Large bails and big loops are awkward on round nose pliers, where the taper changes your diameter with every millimetre of jaw. These wrap-and-tap pliers fix the geometry instead: three parallel stepped mandrels at 13mm, 16mm and 20mm, so the pendant bail you wrap today matches the one you wrap next month. Form silver, gold or copper wire around the step, tap it true, move on.

The jaws are solid steel with no taper across each step, held in line by a lap joint that stays square under working pressure. Blue PVC-coated handles cushion repetitive wrapping, and beyond a wipe-down at the end of the day the tool asks for no maintenance.

  • Parallel stepped mandrels form three distinct bail sizes: 13mm, 16mm, and 20mm.
  • Solid steel jaws provide a sturdy, non-tapered surface for wrapping and tapping wire.
  • Blue PVC-coated handles offer a comfortable, non-slip grip during repetitive tasks.
  • Lap joint construction ensures the jaws remain aligned under working pressure.
  • Suitable for forming non-ferrous metals including silver, gold, and copper wire.

Who it's for

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.
