Create consistent, precisely sized loops for jewellery components with these medium round bail-making pliers.

What it does

These pliers feature a dual-step jaw design, offering 3.5mm and 5.5mm mandrels to form wire loops. The opposing concave jaw guides the wire securely around the chosen step, ensuring a clean, repeatable bend. Their robust box-joint construction maintains jaw alignment, critical for accurate work under pressure, while the polished steel surfaces prevent scratching delicate wire.

How to use it

  • Select the desired loop size on the stepped jaw.
  • Gently grip wire and curve around the mandrel.
  • Form clean, uniform bails for pendants and connectors.

Who it's for

Essential for bench jewellers and wire-workers producing multiple identical components. Ideal for silversmiths and serious hobbyists needing to create consistent pendant bails or ear wire loops efficiently, replacing less precise manual bending methods.

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.
