Eppendorf REMOVING CIRCLIP 5720411400

I could not locate an official Eppendorf product page or authorized distributor listing that describes an item exactly named “REMOVING CIRCLIP 5720411400.” Eppendorf does publish and distribute dedicated disassembly/removal tools (for example multichannel pipette disassembly aids) and separate rotor/rotor‑key tools used to remove retaining rings and circlips from instruments; these show that Eppendorf supplies OEM tools for safe service and maintenance of its devices. Given that, the referenced item name appears to describe a small OEM removal tool whose purpose would be to remove circlips/retaining rings during servicing of Eppendorf instruments, but no manufacturer-supported specification for catalog no. 5720411400 was found.

Key Features:

• Intended function: removal of circlips / retaining rings from laboratory instruments (inferred from Eppendorf disassembly/removal tools catalog).
• OEM family/catalog format: catalog numbers in the 5720411xxx range are used for Eppendorf consumables/spare parts (no exact match located for 5720411400).
• Tool-type precedent: Eppendorf offers dedicated rotor/removal keys and pipette disassembly aids (examples show short hand tools, often made in Germany).

Advantages:

• Enables safer, controlled removal of circlips during service—reduces risk of damage to parts compared with improvised tools (reasonable inference from purpose of OEM disassembly tools).
• OEM-compatible service tool: using a manufacturer-supplied removal aid helps ensure fit/clearance with Eppendorf components during maintenance (inferred from Eppendorf offering specific disassembly aids and rotor keys).
• Compact, service-oriented design: similar Eppendorf tools are small, single-purpose hand tools intended for bench/service use, making field maintenance easier.
