And tackling such a tool should be easy and not an additional job. The Cobra Plier, unlike Conventional Pliers, comes with a button to help you adjust the tool as per your requirement with just a click. The button helps is fast adjustment of the jaw of the Plier that saves your time and energy. Stays firm on the object It is very essential for a Plier to stay firm and hold onto the object without slipping to get the job done faster. However, more often than not the pliers tend to slip off causing delay. Knipex has solved this issue by introducing Self-locking technology on its Cobra Pliers. Now it’s easy to grip the object without slipping and less hand force. And 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. Assured Durability Cobra water pump pliers are constructed from chrome vanadium electric steel, an innovative high alloy, oil tempered steel that ensures longevity. The Cobra Plier has specially designed hardened teeth in the jaw with a capacity up to 1-1/2-inch for round and 1-27/64-inch for hex, offering a stable grip. These features ensure that the tool can withstand a heavy load and prevents the wear and tear of the Plier.
