Our verdict

An alloy steel plier with ergonomic plastic handles and a set name that references fourteen positions. The cutting width entry of ten inches is clearly wrong.

Overview

Many jaw positions, per the set name, are the working feature of this Knipex plier, which pairs an alloy steel body with plastic ergonomic handles. The listing names the use simply as pliers.

The reason to look is an adjustable-style plier from a known tool maker with a comfortable grip. The limit is a confusing data set that includes an impossible cutting width and no explanation of the positions.

Who it's for

Mechanics and plumbers who like a multi-position plier for gripping pipe or fittings. The plastic handles add comfort. Those who need exact capacity should verify with the maker.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Multi-position set name
  • Alloy steel build

Performance notes

A multi-position joint lets the jaws open to match different work sizes, which holds grip pressure on the part. Alloy steel handles squeezing and twisting loads. Handle shape affects how comfortably the squeeze transfers.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the Knipex 86 03 150 plier?

The listing gives an item length of 9.5 inches and separate dimensions of 6.14 x 1.5 inches. The two do not match, so confirm the length with the seller.

Is the cutting width of the Knipex 86 03 150 really ten inches?

No. The listing says 10 inches, which cannot be right for a plier of this size, so ignore that entry.
