Slip-joint pliers Knipex Cobra 87 02 300 are high-tech water pump pliers designed for versatile gripping tasks. The tool features an adjustable joint that allows quick adaptation to different workpiece sizes without time-consuming presetting.

Hardened, precision-machined jaws provide secure, slip-resistant gripping on pipes and fasteners. The 300 mm length gives good leverage while the lightweight construction (approximately 580 g) maintains handling comfort during extended use.

How to use

Position the upper jaw of the Knipex Cobra against the workpiece, press the release button and slide the lower jaw until it contacts the part.

Recommendations

Use the pliers for their intended purposes—gripping, turning and holding pipes and fasteners within the specified capacities. Regularly inspect jaws for wear and keep the joint clean and lightly lubricated. Do not use the tool as a hammer or lever beyond its rated size limits.
