Position the Knipex multiple slip joint spanner quickly and accurately with just one hand movement. The spring-loaded hinge bolt locks securely into place without adjusting inadvertently. Thanks to the 15-fold fine adjustment, the Knipex multiple slip joint spanner can be perfectly adjusted to different sizes of the component. This fine adjustment also makes sure that the distance to the handles remains hand-friendly for every grip width. Screws are tightened and released according to the ratchet principle. The Knipex multiple slip joint spanner clamps onto the component securely by itself as from a wrench opening of 17 mm thanks to the jaw geometry developed by Knipex. This means the user can put all energy into the desired movement without pressing the pliers handle together and thus without energy loss: in the case of the multiple slip joint spanner , especially into the releasing and tightening of bolted connections. Tough and strong The Knipex multiple slip joint spanner is further stabilized by the box joint design. Unlike pliers with mounted joints, no tilting forces arise when under strain. The handles stabilize each other in the joint.
