• RGS Attenborough (Tools) offers a range of hi-tech circlip and lock ring pliers.
The pliers, models 1221-S and the 1234 are supplied with a selection of durable alloy steel replaceable tips and are each capable of performing the work of the 10 "limited use" pliers which would be needed to service the same range of ring sizes.
The pliers are produced to US engineering and quality control standards and have spring handles with heavy-duty cushion grips providing a high mechanical advantage.
The 1221-S can be used for internal circlips from 3mm to 26mm and external circlips from 8mrn to 26mm. This model has an adjustable limit stop so that the rings cannot be over expanded or contracted. The 1234 is suitable for internal sizes from lOrnm to 48mrn and external sizes from 7mm to 48mm.
A simple push-botton system converts the pliers for internal or external use.
The tips are colour coded for easy reference and are supplied both straight and with a 90 degree bend.
The kits are packed in a plastic pouch. Model 1221-S has a list price of E18.72 (inclusive of Vat) and Model 1234 has a list price of E24.53 (exclusive of Vat).
