Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the TL 9/45 SRP and TL 9/90 SRP?
A: Both tools fit 9.5mm snap rings. The difference is the tip angle: the TL 9/45 SRP has a 45-degree bend, while the TL 9/90 SRP has a 90-degree (straight) tip configuration. Choose the 90-degree version when you need perpendicular access to snap rings or grooves.
Q: When should I use the TL 9/90 SRP instead of an angled version?
A: Use the TL 9/90 SRP when snap rings are accessible from directly above or when you need the tool aligned straight with the shaft. The straight tip is better for straight-in access where angled pliers would be awkward or impossible to position.
Q: What material is the TL 9/90 SRP constructed from?
A: The TL 9/90 SRP is forged from hardened steel with a heat-treated finish, providing durability for repetitive snap ring removal and installation on wheels, bearings, and axle assemblies in material handling equipment.
Q: How do I maintain the TL 9/90 SRP to extend its lifespan?
A: Store in a dry location protected from moisture. Clean debris from the tips after each use. Avoid lateral or twisting stress on the tool, as excessive force perpendicular to the intended motion can bend or break the tips.
Q: Is the TL 9/90 SRP compatible with equipment from different manufacturers?
A: Yes, the TL 9/90 SRP fits any equipment using 9.5mm snap rings, including pallet jacks, hand trucks, and industrial equipment from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other major equipment manufacturers.
