The tool features a compound joint for increased mechanical advantage and flush rivets for a clean, snag-free profile. Three replaceable tip diameters -- 0.038, 0.047, and 0.070 inches -- cover a range of ring sizes without requiring a separate tool. The steel body and non-slip grip handles are built for repeated use in shop and field environments. At 13.46 inches overall length, it delivers maximum reach in tight assemblies while minimizing handle movement to reduce hand fatigue during extended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis plier is suited for automotive, industrial, and HVAC service work where external retaining rings are used to secure components on shafts, in housings, or on fasteners. It is a standard tool for mechanics, millwrights, and equipment technicians who regularly disassemble and reassemble rotating or sliding components. The straight-head configuration is appropriate for rings that are accessible from a direct angle without obstruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight head design for direct-access external retaining ring applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound joint provides increased leverage and reduces hand fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaceable tips in three diameters: 0.038, 0.047, and 0.070 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush rivets eliminate snag points and contribute to overall durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-slip grip handles in black and red for secure control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B107.500 standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with external retaining rings across a range of shaft and bore sizes compatible with the three included tip diameters.

De-energize and lock out any equipment before removing or installing retaining rings on rotating assemblies. Wear eye protection -- retaining rings can release under tension. Tips should be inspected for wear before each use and replaced when deformed or rounded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13.46 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Diameters\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.038 inches, 0.047 inches, 0.070 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Replaceable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Slip Grips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black and Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulated\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 inches x 6.25 inches x 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B107.500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GEARWRENCH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 82033\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GEARWRENCH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691028185394,"sku":"82033","price":78.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/63493f62596ade2d658d89dd732c656a.jpg?v=1788279508","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gearwrench-82033-external-retaining-ring-pliers","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
