There are a thousand different types of wrenches out there and most of them are redundent. This in not one of them! The Knipex Plier Wrench is one wrench that will replace a whole toolbox. It’s not a gimick wrench like the “bionic” wrench. This one works and does things you always wanted in a wrench.
Won't damage fittings
So what’s so great about it?
- The smooth jaws grip all parallel surfaces tightly without damaging the surface. They will be you go-to pliers for finish plumbing.
- They will grip a large range of sizes. These pliers work so well they will replace a full set of standard and metric open-end wrenches.
- They have a 10 to 1 grip transmission ratio so you can use them to grip, hold, press and bend workpieces. You can even use them as a small vice.
- The zero backlash jaw surface (parallel faces) pressure prevents damage to edges of sensitive components.
- Instantly adjustable at the touch of a button. You don’t have to remove the tool from the workpiece to adjust it.
- The instant adjustment will let you use it just like an open-ended ratchet.
- Chrome vanadium electric steel, forged, oil-hardened. This tool will last a long as the ones I inherited from my great grandfather!

Knipex plierwrench has to be one of the best tools since the combination wrench! As a hevy equipment mechanic, working in the field, I would recommend this tool to anyone, from shadetree mechanic to professional. When used right, this tool will impress anyone, especially when it comes to hydraulic fittings. Thank you knipex for this wonderful tool.
Pliers are designed according to the principle of the two-armed lever which makes it possible to convert lower force (e.g. manual force on the shanks of the pliers) into a greater force which in the case of pliers is effective in the gripping jaws or in the cutting edge.
