Easy to use. well worth it. its too dangerous to try and spread a battery clamp otherwise. this is safe, easy to use, very effective.

Very good quality unlike the tool with the red handles and silver color metal also sold on Amazon

A great product to open up battery terminals before installation. Helps for a better job to ensure your battery terminals are fully seated.

GearWrench Battery Terminal Spreader tool (model 204D) March, 2021
I found this tool to be unusable, and I returned it.
First, I will say that this is a top quality, well-made tool.
To use this tool, the closed end is inserted into a used battery cable terminal clamp, and then the grips are squeezed to slightly enlarge the hole of the terminal clamp, so the clamp can fit onto the terminal of a new battery.
Amazingly, I found that the tool WOULD NOT FIT into the holes of either the positive or the negative terminal clamps!! (The two holes are different sizes. The tool ALMOST fit into the positive terminal clamp.) The “jaws” of the tool are just too wide! I cannot fathom how the tool would have been designed with these dimensions.
My circumstances: I was replacing a Group 24 car battery with top posts in the United States.
The work around: I removed the bolts from the terminal clamps. (They were seized and hard to remove: I used large vice grip pliers on the heads of the bolts. One bolt was disintegrating, and had to be replaced with a new one.) After the bolts were removed, the soft lead terminal clamps could easily be spread apart with a large flat-blade screwdriver prying on the ends of the clamps.

The media could not be loaded.
One of the low rating knocks against these battery terminal expansion pliers is that they won’t fit some of the negative post terminal clamps.
That may be true if you try to insert the pliers from the top of the clamp.
Battery terminal clamps are tapered from the top to the bottom with the wider side going towards the bottom of the battery post to make them easier to attach.
See my video to understand this concept.
You will see that these expansion pliers are indeed too large to fit from the top of the battery clamp. If you flip the clamp over, the tip of these pliers should fit enough to expand the clamp.
If you have a situation where they still won’t fit, remove or loosen the terminal clamp bolt and use a wide blade slot screwdriver to open the clamp where the bolt was enough to remove the clamp or use a battery clamp puller if you have one and remove the clamp once you loosen the hold down bolt.
Then use these pliers from the wider bottom side to fully expand the clamp.
These pliers have ridges intended to clean a terminal clamp. I still use a tapered wire battery terminal clamp brush myself because I think it does a better job of terminal cleaning.
I’ve used these pliers 8 times since I got them 2 days ago on 2 generator batteries (4 total clamps) and two ZTR mower batteries (4 total clamps) and on all of those smaller group 26R batteries, these pliers fit when I flipped the clamp over and put the pliers into the wider opening on the bottom of the clamp.
Hope this helps!

I’ve opened up terminals with a screwdriver many times but it’s always a pain.
I’ve also used several of these tools but ended up loosing or breaking them.
The Gearwrench model is sturdy and works better than any other I’ve tried.

My Toyota Highlander was riding happily down the road when all of a sudden, the power steering went out and then came back a minute later. 5 minutes later, into a turn, the power steering went out again and all of the electronics displays flickered, went out, and came back on fresh as if the car computer had rebooted…and it was in fact a reboot because all of the settings like radio favorites and MPG calculations went all back to factory defaults.
Because the car engine kept running, I thought it had to be battery or battery connection related. Drove the car home, parked it, turned off the engine and popped the hood and saw some corrosion on the battery positive terminal. I did some surface cleaning and went to the turn the car back on and nothing. No crank, no lights, dead. Then I thought “uh oh”. Took the terminals off the battery posts and scrubbed them down, reseat them, and then pushed the start button in the car. I got electronics, but no starter cranking. “uh oh”. Two things I was thinking…no juice was getting to the starter from the battery or battery was just done. The easier thing to troubleshoot was the battery connections. The Highlander uses marine terminal connectors which is great because, of all places, I was able to get a pair for 4 bucks from Kmart. The funny thing is that the wire harness that Toyota uses didn’t fit onto the “Universal” positive marine terminal. It does fit on the negative “Universal” terminal HOWEVER the negative terminal doesn’t fit over the Positive battery post (the Positive battery post on my Interstate batter is bigger than the Negative battery post). That’s where this puppy came into the picture. I was able to spread the Negative terminal easily so that it slipped snuggly over the Positive battery post and lo and behold, after connecting everything back up, life was injected back into the Highlander. $4 battery terminal + $20 battery terminal spreader compared with $100 towing fee to the mechanic + $100 just to see what’s up + $$$$$???? whatever cockamamie story they would make up to make me replace the whole electrical system and starter and alternator and battery……yeah this tool was worth the money.

This is an excellent tool. I read reviews for other similar tools, some cheaper and some more expensive. I have other tools made by Gear Wrench and bought these based both on some reviews and my own experience. Gear Wrench makes good tools. This was no disappointment and as soon as I had it in my hand, I knew it was a good one. It performed as I expected and I highly recommend it.
