The tool features a 90-degree angle head, placing the 0.90 mm tips perpendicular to the handle for access in confined or awkward installation points. Overall length is approximately 5.12 inches (130 mm). The steel body and non-slip plastic-coated handles give technicians a secure, controlled grip during repetitive ring placement. A built-in spring keeps the tips open between actuations, reducing hand fatigue. This pliers is used by HVAC technicians, machinists, plumbers, and general trade mechanics wherever external circlips need to be seated or pulled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 49 41 A01 suits applications requiring external ring service on small-diameter shafts and bores in the 1\/8 to 25\/64 inch range. The 90-degree angle head is well-suited for components recessed inside housings, motor assemblies, or valve bodies where a straight-tip tool cannot reach the ring groove cleanly. The included limiter feature controls tip spread, preventing over-expansion of the ring during installation. This tool is packaged and sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree angle head for access in recessed or tight installation points\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFixed 0.90 mm tips sized for small external retaining rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in spring keeps tips open between actuations for reduced hand fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLimiter feature prevents ring over-expansion during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel body construction meets DIN 5254 B standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-slip plastic-coated handles for secure grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for external retaining rings with a diameter range of 1\/8 to 25\/64 inch.

Always de-energize equipment and relieve any system pressure before removing or installing retaining rings on rotating or pressurized assemblies. Use the limiter to set maximum tip spread before engaging the ring to avoid distorting or launching the circlip during removal. Eye protection is recommended any time retaining rings are being seated or extracted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External Ring Pliers\u003c\/li\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: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing Diameter Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 to 25\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.90 mm (0.0313 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 mm (approximately 5.12 inches)\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 Plastic Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLimiter\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTether Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not Tether Capable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN 5254 B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KNIPEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 49 41 A01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KNIPEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544542183730,"sku":"49 41 A01","price":65.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b81e168694f6251a268caae5727460d5.jpg?v=1785929315","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/knipex-49-41-a01-external-retaining-ring-pliers","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
