The knipex adjustable wrench pliers I use everyday working on garbage trucks for hydro fittings. I’ve had tight fittings and I’ve taken a hammer to the handle to break them loose and well let’s just say in the last 2 years i haven’t had to warranty them and the handles look brand new
Knipex Pliers are great tools. I have numerous Pliers Wrenches and Cobra Pliers. I have only broke one 10” Knipex Pliers Wrench. The adjustable pivot broke apart, they have since upgraded. I contacted Knipex about warranty and they wasn’t receptive at first, then they sent out the updated replacement pair. Thanks Cam and Tekamo.
On those dipped handles, I find they have way more grip when you have to use the tool with grease, hydraulic oil, engine oil etc than those multi component ones, even the slick dipped handles just seem to work better with a bit of grease in there. And those massive circlip pliers are great, the ones I got are basically made for knocking the circlips off of quadtrac idlers or rollers. And they’re the only ones I know will get the job done, even if I need to use a hammer to break the clip loose.
I have the 3 piece cobra set from Knipex that have been my go to since I been in the field for over 15 years, dropped them in oil, transmission, hydraulic, coolant, and differential oil and even with the oil they would never slip out my hands with or without gloves! I’m Definitely loving their brand and looking forward to them expand their arsenal
@@SquatchAK more like when does he ride doing 15-hours workdays and being a family father? 😂 But hey he’s a friendly badass so probably some nice enduro bike?
Big boi Cobras seldom come out of the tool box but when they do, I'd be in trouble if i didn't have them. Probably the last step before the gas torch in most of my cases lol. Also, "if it fits it snips" 😂😂😂
I love when this one gets mispronounced :) The part "Knip" comes from the old German "Kniptang" which are cutting pliers. It's pronounced with a hard K like in control.
I am electrician and one of those guys who isn’t too picky about certain brands of tools. I definitely have my favourites but I don’t think changing from one brand to another is a deal breaker. You could change my Milwaukee for Dewalt, Stabila for Empire, Knipex for Klein etc… Except for Cobras, cobras are miles better than any other brands water pump pliers. I think I’ve had mine for 7 or 8 years maybe just now they could be replaced because the jaw teeth are starting to round after using them nearly everyday. I’ve taken a file to the teeth to keep them sharp but the teeth are so hard. I think I’ll keep them a couple more years though before they get retired to the home box. I also keep the TwinGrips in my small go bag too. Which I thought were sort of a gimmick at first but I use them all the time now. The amount of stripped bolt heads and screws they have taken out is really impressive.
Loving this Sema series!! Hope to make it out there atleast once to check it out. Those big Knipex are used daily on the farm. Must have for heavy guys. Great stuff guys👍
There's a reason i carry 3 different knipex pliers with me everywhere. only thing i wish is that the twin grips had a wire cutter somewhere on them. i use the pliers wrench and cobras enough to literally wear them out.
Might have to get some knipex now. Been in the trade 30 years I’m stubborn and my channelok pliers have never let me down. I got bad attitude about flush cuts to if I bleed on the zip ties so does the next guy.
I use my big ass Cobras weekly. They're perfect for taking the tension off tarper arms/bars on roll-off trucks & I used them yesterday on a front load tie rod end laying under the truck. Way better than a pipe wrench. And yeah I think we're dirtier
Im seeing those crimpers on amazon on the low right now, and I'm seriously debating picking them up. Im scared they're gonna get marked up crazy later on once people realize they're the shit
I've used that 22 inch cobra and a 3 foot pipe wrench to pipe in an entire 3 inch main on a steam boiler before. It works great but really fucks up/marrs the pipe lol.
Most Knipex tools I have works well. Only disappointing Knipex tool I have is their wire stripper. Not completely junk as most on the market but cuts thin strands and uneven insulation.
What Knipex - or any other plier manufacturer for that matter - need to make is some decent 'opening' pliers. Like a circlip plier but with flat jaws. There are a million normal pliers on the market but NO decent opening pliers out there.
Really? Who doesn't cut cable ties with flush cutters? Are you for real? I mean yeah people in US still wear jeans with zero functional pockets and fabrics to manual jobs... lol.. and every factory/logistics building they build is without windows, so the workers there have no idea what time of day it is and get sick from fluorescent lights.. like in a casino, players are kept in dark for a reason.
I have used two separate pairs (mine and a coworker's) there is a lot of cable they will not strip enough that they aren't useful @@Barbaratio Klien and Daytona Ideal and Vessel all work better
I like this brand of tools.......I just wish I knew how to pronounce the name!🤪 Cam is going to give up wrenching and just become a spokesman for all of these tool companies!🍿

I’ve always wondered how they’d go with hydraulic fittings. Gotta get me a set and try em out!

Gotta get the pliers wrench ones too. The 10” is like a whole wrench set in one tool.
Knipex, the best quality i've found for my service truck. Even their snap ring pliers are top shelf. Their warranty is awesome as well.
yeah Tim we agree
Imagine if Tyler was here, everyone would be rolling in laughter!!! More Tyler 🙏🏼 please
Knipex Cobras are a must have
Never knew Cam was into mountainbikes, but the Five Tens gave it away 😂
I damn near spit my beer. Wonder what the fella rides?
@@SquatchAK more like when does he ride doing 15-hours workdays and being a family father? 😂 But hey he’s a friendly badass so probably some nice enduro bike?
I ride a Giant POS.
Knipex tools are so great that I want them all, whether I actually need them or not.
Adjustable wrench pliers are my go to in the industrial maintenance field
Big boi Cobras seldom come out of the tool box but when they do, I'd be in trouble if i didn't have them. Probably the last step before the gas torch in most of my cases lol.
Also, "if it fits it snips" 😂😂😂
I need that crimper. Been using a cheap one off amazon but would like a nice one
the little ziptie cutters are ace. Such a smooth action. Way better than pliers.
Nylon tie are always long enough , wrap them around twice before tightly cinching them up . Six inch Cobra pliers are my choice of favorites !
Those needle nose and cobra's are the reel deal.
Sure are man

Love those pliers. Have a few pairs myself..
Didn't know Cam had an aviation background. Currently working in aerospace testing myself. Always enjoy all the tekamo videos.

@7:23 I see those Five Ten’s Cam, the mountain biker!
This is the booth we should care about.
Knipex 82 01 200 was the game changer for me
Same the twin grips are brilliant
Is it bad I have just about all the pliers they showed 😅

8:47 странно, что представителю книпекса не пояснили, что НЕЛЬЗЯ перед тем, как обжимать провод наконечником скручивать жилы!

Best pliers on the market!
I’ve had the wire strippers for years and never noticed the wire cutters on the top, lmao.
It’s like you got a new tool for free now
@@TekamoHD I’m a heavy equipment mechanic myself and enjoy your channel. Thanks!
Thanks for watching Neal awesome to hear you work on the same stuff
I have a pair of 10 inch pliers wrench with comfort grips that are five years old EDC constantly covered in hydraulic oil and looks almost new
Im seeing those crimpers on amazon on the low right now, and I'm seriously debating picking them up. Im scared they're gonna get marked up crazy later on once people realize they're the shit
In 7 years of working on over the road trucks. I've never been cut by a zip tie
Do you carry a pocket Ku-nife ?
I use that small Cobra as fidget spinner.
I've used that 22 inch cobra and a 3 foot pipe wrench to pipe in an entire 3 inch main on a steam boiler before.
It works great but really fucks up/marrs the pipe lol.
👏👏👏
I've only had to warranty my cobras once, and that is because I used them so much that I wore the teeth out on them and that took me 4-5 years
The fact you actually managed to do that is genuenly impressive.
Man. I was looking for deutsch crimpers from them a few years ago.
Most Knipex tools I have works well. Only disappointing Knipex tool I have is their wire stripper. Not completely junk as most on the market but cuts thin strands and uneven insulation.
You guys cost me $120 bucks lol
Good the 140/5 and 180/5 mm sets of those combination needle nose and flush cut pliers. Oh boy are they sweet lol
It’s knipex you kuh-now
5:49 who is trying to sell these tools. If your not careful you will be a salesman
I’d only sell tools I believe in 👍
KUH-NIPEX? Just like Husky-Varna, right. 😄😄
Honestly, I dont mind paying extra for tools from Knipex, Wera and Wiha. Till they arent made in China, but Germany, Czech Republic, Poland or Taiwan.
Knipex
What Knipex - or any other plier manufacturer for that matter - need to make is some decent 'opening' pliers. Like a circlip plier but with flat jaws. There are a million normal pliers on the market but NO decent opening pliers out there.
But ain't the k silent on knipex like knife
Im not German so in my language it pronounced “Nippex”. I speak English.
Kuh-knee-pex if you ask the germans
That's the wrong pronunciation. Listen to a German representative say the name. It's nye-pex 13:35 as you said it near the end.

skip the strippers they slip no matter how you set them
While I agree most auto strippers suck, these Knipex ones are actually decent.
I have used two separate pairs (mine and a coworker's) there is a lot of cable they will not strip enough that they aren't useful @@Barbaratio Klien and Daytona Ideal and Vessel all work better
@@MarcusMussawar I have yet to try the Klein's, but I do like Klein tools.
When it come to wire tie nips knipex is the best
I like this brand of tools.......I just wish I knew how to pronounce the name!🤪
