Customers are satisfied with the performance of the pliers. They mention that it works well for the job, the tips are easy to change out, and it's a good tool for occasional usage. The plier is extremely versatile, and very effective in releasing the tension applied to the ring. The multiple options for jaws are quickly interchangeable, and the switch is a bit temperamental.

93 customers mention73 positive20 negative

Customers like the fit of the pliers. They say the three different sizes helps to keep the most used setup ready. The plier fits their large hands and the soft grip is a plus. The black tips fit the target snap-ring perfectly and are easy to swap out using the proper size Allen key. The tool covers a pretty good range of ring sizes and is the best for small snap rings.

114 customers mention70 positive44 negative

Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the pliers. Some mention that it's very easy to use and well made, making the job way easier. However, others say that the set screw on one of the jaws would not tighten down, the pricked tips always slip when they're trying to use them, and the jaw is very loose.

Customers have mixed opinions about the pins in the pliers set. Some like that it comes with different size and removable pins to accommodate different sized snap rings. They say the pin is nice but it does bend a little bit when pinching a heavy item. However, others say that the pin are slightly offset and can easily be lost. They also mention that the hole bore is very small.

"...It comes with different size pins, but I have not had a need to swap them out at the moment. I'm sure they are fine...." Read more

"...Also the holes are not drilled at the same angle. And then....the jaws do not close enough to allow small, small snap rings to be removed...." Read more

"...Having replaceable pins is also a big plus, the tool comes with several sizes and angles of pins and the replacement pins aren't expensive...." Read more

"...A really nice feature is being able to put in two different tips and being able to turn the 90° tips to different angles to get clips that are old..." Read more

Not great for small, small snap rings
3 Stars
Not great for small, small snap rings
Dislike: The build of the plier jaws was something I would expect from a chinese factory. In the photo here you can notice the holes are drilled on different places in the jaws. Also the holes are not drilled at the same angle. And then....the jaws do not close enough to allow small, small snap rings to be removed.LIKE: The pliers are built in such a manner that I can disassemble them and grind/file the jaws so they will be able to remove small snap rings.I have removed half of the gapping so far and have it down to a 2mm gap as pictured. But this was as after 45 minutes of disassemble-file-assemble.... disassemble-file-assemble....disassemble-file-assemble. I still can't remove the snap ring pictured yet, but I think I will be able to get there in the end and these pliers will work good then.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great tool, versatile and a great value.
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2018
In the photo is a 6 mm snap ring. If anyone has ever tried to remove and install a ring of that size (SMALL) knows that it will most likely be found by the vacuum after it flys off into the room somewhere. This is a GREAT snap ring plier on many levels. First it comes with several different tip sizes and also has straight and 90 degree tips as well. They can be swapped out easily with the enclosed Allen wrench, all of them fit into a little pouch to keep them together. The spring tension is just right, low enough to provide feedback when they engage to ring. A flip of the toggle changes from inside to outside rings easily. For inside rings you have about an 1.25” reach and they will go that far up to .75” in diameter. The grips are plasticoated and easy to keep control of. Best thing other than they work great? They are made in the USA. I own several snap ring pliers, I bought these to replace bearings on my bandsaw blade guides. My other ring pliers require you to change the handles for inside or outside and they have fixed diameter tips. As you can tell I’m super pleased with this tool. It’s worth every penny and it’s not a whole lot of penny’s.
