Knipex 8701560 Cobra High-Tech Water Pump Pliers 560mm
Knipex 8701560 Cobra High-Tech Water Pump Pliers 560 mm is an ultra-heavy-duty, professional-grade gripping tool engineered for securely gripping, holding, turning, pulling, and fastening extremely large pipes, nuts, and industrial fittings with maximum efficiency and control. As part of the Cobra XXL series, its massive 560 mm length delivers extraordinary leverage and an exceptionally high gripping capacity, making it the ultimate solution for the most demanding industrial, construction, infrastructure, and heavy maintenance applications.
Featuring Knipex’s proven push-button fine adjustment system, the pliers allow fast and precise adjustment directly on the workpiece. With multiple finely stepped adjustment positions, the tool adapts instantly to very large dimensions, ensuring a secure, slip-free grip even on oversized pipes and fittings. The self-locking jaw geometry on pipes and nuts significantly reduces the force required by the user, enabling safe, controlled, and fatigue-free operation despite extreme loads.
Manufactured from high-quality chrome-vanadium electric steel, the Cobra XXL pliers are forged and oil-hardened to guarantee exceptional durability and long service life under extreme working conditions. The hardened gripping teeth (approx. 61 HRC) provide outstanding wear resistance and an aggressive, reliable bite, even on smooth, rounded, or heavily loaded surfaces. The extremely robust box-joint construction ensures maximum stability and strength while preventing lateral play during the toughest heavy-duty applications.
Thanks to its extraordinary 560 mm length and superior leverage, the Knipex 8701560 delivers an exceptionally high gripping capacity, making it ideal for very large pipes, industrial flanges, heavy fasteners, and oversized fittings commonly encountered in industrial plants, construction sites, energy infrastructure, shipyards, and heavy maintenance operations. The non-slip plastic-coated ergonomic handles provide excellent comfort, control, and safety, even during prolonged, high-force use.
Trusted by professionals worldwide, the Knipex 8701560 Cobra XXL represents uncompromising gripping power, precision, reliability, and long-term performance in the most extreme professional environments.
