For the wire work at the centre of jewellery making — forming loops and curves, making jump rings and shaping delicate components. The stainless steel jaws are smoothly ground and taper to extra-fine tips, so loop size is set simply by where you grip along the jaw and repeats come out consistent. Our wire gauge guide is a useful companion when you are matching wire thickness to the curve you want.

Box joint construction holds the jaws in alignment with no wobble under load, and a double leaf spring re-opens the handles between bends to spare your hand on repetitive runs. The slim, two-toned grips are contoured for a secure hold and made from phthalate-free material, so direct skin contact through long sessions is no concern. UK-stocked; we aim to dispatch orders placed before 2pm UK time, Monday to Friday, the same working day.

Common questions at the bench

How do I make loops the same size every time?
Form every loop at the same point on the jaw. On stepped or tapered jaws, a fine marker line at that point helps you find it again; pliers with a fixed loop size, a jaw stop or pegs do this for you, so see this product's description for how to set or use them. A test loop in scrap or copper wire first saves precious metal.
What wire thickness can I use?
If this product's description gives a wire size or gauge, stay within it. Annealed (softened) wire forms neater loops with less force; harder or thicker wire springs back more and puts more strain on the jaws.
Will these mark my wire?
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.
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.
