Master intricate wire manipulation with these 125mm parallel action chain nose pliers, designed for precise, mar-free gripping.

What it does

These pliers deliver a consistent, full-surface grip thanks to their parallel action mechanism, which keeps the jaws perfectly aligned through their entire opening range. The smooth, tapered chain nose jaws are ideal for delicate work, ensuring no accidental marking on precious metals or components. This precise control, combined with the compound lever action, multiplies your hand force for a secure, low-effort hold, making them indispensable for detailed assembly tasks.

How to use it

  • Gently position the plier jaws around your wire or component.
  • Apply steady pressure for a firm, even grip.
  • Wipe clean after use and store in a dry place.

Who it's for

An essential tool for UK silversmiths, jewellers, beaders, and serious hobbyists. These pliers excel where consistent, non-damaging grip is paramount, replacing less precise tools for tasks involving fine wire manipulation and small component assembly.

Common questions at the bench

What does parallel action mean?
The jaws stay parallel to each other as they open and close, so they grip evenly along their length instead of closing at an angle like standard pliers. That even grip helps when holding flat strip or sheet, straightening wire or holding work that must not slip.
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.
