Built from forged steel with a tapered jaw design, this tool handles ring diameter ranges from 0.75 to 2.36 inches using a 0.07-inch tip diameter. The 90-degree head angle provides direct access in tight spaces where straight or angled pliers cannot reach. At 7 inches overall length and 0.31 pounds, it is a lightweight, single-handed tool suited for bench work and field service. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, mechanical, and general maintenance technicians keep this plier in standard tool kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 82137 is used wherever external retaining rings secure components on shafts or housings in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies. Typical applications include motor shaft assemblies, pump components, gearbox housings, and HVAC blower assemblies. The 90-degree head is especially useful when axial access is limited and the ring must be approached from the side. The dipped vinyl grip reduces hand fatigue during repetitive ring removal and installation tasks. This tool meets ASME B107.500 standards, making it appropriate for professional and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree fixed tip angle for side-access ring service in confined assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHandles external rings with diameter range of 0.75 to 2.36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.07-inch tip diameter for standard external retaining ring groove fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForged steel body construction for strength and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDipped vinyl handle provides grip and reduces hand fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B107.500 standard for retaining ring pliers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style professional hand tool for external retaining rings with a diameter range of 0.75 to 2.36 inches across general mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall and remove external retaining rings using the correct tip size to avoid slipping and ring distortion. Always wear eye protection when working with retaining rings, as rings can release under spring tension. No power source is required; this is a hand-operated tool.
