Cobra XS Mini Water Pump Pliers, 100 mm, Nuts to 24 mm, Pipes to 28 mm, Self-Locking, Fine Adjustment by Button Push, EDC, 87 00 100

These mini Cobra pliers are proof that size means absolutely nothing when design is done right. The fit is perfect. Compact enough to live in a pocket or pouch, yet instantly confidence inspiring the moment you pick them up. They feel balanced, precise, and ready for work despite their small footprint. Adjustment is effortless and precise. The fine adjustment mechanism works smoothly, letting you set the jaws exactly where you want them with minimal effort. Once locked in, they stay put. The self locking action is outstanding, biting down securely without slipping or needing constant hand pressure. Grip is exceptional for a tool this small. The jaws hold fast, and the handles are comfortable to use even when you are applying real force. There is no sharpness, no awkward pressure points, just controlled strength where you need it. For the quality on offer, the value for money is excellent. This is a professional grade tool in miniature form, built to last and genuinely useful rather than novelty sized. I thank these pliers. My toolkit thanks these pliers. Even stubborn fasteners seem to reconsider their attitude. Long may they bite.

These are great for every day carry or for the tool kit of a motorcycle, which is where I keep them. They are well made and incredibly sturdy for their size. The jaws are accurate and can even function as tweezers. They are also a perfect size for emergency dental extractions (probably!). They offer a surprising amount of grip and leverage even on quite large bolts, and will bite into smooth metal rods or wire extremely firmly.

Wanted some small pliers to enable me to undo valve stems on my bicycle, that were sticking due to tubeless sealant, following a thumb injury. These are small and fit easily into a saddle bag as part of a tool kit. Cheaper alternatives are out there, but when I can afford it I'll always try to buy quality, and that's what these are. Versatile tool for what our American cousins call an EDC.

I am a Knipex fanboi, and have been gradually replacing my tools (mainly bike servicing, a little car and household maintenance including electricals) . If you have seen Knipex Pliers in operation these XS are the same high quality, great pliers, that serve double duty as shifting spanners though they are not as nice as the Knipex Pliers Wrench (100 mm 86 04 100) as the serrated jaws will mar the bolt (but they are much cheaper). As pliers I find them more effective as the jaws are parallel, the harder you pull the tighter they grip. Though the cobra type (serrated teeth) are ideal for any thing you need to dig into for grip if you don't mind scoring the surface but need that extra purchase/torque otherwise go for the other Wrench over the Cobra . This one is tiny, it feels high quality, robust, and can do jobs I wouldn't dare use a similar sized tool from the typical UK household brands. Get it on sale and the price premium isn't that bad. If you get fanboi-ish don't bother with every size, they are so versatile you can skip a few sizes and be able to do any job requiring pliers, this XS one last, for the fiddly jobs in tight spaces or when you want to finish of an EDC tool bag. And remember when you're justifying the cost to yourself take into account the speed and lack of frustration on getting a job done.

Very small, and narrow jawed, but useful for model making. great quality

Compact and just what I needed When space is tight these are just the ticket Repairing a lab water pump estimate repair cost from supplier £5 k + due to the time to dis assemble and re assemble the whole machine 10 minutes a new washer and it's done

Knipex a great piece of quality kit higly recommend

I was shown one of these by a friend who was using it instead of a pot lifter while camping. It was so tactile that I had to have one. My job is maintenance in a large school and one or two tools are always in my pocket. I found I was carrying a Swiss Army Knife AND a multi tool, but only ever using the pliers on the latter. Within days of this Knipex arriving, it was my primary first choice for nearly everything. The knife has stayed and the multi tool is now in the hands of somebody else. The one handed operation means those tight spaces at the back of sinks etc are much more accessible and the strength achievable in this tiny wrench has to be experienced to be believed. In the couple of weeks that I’ve owned this remarkable tool, two friends have bought them for themselves and a heating engineer (who prides himself on his Knipex collection) actually borrowed mine for a tight space on the school boiler, and then promptly ordered one there and then. I have seldom been more delighted by the purchase of a tool, it is robust to the point of being nothing short of Mighty. The design is immaculate and a joy to use. It can handle anything up to an inch and slightly more, but can be employed in a huge amount of everyday tasks that would normally involve heading to the tool box. The precision for jobs like retrieving tiny screws which have slipped through to the back of fittings (as I can personally attest) is, I would say in my gushing praise, almost surgical. Highly recommended and an obvious five stars in all categories.

So strong and yet so light. Will disappear in your pocket. A bit pricey. Excellent if offered around ₹1000/-.

Ein kultiges EDC-Werkzeug und das völlig zu Recht! Super kompakt und dennoch absolut taugliches Werkzeug. Muttern bis 24 mm und Rohre (oder ähnliches) bis max. 28 mm können damit genutzt werden. Klar, durch den kurzen Hebel ist die Kraftübertragung im Gegensatz zu normal großen Werkzeugen geringer, aber das beste Werkzeug ist das, was man dabei hat! Die Zangenflächen packen gut zu und schließen vorne präzise ab. Ist zwar kein Ersatz für eine Pinzette, aber man kann auch kleinere Objekte sicher und zuverlässig greifen und/oder ziehen.

De calidad y muy compactas pero prácticas.

The KNIPEX Cobra XS Mini Water Pump Pliers are a game-changer! At just 100mm, they’re incredibly compact yet offer impressive power, handling nuts and pipes. The self-locking mechanism is secure, and the fine adjustment button makes it easy to adjust the jaws quickly. Despite their small size, they provide excellent leverage and strength, making them perfect for my EDC kit. Whether for plumbing or general tasks, these pliers are a must-have in any toolkit!

Très bien....
