According to tool specialist Knipex, its TwinGrip slip joint pliers are the optimum solution for stuck bolts and screws, even if they have a worn profile.
Thanks to the combination of front and side gripping functions, a resilient box-joint and serrated push-button adjustment, the range of applications for this tool in the workshop is broad. These very slim TwinGrip pliers with narrow turning zone for quickly tightening and loosening screws, enable powerful gripping and ergonomically comfortable working even in confined engine spaces.
The high-grip front jaw has robust teeth and a high gear ratio at the tip of the mouth. Serrated gripping surfaces in the pliers axis support safe gripping from the front, while the high gear ratio allows it to easily grip, tighten and loosen even heavily worn screw heads. Even flat workpieces can be reliably gripped from the front thanks to the asymmetrical pipe grip with its 3-point system. Side-griping is just as powerful while the serrated gripping hole firmly holds materials and hexagonal profiles in this position.
The geometry of the 2-zone gripping jaws is optimised for maximum grip when loosening and tightening screws, thanks to the opposing alignment of the teeth. A slip joint with five push-button settings can be precisely adjusted to large front and side gripping capacities for diameters and widths across flats from four to 22 millimetres. The push-button engages securely and thus prevents unintentional shifting. A pinch stop ensures safety against crushing injuries.
