Knipex Alligator

The Knipex Alligator offers good access to the workpiece due to its slim head and joint area. Compared to conventional water pump pliers of the same length, it provides more power and comfort, with a 9-step adjustment that allows for a gripping force that is 30% higher. The tool is self-locking on pipes and screws, preventing slippage from the workpiece and requiring minimal hand strength. The gripping surfaces feature specially hardened teeth with a hardness of about 61 HRC, ensuring high wear resistance and a stable grip. Its cage joint design increases stability through double guidance, and the robust construction is resistant to dirt. Additionally, a pinch protection feature prevents the operator's fingers from getting caught.
