Description
Overview:
The O-Clip Crimping Pliers with Plastic Coated Handles are a robust hand tool for fitting and securing ear and O-type clamps on hoses and small pipes used across vehicles, plant, garden machinery, and general mechanical equipment. Made from hardened steel for strength and long service life, they use a side-closing jaw action that delivers an even, reliable crimp without twisting the clamp. The plastic-coated handles provide a comfortable, non-slip grip for better control during repetitive work. Ideal for fuel, coolant, water, and air hose connections where ear or O-clips are specified. Compact and easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces, these pliers suit both professional workshops and DIY users. Model number: MPN 505 145.
