Key Features
Two Minis, One Pouch
You get a 6 inch Pliers Wrench, a 5 inch Cobra Water Pump Pliers, and a belt pouch in one compact setup. That gives you a fast-grab pocket-sized solution for service calls, maintenance work, and tight-space jobs.
Built for Tight Spaces
Both pliers are sized for small components and confined work areas where full-size hand tools get clumsy. The thin head on the Cobra and the compact pliers wrench design help you work where clearance is limited.
Strong Jaws, Clean Grip
The Pliers Wrench uses smooth parallel jaws so it grips nuts and fittings without marring finished surfaces, while the Cobra grips round, square, hex, and flat stock securely without slipping off the workpiece.
Overview
The Knipex 2 Pc Mini Pliers in Belt Pouch – Cobra and Pliers Wrench, model 00 20 72 V01, is a compact pliers set built for techs, mechanics, maintenance crews, and anyone who needs real gripping power without carrying full-size hand tools. This is a mini pliers set designed for gripping, holding, adjusting, and turning fasteners in tight spaces. The big selling point here is simple: you get two of Knipex’s most useful small-format tools in one belt-ready pouch, so they are actually on you when the job shows up.
The set includes the 6 inch Pliers Wrench 86 03 150 and the 5 inch Cobra Water Pump Pliers 87 01 125. That matters because these tools do two different jobs well. The Pliers Wrench has smooth parallel jaws that grab flats without rounding off nuts, bolts, or plated fittings, which makes it a smart choice around chrome, soft finishes, and smaller precision hardware. The Cobra is the quick-grab tool for odd shapes and general service work, with a push-button adjustment system and self-locking bite that helps it stay put on the workpiece.
Knipex built both tools from chrome vanadium electric steel that is forged and oil-hardened, which is exactly what you want in compact pliers that still need to take real load. The box-joint construction on the Cobra adds stability, and the polished gripping areas and coated handles keep the tools practical for repeated use. These are not novelty mini tools. They are small on purpose, but built like professional hand tools.
On the Pliers Wrench side, the smooth jaws and cam action give you a controlled grip for pressing, holding, bending, and light wrenching tasks. Knipex states the cam joint can apply a grip force up to 10 times hand strength, which helps explain why a 6 inch tool can still do serious work on smaller fittings and hardware. If you do electrical trim-out, bike or equipment adjustment, control panel work, faucet hardware service, or any task where a standard adjustable wrench feels too bulky, this tool earns its spot fast.
On the Cobra side, the thin head and compact body are what make it useful. It is made for confined work, and the serrated gripping surfaces let it clamp onto round pipe, hex stock, square stock, and flat material. The push-button adjustment lets you size it directly on the workpiece, and once set, it stays where you want it. For small valves, clamps, drain fittings, and hardware in crowded spaces, that is a real time saver compared to fighting with a larger tongue and groove plier.
The pouch is part of the story, not an afterthought. It is made from durable polyester fabric and includes a sewn-in belt loop plus a hook and loop closure to keep both tools secure. There is also an elastic side holder for a pen or small light. If you work in MRO, industrial service, automotive, or electronics, having these tools on your belt instead of in the bottom of a bag means you will actually use them more.
This Knipex pliers set makes the most sense for service pros, industrial maintenance techs, automotive work, home repair, and serious DIY users who appreciate compact tools that still perform like pro-grade gear. If you need one pouch that covers small fastener work, delicate finished hardware, and odd-shaped gripping tasks, this setup is hard to argue with. It is especially strong for anyone who regularly works in confined spaces where a standard adjustable wrench or full-size water pump pliers just gets in the way.
Carry It Without Thinking About It
This setup works because it stays with you. The pouch rides on a belt, keeps both pliers together, and cuts down on trips back to the toolbox for small adjustment jobs.
- Durable polyester belt pouch with sewn-in belt loop
- Hook and loop cover helps keep both pliers secure inside
- Elastic side holder adds room for a pen or small light
Grab More Than Just Pipe
The Cobra is the tool you reach for when the shape changes from one task to the next. It is made to grip round, square, hex, and flat material without needing to baby the adjustment every time.
- Push-button adjustment sets directly on the workpiece
- Self-locking action helps prevent slipping
- Thin head is easier to fit into crowded work areas
Use the Right Jaw for Finished Hardware
Having both tools in one pouch means you can choose the cleaner grip or the more aggressive bite without carrying extra bulk. That is the whole point of this set.
- Pliers Wrench uses smooth parallel jaws for nuts, bolts, and finished fittings
- Cobra handles irregular shapes and small gripping jobs
- Compact sizes are better suited to small components and close-quarters work

Pro Tip
Use the Pliers Wrench when you are on finished nuts, chrome trim, or soft hardware, then switch to the Cobra only when you need bite on odd shapes or stubborn parts. That keeps surfaces cleaner and lets each tool do the job it was built for.
