My Knipex Cobra 10-inch Water Pump Pliers 8701250 Review

[@phloo1]

Hey, I've seen your video last year, and that I made up my mind and bought the pliers. It was a great choice, you've made a very convoncing and true review. Thanks for that!

[@b-2466]

I have never owned a pair of channellocks but I have 3 pair of knipex and love them.

[@billstools5244]

Your not missing out from never owning channellock pliers. These are so much better and safer to use.

[@Jdl223]

Best pliers ever, can't believe I used other tools before them

[@Joachim567]

Knipex ist nicht nur ein Werkzeug, es ist Liebe ❤ für ein Werkzeug... Deutsche Wertarbeit... Made in Germany 🇩🇪... Werkzeug mit Idee und Innovation... Knipex I love it... 💕

[@MarzNet256]

Cool. Just ordered these Cobras (10"). I have the 7" pliers wrench, they are excellent.

[@barlow2976]

Thanks Bill. Life changing tools!

[@billstools5244]

This and knipex 7” pliers wrench I couldn’t imagine working without.

[@BRICOFAST]

For me The best wather Pump in world knipex cobra and knipex wrench the best quality and strong tools 💪💪💪 lineman's pliers so the best design ,lenghts here from Portugal 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹

[@billstools5244]

I still believe these are the best pump pliers. Good for pipes yet missing the leverage I can apply using a 2 or 3 foot ridgid

[@MarkJones-no2zf]

I have been using them for the last 20 years

[@chainlinkington5278]

Badass video. Thanks for your thoughts

[@bharatnadhani4532]

Glue on the pipe thread instead of teflon ribbon!!! How you will open again?

[@bryanstone654]

Nice video...I have the 125 cobras. The button has a tendency to get stuck when depressed. I have to jiggle the handles to get them to disengage. Is this normal? Thanks

[@amigator7789]

Yep, this is normal thing on all Knipexes with this "button" system. I have Knipex 8603180 and it's doing same thing. Btw, you don't have to jiggle handles when button is not properly set. Just push them together on object you want to grip, button slips a little bit to the side and locks itself in the right position.

[@billstools5244]

I find cleaning the button area good With wd40 helps. I find just opening the jaw and close will engage that button

[@losaminos59]

Great stuff man! What is that pipe sealant that you're using at @3:10?

[@chrisa9435]

Never seize

[@pujo28]

I bought a pair to hold a piston rod on a shock absorber from spinning while I remove the top nut. We’ll the 10” Cobras didn’t hold the rod whatsoever. I guess they don’t hold a rod that’s shiny unlike black pipe. I tried many times and all they did was let the rod slip thru them. Very dissatisfied

[@desiderosteel3934]

Which Knipex pliers do you recommend for home use? Knipex 250 or 300.

[@jacobsebastien3910]

I Luv my Knipex Alligator Pliers 💪😏

[@Divyanshu0236]

Knipex is d best 👍👍

[@billstools5244]

They make great tools

[@mikehammer6130]

Great presentation

[@wettosixecho]

Do you know the length from top to bottom at the longest point? Trying to see if i this will fit inside a veto mb2.

[@williammcgrattan9583]

No other brand comes even close. Game over for the rest.

[@billstools5244]

No going back from these. I have the Klein Klaws which are rebranded NWS and I do like nws tools. These bit like a pipe wrench without the weight

[@marioribeiroguedesguedes7536]

Boa tarde aonde eu encontro este alicate knipex para comprar grato

[@sekekamawow5386]

Marred that surface tho. I’m kinda interested in these, im a maintenance man I do a ton of toilets, think these are overkill for that? 10 or 12 inch, for that plastic flush valve nut

[@billstools5244]

I tear apart some gas pipe to fix a leak in this other video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rabbdWqZfp6nfac If you don't want to mar the surface the plier's wrench made by Knipex are great pliers. I should do a video of those pliers have been using the 7" for more than 2 years now and just added the 10" for when I have larger fasteners and need more leverage.

[@chrisa9435]

Get the rigid brand ex change plumbing tool. It’s perfect for that, that’s what it was made for

[@apollotheaussie361]

I never put teeth on brass

[@zulfikranzulmos4066]

what did u put on the thread

[@billstools5244]

I use pipe dope to seal gas pipe, prodope

[@From_the_mil]

If you had to get one, 7” or 10”?

[@feyrband]

Depends on pipe sizes you might run into. The 10s open up to 2" so I'd probably go with that if I could only have 1. 7 for tighter spaces of that's more of a concern

[@driftx2]

Too bad they only work for water pumps. I need something something that can open hex nut and pipes.

[@billstools5244]

It will remove a hex nut, even a badly rounded hex nut. I use it on steel pipe all the time. On my other channel many get upset I use these instead of my ridgids.
