No more time-consuming test-adjusting to achieve the correct
size. With the extra-slim Knipex Cobra water pump pliers (model
87 51 250), you can simply position the upper jaw to the
workpiece, push the button, and close the lower jaw. 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.
This extra-slim model with its long, narrow jaws is ideal for
service and maintenance, equipment repair, automotive, and
general industry applications. You'll get good access to the
workpiece due to the very slim construction of the head and joint
area.
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.

Quality in Every Detail
-----------------------
Sometimes we give our pliers a really hard time. We try to
destroy them to find out what makes them good and long lasting.
Because we don't want to leave anything to chance, we take a
long, careful look.
The steel Knipex uses is precisely hardened with a maximum of 0.8
percent carbon and defined parts of chromium and vanadium,
guaranteeing optimum cutting performance and service life — even
though it requires special production and costs a bit more. But
our high product demands require this.
The rivet of our high-leverage diagonal cutter also has to stand
up to a lot of stress. That's why we literally give it backup: we
forge it straight onto the pliers. This means extra effort as we
have to precision mill the rivet to a few hundredth millimeters.
But satisfied users are worth this effort.
Knipex also looks closely at the small details. The angles, the
sharpness, the hardness, the toughness of the cutting edges. The
precision and smooth movement of the joint. The handle design and
the finish. We keep reviewing these subjects, we research, we
test, and we improve our pliers.
