Made from heat-treated AISI 1045 medium carbon steel and finished with phosphating and blackening, it resists corrosion and wear while providing a precise jaw action. The pliers accept a maximum jaw opening of 20 mm (0.78 in) via a 13 mm (0.5 in) adjustment screw, giving you control for a variety of single-ear hose clamps commonly found on Toyota, Lexus and many other vehicle models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this tool remove and install single-ear CV boot clamps?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pliers use a controlled crimp-and-push method: compress the clamp ear with the jaws, then rotate the integrated screw to force the crimp into its locked position or to release it.
