The KNIPEX Pliers Wrench Mini uses the versatility of a wrench with the functionality of a pliers in one 5" tool for gripping, holding, pressing and bending applications. The combination tool eliminates the need for SAE or metric wrenches. The Pliers Wrench has a full-surface gripping capacity of up to 7/8", and its smooth, parallel jaws will not round off bolts or nuts and will not damage the workpiece. The tool has a push-button adjustment and ratcheting action, so the tool stays in place for fast turns on repetitive tasks. The tool is forged and oil-hardened and constructed from German, chrome-vanadium electric steel. Additional sizes are available up to 16".
