For safely opening and closing click clamps with and without locking stop

For click clamps without limit stop and with limit stop in the locking mechanism

There are basically two different designs of click clamps: those without limit stop in the locking mechanism, and those that have a limit stop in the locking mechanism. Because of the great differences, you usually need a separate tool for each of these systems.

Knipex has developed one pair of pliers for both types of click clamps - with asymmetrical gripping jaws that can rotate 360° - in a pursuit to find a solution here too.

Optimal accessibility even in confined spaces

Thanks to the 360° rotating gripping jaws, all standard click clamps can be opened and held firmly with the Knipex 85 51 250 C hose clamp pliers – even where there is limited space. Click clamps are frequently used where there is little room to use tools: on combustion engines. Space is tight in the engine compartment, particularly with modern, compact engines. The hose clamp pliers from Knipex have a slim design, and so are ideal here.

Softly serrated jaw for gently detaching hoses that have become stuck

If, for example, a click clamp that has been attached to a vacuum actuator for a long time needs to be removed, the hose may be stuck. Deposits and thermal interactions have, over time, joined it tightly to the fitting. With conventional water pump pliers, you would either damage the hose or crush the fitting. The jaw of the Knipex 85 51 250 C hose clamp pliers is softly serrated, enabling hoses that have become stuck to be powerfully and simultaneously gently detached.
