Klein Tools D5317 Compact Plier Wrench, High Leverage Multi-Use Adjustable Plier Wrench with Smooth Jaws, 7-Inch

I’m really impressed with the Klein Tools D5317 Compact Plier Wrench. It’s compact enough to fit easily into tight spaces, yet delivers powerful leverage. The grip is outstanding—secure and smooth, making adjustments effortless and precise. Whether I’m working on plumbing fixtures or general repairs, this tool performs flawlessly. It’s clear that Klein Tools put a lot of thought into the design. The build quality feels solid and durable, and the adjustable feature adds versatility without sacrificing control. Highly recommended for professionals and DIYers alike!

These are super nice pliers. I got the 7 inch size which seems ideal for being a small pair of pliers, but still large enough to do real work with. The button to adjust the jaw width works well. For being small and having smooth jaws, they have as surprising amount of grip. I like the smooth jaws to be able to grip parts without marring them.

I only got them recently, but the initial impression is excellent. I suspect they are as good as the best competition. I got the 7 inch, there is currently a mistake on the page that I reported. The quality in hand seems high. I haven't used my Knipex enough to compare them but I'll try to update this review in a few weeks or months. The orange doesn't sear my eyes, but does make it easy to spot them in a toolbag. I needed just this size so I'm quite happy they started with 7 1/4" (including the dip handle, as that is what the TSA looks at when sizing tools, otherwise I'd call it 7"). At the widest it opens to 1 9/16" (40mm), when the handles are squeezed it goes to 1 7/16" (37mm) so there isn't a lot of play, the 1/4" seems even from widest to narrowest. It looks like 16 positions. It operates smoothly. Fully closed it can be used to grasp paper firmly. It is slightly biased toward the tips when fully closed but if I squeeze hard it nearly flattens out fully. Very little play. I can't read the lettering w/o a flashlight (1/4 to 1 1/2) and I suspect it'll wear off, but it isn't necssary (does anyone pay much attention do the lettering?). There is a clever box in the lower jaw you can select a size with if you can see it. Hopefully they come out with a chrome version and all the sizes as this is a home run (goooooooal! for those outside the U.S.), and I'm very pleased so far.

Where do I start with klein? There value for money is amazing these pliers are great for finish plumbing work ie fixtures and really anything you dont want teeth marring into very pleased!

Quality tool. When properly adjusted they are a good fit in the hand giving solid grip. Pay attention to details, there are no teeth. Overall they seem to be a good value. My only concern is the locking mechanism. Time will tell

Worked really well. Very solid and effective.

They work as they should. Feel comfortable in your hand. Grip sloan type toilet valves and parts very well

I have a very similar, but slightly smaller pliers wrench from the German manufacturer that everyone loves. I'm avoiding saying the brand name, but you can probably guess. These seem to me to be every bit as good as the German ones. There might be something about the German ones that is superior, I don't know. But for my use case, any difference is unimportant -- except that these are less expensive. Klein tools, in general, are beefy and high quality, and these are very much "in-family" for the Klein brand. If you haven't already got yourself a pliers wrench of this design, this is a great pair at a very reasonable price. And I like these far better than an old-school adjustable wrench. Much quicker and nicer to use.

Good tool maybe would have gotten the next size up my bad

Excellent value for money. Solid choice nice smooth movement ones I had before were clunky

Llego muy a tiempo, se ve de buena calidad, clásico de Klein, pendiente desempeño

Great pair of adjustable pliers, Klein tools do not disappoint!.

Very good quality and easy to use, will last a life time.
