For bench jewellers and stone setters closing prongs on claw settings, these pliers are designed for the task. The specially profiled jaws allow you to apply firm, even pressure to the prong tip, reducing the risk of chipping stones whilst securing them in the mount.
Key features
- One jaw is grooved to securely grip and shape the prong tip.
- The opposing flat jaw provides even pressure when closing the claw.
- Box-joint construction prevents twisting and ensures jaws remain parallel under load.
- Ergonomic, curved handles with a white PVC coating for comfort and grip.
- Satin-finished stainless steel head reduces glare at the bench.
Who it's for
An essential tool for UK bench jewellers, gem setters, and jewellery students learning stone setting techniques. Also suitable for repair work where prongs need to be re-tensioned or adjusted on gold, silver, or platinum jewellery.

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.
