Glass Chipping & Breaking Pliers — Stainless Steel, Heavy Duty 6 Inch, Opticians & Art Glass

A scored line is a promise glass does not always keep. These chipping pliers concentrate pressure exactly where you want the break to start, so lenses and art glass part cleanly along the score instead of wandering — the difference between trimming a piece and cutting it again.

The jaw pairs a V-shaped pressure point with a wide, cross-hatched face for grip, in solid stainless steel with a satin, non-reflective finish. An internal leaf spring reopens the jaws after each squeeze, and the smooth, curved handles are kind on the hand across repeated breaks. At 6 inches (152 mm) there is leverage without losing fine control — as suited to trimming optical lenses as to stained glass work.
