The pliers are bent at a 45-degree angle, and the straight needle-nose pliers head can be rotated to facilitate access to narrow areas. Flexible, the side of the bevel mouth can reach certain areas that the flat-angle pliers cannot reach.

Our hose clamp pliers with a 45° feature that can get into those tight spaces and get the job done with ease! Locking ratchet that holds the clamp open for easy installation and removal. The lock feature is good but in a tight place (normal) the pliers close easily and lock there before you get it on the clamp.
