Prong Lifting Pliers for Stone Setters — 130 mm Length, 5.3 mm Jaw, PVC Handles

Re-tipping and stone replacement both start the same way: lifting a prong without scratching the stone or skidding off the setting. These pliers are shaped for exactly that — the lower jaw cradles the setting while the upper jaw engages the prong, so the lift is levered and controlled rather than pried and hopeful. A staple of repair work at the bench.

Box-joint construction keeps the 5.3mm jaws parallel under load with no twist, and the satin steel finish avoids glare under the bench light while resisting corrosion. Red PVC handles give grip and quick identification. At 130mm the tool stays close to the work, where prong adjustments belong.

• Specially shaped lower jaw cradles the setting whilst the upper jaw lifts the prong.
• Box-joint construction keeps jaws parallel and prevents twisting during use.
• Bright red PVC-coated handles provide a comfortable, non-slip grip.
• Satin-finished steel construction resists glare and corrosion at the bench.
• Compact 130mm length offers excellent control for delicate adjustments.
