Does what it’s supposed to do.

I tried several snap ring pliers I’ve owned for 40+ years but none were up to removing the large and stiff snap rings retaining the clutch and coil of my Honda A/C compressor. I bought these Channel Lock’s at HD and they worked like a charm. Well worth the money to save busted knuckles and swear words. Nice that the replaceable jaws add versatility. I used the biggest ones on my A/C job.

Nice tool. The tips are great quality and fairly long for those tough to reach areas. They are also color coded in sets.

Easy to use and strong

These special pliers worked perfectly for our application. In addition, they have small switch between the handles for “ON” and “OFF”. We had a 1″ axle and our retaining ring was quite large. These plies made taking it off very easy.

Worked well on a couple of strong snap rings. I needed the extra leverage that this tool provided. Worth the extra money over the smaller, cheaper versions.
