For jewellers and craftspeople who need to maintain a firm, consistent grip on components without fighting a spring. These UK-stocked parallel action pliers clamp securely and stay put, freeing you to focus on precise forming, positioning, and assembly work at the bench.
Key features
- Compound lever action keeps jaws parallel for a uniform grip along their entire length.
- Smooth, flat-faced jaws minimise marking on soft metals and finished components.
- Designed without a return spring, allowing the jaws to remain in position for sustained clamping.
- Measures 140mm (5.5 inches) overall, a standard size for detailed bench work.
- Satin-finish steel handles feature a pressed pattern for improved grip and control.
Who it's for
An essential tool for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and model makers who favour the deliberate action of non-sprung pliers. Also suited to electronics and fine assembly work where components must be held securely for soldering or positioning.

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.
