How far can you push these little Knipex Cobra 125 pliers? I do multiple torque tests to find out how tight of a nut they can break loose. I wasn't expecting the results.
Take a look at my other Knipex Videos:

I'm so glad to see you applying counter torque to the torque wrench head. That's the way I was taught to use a torque wrench in the Navy. It drives my OCD crazy to see KZfaqrs using torque wrenches without holding the head of the wrench!

How do the teeth look on the cobras? I has a pair of chrome, Comfort grip 10” cobras that had a few of the top teeth flatten servicing a 1/2” gas line. They were 2 months old. Knipex replaced them I had to pay for shipping.

You could try as a torque test a bottle of old cough medicine where the syrup has crystalized in the cap thread and it has a child-proof cap. Whilst coughing, I used multigrips to unscrew the cap and it was still useable later.

125 or 150. 150 teeth are a little deeper and better for gripping a round surface but the weight between the two is huge diff so for EDC I say the 125mm are awesome.

Why shake it up? As long as you are shaking it, you can't tell whether the reason for the loosening was the length of the handle or not.

The inconsistent force you're applying when you loosen the nuts at the higher torque values results in peak torque amounts that are far higher than the torque value you set with the torque wrench. You'd never use a torque wrench by shoving it. You do what you did: you pull slowly and consistently. What you're doing is like trying to measure your weight on a scale while jumping up and down on it.

Right, principle of the impact wrench :) But that means that the pliers resists a greater torque than that applied by the torque wrench ... so it goes in the right demonstrative direction.

Your right John, that's why it can loosen them. It like loosening a lug nut with a tire iron, you can stand on the tire iron and it won't loosen, but if you bounce a little while you stand on it it will come loose. I like your comment. 👍

@@betomendoza5981 You and diezelle57 are both right, but I am also. The impact wrench analogy makes sense, as does yours. But I think I'm still right - you can't measure the torque at the moment of impact, or at the moment when you bounce on that tire iron and break the nut free. Peak torque is higher than shown, but as diezelle57 said "it goes in the right demonstrative direction." :😊

Yea, sure, a 12mm or something steel bolt tightened to 190Nm. I want to buy my bolts from where you're getting them. Unless that bolt was tungsten, it would had broke way before the 3rd test. I challenge you to prove me wrong! But alas, anything can be faked here, on youtube.

I just don't see the point, if you're in a situation where you have to use a diy cheater bar on a pair of small pliers odds are you probably got bigger pliers lying around. I would've liked this video more if this was purely hand/upper body strength.

You could use any piece of pipe as a cheater bar. Nobody is going to put 150 pounds of torque on a 5 inch plier with bear hands.

A cheater bar is solely a glorified metal tube of somewhat-correct-inner-diameter, and the chance of having that lying around is always higher, than having bigger pliers lying around. Sorry John Elder, just noticed that I repeated your answer.
