Material: Steel
Add to Wish List
Very useful for fitting or removing ball closure rings, bar closure rings and segment rings, these pliers have curved tips to help prevent rings from pinging away when opening. Insert the pincer ends through the ring and then squeeze the handles together slowly to apply slight opening pressure. Don't squeeze too hard or you may stretch the ring. With the ring held slightly open put the ball, bar or segment in place and then release your hold on the handles. The same process is applied for removing balls, bars or segments. The pliers will open all thicknesses (gauge) of ring and they are available in three unit sizes:-Small - opens rings from 8mm (internal diameter) up to 22mm maximum. Total size 109mm x 54mm.Medium - opens rings from 10mm (internal diameter) up to 27mm maximum. Total size 154mm x 70mm.Large - opens rings from 10mm (internal diameter) up to 32mm maximum. Total size 182mm x 78mm.

Excellent customer experience
Great value and work really well. It is so much easier to use these pliers when changing a ball closure ring. Good value as well
Robust and easy to use. More than worth the money.
The BCR pliers worked superbly on 1.6 mm x 14mm titanium n*p*le rings. Easy to use even at the first unfamiliar attempt! -still needed 3 hands though. Very easy to control the pressure on the rings to avoid distortion while removing/fitting the ball. Highly recommended particularly for small diameter BCR which would be too fiddly for just fingers.
Small size pliers make hard work of opening large gauge rings. Perhaps you should recommend medium or large pliers for larger gauges as well as larger diameters.
Do the job
The 'tips' of the small size was surprisingly thick, more so than the picture would suggest. However, although it was fiddly changing my 8mm ball closure rings, it is preferable to changing them alone or as an awkward joint effort.
