stuck Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 There must be a correct tool for releasing the spring type radiator clips but I've no idea what I'm looking for. Been using long nose mole grips for years, work fine on small diameter clips but a not great on larger ones. Ta, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

integerspin Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 If you mean the clips made from what looks like Piano wire I have a pair of snap-on pliers for them. It's basically[haven't looked at them in any detail for years] a pair of pliers with a groove in each jaw. They do work better than normal pliers, not better enough that I would buy them though.
