Knipex 8701400SBA 16″ COBRA XL High-Tech Water Pump Pliers
The Knipex 8701400 COBRA XL is a 16″ (400 mm) high-performance water pump plier designed for heavy-duty gripping applications. Featuring a push-button adjustment with 27 positions, it allows fast, precise sizing directly on the workpiece. Its self-locking design provides a secure grip on pipes and nuts with minimal hand force, while specially hardened (approx. 61 HRC) serrated teeth ensure long-lasting, reliable performance. Constructed from forged, oil-hardened chrome vanadium electric steel, the Cobra XL offers exceptional durability and stability thanks to its box-joint design and double guide system. With a maximum capacity of 3-1/2″ for round pipe and 3-3/4″ for hex materials, it delivers professional-grade strength in a lighter alternative to comparable pipe wrenches. Made in Germany.
