Forming Pliers with Nylon Jaws, Set of 4

Accomplish a variety of taks with this set of four forming pliers. The nylon jaws on each pair of pliers shape metal and wire without marring the surface and can be filed and shaped, if desired, for specific applications. The tough, rust-resistant stainless steel delivers reasonable tool life and good value.

• These pliers have a box joint; one half of the joint surrounds the other, and the pivot is contained within. This joint holds its alignment far longer than a lap joint but allows the tool to open only as far as the box size.
• The handles are coated in PVC for a surer grip and increased comfort. Round-nose pliers have two round jaws that are and tapered from the pivot to the tip. They are ideal for making loops, eye pins, ear wires, jump rings, clasps, coils and curved bends. A slim shape and smaller size makes these ideal for a variety of delicate bench and wire-wrapping tasks. Half-round and flat forming pliers feature one smooth, flat nylon jaw and one stainless steel half-round jaw. The flat jaw is ideal for making broader, wider curves in metal wire and strip; bend wire around the half-round jaw to create a tighter curve, or firmly grip a curved piece of metal. Round and flat forming pliers feature one smooth, nylon-lined flat jaw and one tapered round jaw. The flat jaw is ideal for making broader, wider curves in metal wire and strip; bend wire around the round jaw to create loops, coils or tight U-bends. Thin flat-nose pliers are ideal for forming, shaping, holding or straightening wire or flat stock; the narrow profile lets you get closer to your work.
