A straightforward pair of flat nose pliers for beading, wire work and findings assembly — a sensible staple for a student kit or a spare at a second bench station. The slim jaws taper to a fine point and grip delicate work firmly without marking it, while the narrow profile reaches into confined assemblies that bulkier pliers cannot.

Leaf spring construction gives a consistent, self-opening action on repetitive tasks, the vinyl-coated handles keep the grip comfortable through longer sessions, and the matte black finish on the steel body keeps glare off the work under bench lighting. At 5 inches overall, it stays manageable for fine, close work. UK-stocked.

  • Smooth, parallel jaws taper to a fine point for a firm, non-marring grip on delicate work.
  • Slender profile allows improved manoeuvrability in confined spaces during assembly.
  • Leaf spring construction provides a consistent, self-opening action for repetitive tasks.
  • Simple vinyl-coated handles offer a comfortable and secure grip for extended use.
  • Matte black finish on the steel body helps to reduce glare and reflections at the bench.

Who it's for

A practical, UK-stocked tool for beaders, jewellery students, and hobbyists who require a functional pair of pliers for daily craft use. Also suitable for model making and delicate electronics work where space is limited.

Common questions at the bench

Which jaw shape suits which job?
Round nose jaws form loops and curves. Chain nose (snipe nose) jaws taper to a fine tip for gripping and bending in tight spots. Flat nose jaws hold work and make crisp, angled bends. Bent nose jaws reach around and under a piece.
Will these mark my work?
Any jaw can mark soft metal or a polished finish if you grip too hard or the jaws are dirty, and serrated or textured jaws mark more easily than smooth ones. Use the lightest grip that holds the piece and keep the jaws clean; on finished or plated work, cover metal jaws with masking tape or use nylon-jawed pliers.
Can they cut wire?
Only if this product's description says it has a cutting edge or built-in cutter. Otherwise use a separate wire cutter; cutting or twisting hard wire in holding jaws can damage the jaw faces.
How should I look after them?
Wipe them clean after use, keep them dry and store them so the jaws do not knock against other tools. Keep the moving parts free of grit and filings so the action stays smooth, and do not use them as a hammer or a lever.
