KNIPEX water pump pliers

Features of KNIPEX water pump pliers

KNIPEX water pump pliers are made for situations in which grip, control and strength are important. The best-known series is the KNIPEX Cobra, a high-tech water pump plier with a quick-adjust jaw and multiple adjustment positions. This allows you to quickly adjust the pliers to different diameters, without losing much time during the job. The teeth grip pipes, nuts and couplings firmly, allowing you to turn or clamp with control.

Cobra, Alligator and extra-slim models

KNIPEX Cobra water pump pliers are available in different sizes, from the compact Cobra XS to larger models for more grip and strength. For work in tight spaces, there are extra-slim Cobra versions, making it easier to reach pipes, couplings and nuts. In addition, there is the KNIPEX Alligator: a robust water pump plier for everyday use, with a firm grip and simple adjustment.

Material, maintenance and storage

KNIPEX water pump pliers are made of high-quality steel and, depending on the model, have plastic-coated handles or comfort handles. Clean the pliers after use and store them in a dry toolbox, tool roll or plier set. A drop of oil on the joint keeps the adjustment smooth. Combine a water pump plier with a plier wrench or diagonal cutter for a complete basic kit.
