For pulling matched loops and bails without measuring a single one. Three stepped barrels on one jaw — 5 mm, 7 mm and 10 mm — mean small, standard and large pendant bails all come off the same tool at a repeatable size, which is exactly what matched earring pairs and production runs demand. Pairing wire thickness to loop size is easier with our wire gauge guide.

The opposing jaw is smooth with a round profile so soft wire is never marred as it wraps, and a box joint keeps both jaws in parallel alignment through the squeeze. Red plastic-dipped handles give a comfortable, non-slip grip, and the tool suits non-ferrous wire — silver, gold and copper all form cleanly.

  • One jaw features three stepped barrels at 5mm, 7mm, and 10mm diameters.
  • Opposing jaw is a smooth, round profile to prevent marring soft wire.
  • Constructed with a box joint for reliable, parallel jaw alignment during use.
  • Fitted with red, plastic-dipped handles for a comfortable, non-slip grip.
  • Suitable for forming loops in non-ferrous metals like silver, gold, and copper wire.

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.
