some sort of spreaders - but any idea what they are designed to spread? The shape of the tip makes me think they spread some sort of slotted clip or ?? - TIA

For spreading piston rings to fit over pistons.

Designed for spreading "horseshoe type lock rings", but probably would work on piston rings as well, imo.
