Do the plastic tips grip sufficiently well on round and small faucet aerators?

These are big grips and ot designed for gripping small parts like the aerator in a tap. These are for 2-3 inch plastic nuts like on a cistern siphon or the nuts to a trap. All that said, they aren't even very good for that.

Do these come with the new tips on not the old style like others are trying to sell of! I’ve had enough of buying stuff to get the old stock

I can’t answer as I bought mine in 2018! However, if the product differs from the advertised image then you must be entitled to a full refund.

Are these pliers the older model with the red plastic jaw inserts or the newer model with the blue and red inserts? Both types are illustrated.

Mine is all red jaw inserts. However I bought mine in 2018 so speck may be different now.

Great tool as expected.

Excellent tool, as to be expected by knipex. Good size for multiple sizes, good grip and adjustability. One slight niggle considering the price, surprised it only came in a plastic bag. I know it was saving the environment and it does not detract from the tool, as my wife said does it stop the tool working? Of course not, get a life. But great tool, good quality,

Handy for holding flexible pipe to stop in turning when tightening, and for cistern assembly both.

For the right job these are awesome.

Make sure you only use these for jobs that won't damage the rubber jaws as the whole point is that they're soft and won't scratch or crimp anything - so they're actually fairly delicate. But very useful for chrome, brass, plastic - all things that you don't want to scratch or could chew up with metal jaws.
