Fastener retainer removal tool

摘要

A fastener retainer removal tool comprises a handle, a shank extending from the handle, and a tip at the distal end of the shank. The tip has a narrow portion and a wide portion divided by a slot that is tapered outward on one side. The other end of the slot is enlarged to hold a workpiece inside the slot. The narrow portion of the tip is used for guiding safety wire and cotter keys into the slot. The wide portion of the tip is used as a lever to assist in bending thick cotter keys.
