It's finally here. Introducing the new KNIPEX 12 in. Pliers Wrench, now offered in a black finish. It has all the features you know and depend upon of the original pliers wrench along with new improvements such as an increased jaw capacity, increased adjustment positions, a laser etched adjustment scale, a thinner jaw profile and an improved grip. Replaces a full set of inch and metric open end wrenches. Smooth jaws for damage free installation of plated fittings - working directly on chrome. Adjustable tightening tool. Excellent for gripping, holding, pressing and bending applications. Zero backlash jaw surface pressure prevents damage to edges of sensitive components. 24 adjustment positions at the touch of a button directly on the workpiece. Parallel jaws allow infinitely variable gripping of all widths to the specified maximum size. Reliable catching of the hinge bolt: no unintentional shifting. The action of the jaws allows bolted connections to be tightened and released quickly using the ratchet principle. Lever transmission greater than 10-1 for strong gripping power. With adjustment scale for presetting the adjustment position. Chrome vanadium electric steel; forged, oil-hardened.
