The high-tech water pump pliersGrip quickly, adjust finelyThe benefits of working with the Knipex Cobra are plain to see: these water pump pliers are light and stable, can be adjusted on the component quickly at the touch of a button and are self-locking on pipes and nuts. With their slim multi-component grips without collar, the Cobra 87 02 250 can be very easily transported and used in confined spaces.

For pipes, nuts, sleeves, for various kinds of components: the professional user applies the Knipex Cobra quickly and accurately with just one hand movement. The spring-loaded hinge bolt locks securely into place without adjusting inadvertently. Thanks to the 25-fold fine adjustment, the Cobra can be ideally adjusted to different sizes of the component. This fine adjustment also makes sure that the distance to the handles remains hand-friendly for every grip width.

Tough and strongThe Knipex Cobra is further stabilised by the box joint design. Unlike pliers with mounted joints, no tilting forces arise when under strain. The handles stabilise each other in the joint.

Self-locking mechanism ensures a high degree of efficiencyThe Knipex Cobra clamps onto the component securely by itself thanks to the jaw geometry developed by Knipex. This means the user can put all energy into the desired movement without pressing the pliers handle together – and thus without energy loss: round components can be turned, bolted connections tightened and released.

    If you're in the market for some ...pick them up and know there's not much better... I've had a couple of pairs of the basic handle cobras for donkeys, and they're still as useful as the day I bought them...these softer handles are more comfortable, if you're unsure..check out the YouTube videos of these in use/demonstration, that shows them being stood on and still gripping without being squeezed...
    Paired with pliers grips you're set ..

    I prefer the thinner basic handled grip, at least for the 200mm ones for the compact jobs. I do like the vde over the soft grip just because you may as well at that point

    Are these worth it over a cheaper brand if I'm a diyer? I know knipex are all the talk in the trade/tool community. They don't seem too expensive but I'd only need them in a blue moon. (edited)

    As someone in the trade, if you’re a DIYer go for the cheaper ones… even the rothenbuger grips will do you good

    I use mine daily, they have never been near a waterproof though mostly holding, bending snapping out stuff

    I bought these recently and too be honest I may have been a bit unlucky but I did not receive the quality Im used to with Knipex. The jaws on these do not line up correctly, off by a couple of mm.
