The Knipex Cobra VDE features an adjustment mechanism that allows one jaw to slide directly onto the workpiece, ensuring quick, reliable, and comfortable handling. The fine adjustment enables optimal adaptation to differently sized workpieces and a pleasant hand position. The slim design of the head and joint area provides good access to the workpiece. It is self-locking on pipes and screws, preventing slippage and requiring minimal hand force. The cage joint design offers high stability through double guidance, while the pinch protection helps prevent the operator's fingers from getting caught.
