Only used this tool a few times and the clamp end came apart. Not worth the money

These are the s@it,for doing those pain in the butt def lines on volvo trucks ,also work well on Ford 3.2 diesels ,an DC they lock in place, yahhh

I live these they save the time of fighting them. Even if it would have taken me 2 min to get a connector off. This will save me about a min and 40 sec. Time saved is money made

I know it’s for fuel lines but also helps release those hard to get to electrical connectors in places where it’s hard to get your fat fingers in and apply any real pressure.

Working on emission systems this thing has saved so much time trying to fight push tabs. Half the price of the snap on truck.

These pliers are the only tool I have found to work in removing in-line filters with quick release tabs that don’t release without this tool. Fantastic product from lisle.

Made in America and built right. I do wish the end effector was able to be easily disassembled so I could use the ratchet/cable mechanism with a home-made end effector. The cable can be easily removed from the plier portion however.

Anyone who’s worked on trying to disconnect the PCV hose from the rear end of valve cover, on an E60 528i BMW, with the N52 or similar engine, can tell you what an absolute bear it is to try and disconnect this hose connection.The hose connection is between the end of the valve cover and the firewall. Nearly every YouTube video I’ve watched on this shows the hose being “cut off” as I wound up doing here. But this approach necessitates removing the intake manifold to remove the PCV hose for replacement. Neither of these tasks lead to a feeling of satisfaction; it’s a total PITA.I stumbled upon this Lisle 35070 Button Connector Pliers, and instantly purchased them. In over 40-years of wrenching as a hobby, I’ve never seen anything like these. They are a brilliant to solution to this and many other challenges of disconnection such “button” style hose ends.I’ll be ready next time, and so should you. Certainly recommend to purchase.
