These retaining-ring pliers apply internal rings into bores. Also known as inner snap ring pliers, they provide greater strength for more squeezing force than convertible pliers. Their tips slide into matching grip holes in a ring's lugs (ears) for a secure hold when squeezing together the ends of the ring.

These retaining-ring pliers apply external rings onto shafts. Also known as outer snap ring pliers, they provide greater strength for more squeezing force than convertible pliers. Their tips slide into matching grip holes in a ring's lugs (ears) for a secure hold when pulling apart the ends of the ring.

Convertible retaining-ring pliers switch their jaw motion or orientation to accommodate internal snap rings for bores and external snap rings for shafts. They eliminate the need for separate pairs of internal and external pliers. Their tips slide into matching grip holes in a ring's lugs (ears) for a secure hold when squeezing together or pulling apart the ends of the ring.

These sets include multiple pairs of internal and external retaining-ring pliers in different lengths and tip sizes. The internal pliers apply snap rings into a bore. The external pliers apply snap rings onto a shaft. These dedicated-function pliers provide greater strength for more squeezing force than convertible pliers.
