Parallel pliers grip along the whole jaw rather than at one pinch point, which is why they hold wire and small components without crushing or slipping. Here a flat serrated jaw works against a V-grooved jaw, so round stock seats in the groove and stays put while you pull, twist or hold.
The compound box joint keeps the jaws true through their travel, an internal return spring opens them between grips, and the bare steel handles carry stamped texturing for control. At 140 mm they suit bench jewellers, model engineers, beaders and fly-tying enthusiasts — anyone whose materials punish a careless grip.
- Compound box joint mechanism ensures jaws remain parallel throughout their movement.
- One flat serrated jaw works against a V-grooved jaw for securely gripping round stock and wire.
- An internal return spring opens the jaws automatically, reducing hand fatigue during repetitive tasks.
- Bare metal handles feature stamped texturing for improved grip and control.
- Durable steel construction provides a solid feel and reliable performance at the bench.
Who it's for
An essential tool for bench jewellers, model engineers, and electronics technicians working with fine wire and components. Their non-slip grip is also favoured by beaders and fly-tying enthusiasts for manipulating delicate materials without causing damage.
