Circlip Pliers
Internal and external circlip pliers in straight and 90-degree jaws, quoted by the bore or shaft range they cover. The two types are not interchangeable: internal pliers compress a ring into a bore, external pliers expand one onto a shaft, and using the wrong one damages the ring and the groove.

What decides the price
In order of impactDifferent direction of travel, different tip form. This is the first field on the part number.
A plier covering 12–25 mm will not seat a ring in a 30 mm bore. The range is the specification, not the overall length.
Straight jaws work where there is room to push. Ninety-degree jaws reach into a recess and are what most gearbox work needs.
Worth checking before you order
It spreads the ring instead of compressing it, and the ring leaves the groove at speed.
Ring ranges overlap little. Two pliers cover what one cannot.

Questions
Do the ranges overlap between sizes?+
Barely. Tell us the bore or shaft diameter and we quote the plier that covers it.
Are replacement tips available?+
Quoted separately where the model takes them. Fixed-tip pliers are replaced as a unit.
Send the specification, not the product name.
Grade, size, thread standard and coating are what a quote is built from. A product name alone produces a price that changes twice before the order.
