Expert By Facom Circlip Pliers are made for fitting and removing retaining rings on shafts and in bores. They suit workshop, automotive and general engineering jobs where a circlip has to be released cleanly and refitted securely.

The selection covers internal and external circlip pliers in straight and bent (90-degree) patterns. You can buy individual pliers for a specific job or a complete set for all-round use.

Expert By Facom Circlip Pliers Features and Benefits

• Internal and external versions: Internal pliers work on grooves inside bores, and external pliers work on shafts. Having the right type means less slipping and less risk of damaging the circlip.
• Straight and bent tips: Straight tips suit open, easy-to-reach circlips. Bent 90-degree tips help when access is restricted or the circlip sits at an awkward angle.
• Professional-grade build: These pliers are designed for repeated use in a working environment, so they give consistent grip on the circlip.
• Module tray set: The 4 piece set keeps the pliers organised and easy to find in a toolbox or on the bench.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between internal and external circlip pliers?

Check where the circlip sits. If it fits inside a bore or housing, you need internal pliers, which open the ring outwards. If it sits on a shaft, you need external pliers, which expand the ring so it can slide off.

When should I use bent circlip pliers instead of straight?

Choose bent pliers when the circlip is set at an angle or surrounding components block your view and access. Straight pliers are better when you can approach the circlip directly.
