KNIPEX Water Pump 22-in Construction Tongue and Groove Pliers

No more time-consuming test-adjusting to achieve the correct size. With the KNIPEX Cobra XXL water pump pliers, you can simply position the upper jaw to the workpiece, push the button, and close the lower jaw. The 22 In. Cobra XXL (model 87 01 560) offers the power and comfort of water pump pliers while being lighter in weight and having a greater gripping capacity than comparable pipe wrenches. It can grip a 4-1/2 In. pipe coupling and weighs as much as 2 In. pipe wrenches, which have a much lower gripping capacity. And its 22 In. size makes it the biggest pliers around. The unique self-locking adjustment and induction hardened gripping teeth means that once it's set, it stays. There's no slipping and no need to waste strength squeezing the pliers — ensuring operator safety and more efficient work. Cobra's unique jaw configuration can grip any shape object — flat, round, hex, or square. It also eliminates nut burring to avoid stripping pipes, nuts, or bolts. Additionally, the Cobra's newly redesigned adjustment provides 30 percent more gripping capacity than previous models. A simple push of the patented push button adjustment maintains jaw size setting and gives you the correct size opening every time. Just position the upper jaw to the workpiece, push the button, adjust the opening, and close the lower jaw. And it's easily done with just one hand for trouble-free operation in confined spaces. Cobra water pump pliers are constructed from chrome vanadium electric steel, an innovative high alloy, oil tempered steel that ensures longevity. Their thin head design helps you get into spaces other pliers can't, so there's no need to change tools when working in tight confines. And you'll also be able to say goodbye to blood blisters you get with other gripping pliers. With safety its first priority, KNIPEX has designed a built-in pinch guard that prevents blood blisters on your hand.
