Knipex Plier Wrenches, Multi-Component Grip

Top quality tools I have multiple sizes of these and the cobras with teeth can not fault them and would not buy anything else. I am plumber and use them every day without fail

Great to use on SWA glands that doesnt round off the edges and mark the gland. After using these its difficult to go back to grips with teeth

These pliers are amazing. The flat, smooth jaws mean no damage. You also get a lot of pressure with very little effort. I have had zero slippage with these

Fantastic pump pliers, they have a good , firm grip and seem a lot more harder than other makes too and so far I have had no slippage either. 1 of my pet hates is when a tool slips and makes a mess of the fittings

I brought the VDE version of these not really needed but wanted the protection just in case. Got them to make off armoured easier as I found my others kept slipping or when adjusting they scratched or marked the finish on the glands.

These are that easy to adjust that theyre great to release and regrip. With the flat mouth it prevents slippage and prevents marking the gland or accessory.

Comfortable to use and easy to adjust. Brought one set at first liked them that much I brought another set makes making off SWA so much easier

I bought these (250mm)on a whim earlier last year, and initially didn't like them as they take a bit of getting used to compared to cobra grips. Having persevered, I actually find they're one of my daily go to tools when plumbing, be it for 15mm compression nuts, as you can ratchet action on them without damage, up to pump union nuts, as the jaws open up to 52mm

Ive had my eyes on a pair of these for a while but didnt want them to be an expensive mistake! I borrowed a pair from a fellow engineer I was working with and they were great, easy to adjust and didnt slip. Will be buying myself a pair now.

I own a few of these grips from knipex in different sizes and style. I have the 15° offset handle which is a knuckle saver for sure. Having smooth jaws on these makes that great for me as an electrician because you don't damage the glands wether plastic or brass.

For years I lived with 2 pairs of Banco Pump Grips and got on with them Ok except for the occasional pinched finger. Then I progressed to Knipex Cobras so no more pinching fingers but now I'm using these and they're game changers - parallel action and non marring jaws make them perfect for decorative finishes and cable glands etc

Very well built. Was a purchase on a whim and I’ve used it a little and it’s very good at what it does.
It grips as hard as you can squeeze it making it superior to adjustables which can slip and rely on pressure points that can round the nut which you don’t want on visible or chrome pieces.

Not a plumber but these come in very handy for any nuts and bolts. The adjustment on them is great and easy. I like that once it's set it doesn't slip. Also since the jaws open but keep the desired size when you close them up again means you can use them one-handed for awkward fittings. They're just one of those tools that works well and your glad you've got it in the bag. Not cheap, but definitely one of the best quality hand tools I've got. Got the 180mm and 300mm, handy having two for tightening nuts on valves so you can keep the strain off the pipes.

Brilliant tool, replaces grips and adjustable spanners. Doesn't mark chrome fittings as the jaws are smooth and remain parallel. Not cheap but well made and very useful. If I lost mine I'd buy another set in an instant.

Bought these recently and I’ve been very impressed, the best of both worlds of the grips and adjustables, makes life that little bit easier. Every little helps.

Great tool, got them in many sizes, makes it a lot quicker and easier to make off glands and conduit, and even though they have a flat jaw they don’t really tend to slip or scratch, you can get the rubber caps for them though

Knipex is top quality but pricey tools, has to be said, but you'll not get anything much better. It has a racheting motion if you can learn to use the technique. They should have made it springloaded to aid that motion, perhaps they will in future.

Get a couple pair of these and ditch your adjustable spanners. Can get more grip and torque. Also dont have to take tool completely off like you do with spanner. Great quality as always from knipex.

Perfect tool for them chrome fittings especially when doing a lot of fixtures, as they don't chew things up like traditional grips bit on the pricey side though but good tool

Great tool for glands, flare nuts, bolts etc. Bit pricy but in my opinion worth it. Replaced my 6" adjustable for these and they hold up no bother. I'd definitely recommend these

This tool is great for using nuts and glands that you don’t want to scratch or ruin like you would with normal grips, not sure they’re worth it for the price tag that comes with them tho however they’re a great quality tool.

Very good product but way over priced.
Had bahco grips that are less than half the price be better than knipex.
Was told that these would be the best possible grips and was very disappointed with how much they cost.

Personally wouldn't buy them again.

Great grips, use on flat faced nuts on valves and controls, well built tools which I find virtually indestructible, have about five sets in differing sizes, all over two years old, still going strong with a lot of use

I have the 180mm & 250mm pairs of these, they are expensive, I got them for £36 & £47 respectively. I use mine mainly for glanding cables as the smooth jaws don’t wreck the gland nuts, also the smaller set has been useful for working 6 - 10mm nuts & bolts so has replaced a small number of standard spanners. I do really like using them, they are built extremely well, and they open far wider than a similar sized adjustable spanner. If you can stomach the price, go for it, you’ll not regret it!

Great for use on brass cable glands and large lock nuts no need to carry stupid size spanners or slip with adjustable but they are pricey for what you get ...........

Awesome grips, The smooth plate is great for Chrome nuts to avoid damage.
The larger set 24" are a little difficult to use as they open so wide.

These are a great set of grips. Be cautious though when buying in mine, they are quite expensive (but well worth it) and appear larger than they actually are so when I ordered mine thinking they would be normal human sized, they were in fact teeny tiny ones, but in fact I’ve come to love them and uses them all the time!

Really good set of grips, find them easy to use and it’s a nice fit in your hand. Best to use on chrome I find as it doesn’t scratch like the usual teethed grips

I have found these to be great pliers the way they open and close is completely different to usual pliers.
They close smooth and give excellent grip on smooth nuts like and adjustable spinner but easier to use and adjust.

Absolutely love my flat faced jaw grips so handy for good leverage on nuts.
The best of both worlds in grips and adjustable spanner

One of my favourite tools, not cheap but worth it.
Great for using on chrome nuts without damaging them and the adjustment mechanism is easy to use.

This pair of grips Is one of my most favourite tools in my tool bag, I will use it pretty much for everything, The build quality is never let me down it’s long-lasting I’ve had this item for around four years.
It has a hefty pricetag and when you’ve left it in a customers house you come to realise that you may never see your tall again and then the customer will call you and tell you that they have received the taller now give you back it is an amazing feeling to know there is some honest and genuine people there to reunite yourself with that tool

Great tool really help with a nut that has been rounded off where a wrench won't work these will and the power you can put on a nut without these slipping is phenomenal.

Only got the small pair and only had month but seem ok not sure if they are worth the asking price those think will stick to my normal grips unles these come down in price a bit

Have a couple pairs of these in different sizes. Good for chrome fittings as dosnt mark them. Good quality build.

Use 2 of these mainly for swa glands, they don't damage the glands at all due to the flat jaws. Also thin width of jaws.Push button is better than a channel lock system and allows for greater control of jaw opening size. High quality like all knipex tools will last lifetime.

Great for using on glands. Narrow sleak design means they can fit in tight spaces and will not slip. Excellent build quality as alway with knipex

Great grips with anti marking. Ideal for when working on chrome etc. Definitely worth having in your kit

Strong grips available in a variety of sizes perfect for chrome as these will not damage the nut, a must for your toolbox.

Really good, well built pliers. Strong grip, non marking. Good for finishing. A tad expensive but worth the cost.

Quality built pliers from knipex, not solid grip and feels solid in the hand. Great for a multitude of tasks but as others have stated come into the own when used in chrome.

A thing of beauty. I have at least one of most sizes of these and the 300mm are the most used tool in my bag.

Just bought a pair of these. Fantastic to use and especially good to use on chrome fittings as it doesn't leave a mark on the fitting.

Amazing, where have you been all of my life!!
They live in my service bag and are used almost daily, most deserving of a full 5 star review

Have various sizes. Dont lnow how ive managed with out them excellent bit of kit. Reasonably priced.

Great especially for use on chrome fittings

I think these are a genuine replacement for an adjustable spanner but I use them as an extra tool to supplement the other grips and spanners I have. Expensive but worth it, just.

Bought these and within a couple of days the rubber handles stared coming off. Not impressed so returned. Overpriced so stuck with Bahco.

Great tools good quality premium price but worth the money

Very good quality

A very useful tool and very precise

So easy to use a geat alternative to an adjustable wrench
