Knipex 87 00 100 Cobra XS Water Pump Pliers 100mm Ultra Compact

The Knipex 87 00 100 Cobra XS is a 100 mm water pump plier built for work in the most confined spaces where standard pliers cannot be used. Its ultra-compact body and slim head allow one-handed fine adjustment across 11 positions, gripping pipes up to 28 mm in diameter and nuts up to 24 mm across flats. Self-clamping jaws with specially hardened 61 HRC teeth prevent slipping and maintain a secure hold without repositioning.
