Product Introduction
The 90° Bent Tip Internal Snap Ring Plier is the ultimate professional tool for installing and removing internal retaining rings in tight or obstructed spaces. Unlike straight pliers, the 90-degree angled jaw easily bypasses obstacles to reach circlip grooves inside deep bores and cylinders. Heat-treated tips offer exceptional strength and resistance to bending, while the smooth return spring guarantees precise, effortless control during repetitive operations.
Product Features
- 90° Angled Tip Design: Engineered specifically for tight clearance or deep-bore applications where straight-tip pliers cannot reach.
- Special Heat-Treated Tips: Tips are heat-treated for superior hardness, resisting wear and tip deformation under heavy load.
- Smooth Return Spring: Built-in spring automatically opens the jaws, facilitating smooth, continuous one-handed operation.
- Precise Tip Sizing: Features 1.6mm, 1.8mm, and 2.0mm tip diameters, accurately covering circlip ranges from 10mm to 40mm.
- Ergonomic Anti-Slip Grip: Cushioned dip-coated handle provides a comfortable, slip-resistant grip even in oily environments.

FAQ
Q1: When should I choose bent-tip snap ring pliers over straight-tip ones?
A1: When the circlip is located deep within a housing or obstructed by components like gears or shafts, the 90° bent tip allows angled access where a straight plier cannot reach.
Q3: Why is grinding the plier tips prohibited in the warning?
A2: The outer layer of the tip is heat-treated for extreme hardness. Grinding removes this hardened layer, exposing softer steel underneath and causing the tip to bend or break easily during use.
Q3: What are the main differences between W 28716, W 28717, and W 28718?
A3: They differ in overall length (125mm-220mm), tip diameter (1.6mm-2.0mm), and compatible circlip range (10-20mm, 10-30mm, 10-40mm). Choose based on your specific circlip dimensions.
Q4: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?
A4: For standard neutral stock, the MOQ is 1 master carton (60 pcs). For OEM custom branding or packaging, the MOQ is typically 1,200 pcs.
Q5: Are samples available before placing a bulk order?
A5: Yes, samples can be provided for hardness and usability testing. Sample costs can be refunded or credited toward your future mass production order.
