For glass artists, jewellers and craftspeople who need to securely hold irregular workpieces. These sliding hand vise pliers use a simple locking ring to clamp small items firmly, providing the control needed for chipping, setting and other detailed bench work.
Key features
- A sliding ring locks the handles, applying consistent clamping pressure without continuous hand force.
- Features one cross-serrated jaw for grip and one smooth jaw to help prevent marring delicate surfaces.
- Constructed from stainless steel for durability and resistance to corrosion in the workshop.
- A steel spring between the handles provides a consistent opening action when the lock is released.
- The 125mm overall length offers good control for detailed work on small components.
Who it's for
An essential third hand for UK glass artists chipping edges, jewellers setting stones in awkward mounts, and model makers holding small parts for painting or assembly. This tool is favoured by anyone needing a small, lockable clamp for intricate work.

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.
