Form consistent 12mm and 14mm bails for larger pendants with these parallel action pliers. Achieve uniform loops essential for statement jewellery production.
What it does
These pliers feature two precisely sized mandrels to create identical loops every time. The compound box-joint mechanism ensures the jaws move in perfect parallel, delivering even pressure for clean bends. An adjustable jaw stop, secured with a side screw, allows for repeatable loop diameters, eliminating guesswork. The satin-finished steel construction offers resilience for daily workshop use.
How to use it
- Adjust the jaw stop to your desired loop size.
- Grip wire and rotate around the correct mandrel.
- Store clean and dry to maintain the finish.
Who it's for
Ideal for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and wire artists crafting statement pieces. This tool streamlines the creation of large, consistent bails, replacing less precise manual forming methods for intermediate to professional makers.

Common questions at the bench
Will these mark soft silver wire?
Our flat-, snipe-, and round-nose pliers have polished interior jaws — they will not mark cleanly annealed precious-metal wire when used with normal grip pressure. For absolutely no-mark work on finished pieces, wrap the jaws with masking tape or nylon-jaw covers (sold separately).
Can these cut hardened wire?
Tungsten-carbide-tipped cutters in this collection handle hardened steel up to spring temper. Standard side cutters are for non-ferrous (silver, gold, copper, brass) up to half-hard. Check the product spec for the cutting capacity.
What is the difference between parallel and standard pliers?
Standard pliers pivot on a single point — the jaws scissor open and grip strongest at the tip. Parallel-action pliers stay perfectly parallel through the full opening, giving equal grip pressure across the whole jaw face. Parallel models are higher-precision (better for wire-wrapping and dead-soft annealed wire) but cost more.
Do they come spring-loaded?
Most of our bench pliers ship spring-loaded for one-handed operation. Where the spring is removable, the product description notes it. Spring tension is set for all-day comfort, not maximum grip.
