LONG REACH HOSE CLAMP PLIE - Lisle

The Lisle 17000 Long Reach Hose Clamp Plier is a specialized tool designed for professional automotive and industrial technicians to efficiently service deeply situated hose clamps. This plier allows for easier access to restrictive engine compartments and machinery, simplifying the maintenance of cooling, fuel, and vacuum lines with enhanced control and durability.

Key Features

• Extended Reach Design: Provides access to hose clamps in challenging locations such as deep within engine bays, behind radiators, under intake manifolds, and along frame rails.
• Professional-Grade Construction: Built from robust materials to ensure durability and withstand the rigorous demands of daily use in busy workshops and industrial environments.
• Secure Clamp Engagement: Precision-machined jaws offer a firm, non-slip grip on various spring-style and self-tightening hose clamps, minimizing slippage.
• Integrated Locking Mechanism: Holds hose clamps in the open position, facilitating hands-free removal and installation of hoses, particularly beneficial in confined or awkward spaces.
• Enhanced Control and Leverage: Long handles provide superior leverage and precise control, helping to reduce potential damage to hoses and fittings during service operations.

Applications

The Lisle 17000 is suitable for a wide range of automotive repair tasks, including servicing radiator hoses, heater hoses, coolant bypass lines, fuel lines, and vacuum hoses on cars, light trucks, and various commercial vehicles. It is particularly effective for vehicles with transverse engine layouts or densely packed engine compartments where access is inherently challenging. Beyond automotive use, this tool is also valuable for maintenance on industrial machinery, air compressors, and stationary engines where hose clamps are recessed or shielded.
