Energy-saving, tough and slim XL water pump pliers

Full torque on pipes and nuts thanks to self-locking effect

After it is pressed, the Knipex Alligator XL holds onto pipes and nuts under load by itself. This self-locking effect is possible thanks to the special jaw geometry developed by Knipex. The user does not need to press the handles together, but can convert all energy directly into torque. This property pays off in particular when loosening very large bolted connections (up to 95 mm wrench opening) that have become stuck.

Compact design and big gripping capacity

Plumbing and heating work is often performed in confined spaces. The arched adjustment slot and slim head shape of the Knipex Alligator are an advantage here. As compact as these pliers are, the possible grip widths are surprisingly large due to the 11-step locking adjustment: pipes up to 90 mm in diameter (3 1/2 inches) and nuts up to 95 mm wrench opening.

In the XL version, the Knipex Alligator is particularly suitable for industrial assembly, for farms and for use on large construction vehicles and trucks.

Stable and wear-resistant - also when used outside

The Knipex Alligator with its box joint design and double guide offers very high stability for professional use. The teeth on the gripping surfaces have been induction hardened to approx. 61 HRC. This guarantees a very long tool life with an ever "biting" hold on the component. The Knipex Alligator XL is sturdily built, easy to clean and thus an ideal tool for working outdoors. The pliers are black and phosphate-treated. The head of the pliers has a precision finish. The handles of the pliers are coated with non-slip plastic.
