantages

The chrome vanadium steel construction ensures long-term strength and corrosion resistance appropriate for workshop and on-site use. The slip-joint mechanism provides two adjustable jaw positions for handling items of different sizes, and the compact 145 mm length gives access to confined spaces. Rubber-coated handles improve grip and control, reduce hand fatigue and enhance safety when manipulating small parts. The manufacturer's 25-year warranty confirms the tool’s build quality and expected service life.

• General gripping, bending and holding of small components
• Electrical and plumbing maintenance where compact pliers are needed
• DIY repairs, assembly work and light workshop tasks

How to use

Select the appropriate jaw position on the slip joint to match the width of the workpiece, then place the curved tips onto the external circlip or the component to be gripped. Squeeze the rubber-coated handles evenly to compress or hold the item; for removal or fitting of rings, maintain steady pressure and guide the ring into or out of its groove. Use the compact length to reach into confined or crowded areas, and avoid applying torque beyond the tool’s intended use to prevent deformation of the tips.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the pliers before each use for signs of damage or wear, keep the joint clean and lightly lubricated for smooth operation, and use eye protection when working with snap rings to guard against sudden release. Store the tool dry to preserve the chrome vanadium finish and maintain the rubber coating’s condition.
