Securely grip and shape wider metalwork without marring, using these 6-inch flat-nosed pliers with 12mm nylon jaws.

What it does

These pliers provide a broad, stable contact point for delicate components. The 12mm wide nylon jaw inserts distribute pressure evenly, preventing unsightly marks on sheet metal, wire, or spectacle frames during forming and adjustment. The robust stainless steel construction, featuring a non-glare brushed finish, ensures durability, while the box-joint mechanism guarantees consistent jaw alignment for precise control over your work.

How to use it

  • Position the workpiece between the wide nylon jaws.
  • Gently close handles to grip and shape components.
  • Clean jaws after use and store dry.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for UK bench jewellers and silversmiths working with wider sheet or flat wire, and for opticians adjusting spectacle frames. It replaces standard narrow-jawed pliers when a broader, gentler grip is needed, ensuring pristine finishes on delicate pieces.

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.
