Long Reach Pipe Grip Pliers 11 Inch Ring Nose Pliers 3/5 Inch Diameter Pipe Pliers Offset Spark Plug Boot Removal

This description ends on the state the pliers arrive in rather than on anything they do. Anti-rust oil may appear on them, it says, and that oil is there to keep the rust off; the tool is not dirty and not second-hand, and a towel takes the film away without affecting how it works. The last two things the description says are both about that.

Eleven inches of reach, and no jaw figure

Length is what the description measures: eleven inches of reach, offered for getting at things in confined areas. What the jaws will close on is a different question and the page never answers it. The page states no jaw capacity, no grip range and no opening dimension for the jaws, so the size of boot or hose these will actually take is left open.

Serrated jaws on long handles

Grip gets claimed twice over, in identical wording: long handles provide maximum gripping force and save effort, and serrated jaws provide maximum gripping force. The handles are also called ergonomic, for a comfortable, non-slip hold. No serration pitch, jaw width or handle length is given, so the grip is described in adjectives and measured in none of them.

Forged, quenched, polished

The steel is forged high carbon, given what the supplier calls high frequency quenching treatment, and credited with hardness, strength and durability. The finish is given as polished. No hardness figure and no steel grade backs any of that up, so the film of oil is doing the corrosion work that the alloy itself is never claimed to do.

Key features

• Eleven-inch reach: the length is offered as the point of the tool, for work in confined areas.
• Serrated jaw faces: the jaws are serrated, and maximum gripping force is what is claimed for them.
• Long, ergonomic handles: described as saving effort and as comfortable and non-slip in the hand.
• Forged high carbon steel: high frequency quenching treatment is claimed for hardness, strength and durability.
• Polished finish: the supplier gives the finish on these as a polished surface.
• Wide job list: spark plug boots and wires, hose clamps, cables, heater hoses, tubes, vacuum lines and fuel lines.
• Protective oil on arrival: a film of anti-rust oil may be present and is stated to be protection rather than dirt.

Specifications

• Reach along the handles: 11 inches
• Jaw form: serrated
• Forging and quench: forged high carbon, high frequency quenched
• Grip form on this plier: long and ergonomic
• Polish on the finish: polished

Before these go in your hand

• Eleven inches is printed as an exact figure and the supplier states no margin for it, so how closely it was measured is not stated, and no margin has been invented for it.
• The quenching claim is backed by no hardness figure, and the forging is given no steel grade beyond high carbon.
• The name sells a 3/5 inch diameter that the description leaves out entirely. What the jaws open to goes unstated, so that figure has not been attached to the jaws here.
• The title reaches for the word offset; the search summary reaches for it too. Neither the word nor the geometry behind it gets as far as the description, so no offset angle and no straight tool is published here.
• The description issues no caution of any kind. A plier squeezed onto a spark plug boot is worked on an engine that may still be hot and may still be live, and neither is mentioned.

Buy these for reach into a crowded engine bay, and measure the boot or hose you mean to grip first, because the measurement this listing gives describes how far in the tool reaches rather than what it closes on.
