Streamline your bench work with these 5.5-inch half-round flat nose pliers, ideal for precise forming of wire and sheet metal.

What it does

These pliers expertly combine two essential jaw shapes for intricate metal manipulation. The flat inner jaw provides a secure grip for straightening wire or creating sharp, defined bends in sheet metal. Simultaneously, the opposing half-round jaw allows for effortless shaping of curves, loops, and rings. A smooth, double-leaf spring mechanism ensures a consistent, self-opening action, crucial for repetitive tasks, while the ergonomically curved PVC grips minimise fatigue during extended use.

How to use it

  • Grip wire or sheet metal securely between the jaws.
  • Gently bend or form to achieve desired shapes.
  • Wipe clean after use for lasting performance.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for UK jewellers, silversmiths, and serious hobbyists, these pliers are well suited to intermediate to professional bench workers. They replace the need for multiple tool changes when working with both flat and curved elements, streamlining processes like bezel setting and wire wrapping.

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.
