Snap-Ring Pliers, Sherwood and Oberdorfer Pumps

Post by Skipd »

Have had the Sherwood pump on my Universal M-18 and it was showing some wear so decided to replace it with an Oberdorfer. Found that the Oberdorfer impeller requires a snap ring where the Sherwood could operate without it. Searched for a set of snap-ring pliers as the snap-ring holes are minuscule (as described in an older post). Found a pair on CatalinaDirect and they work nicely, their part number Z5725. The pliers are Wiha and their part number appears to be 32689.
