Bail Forming Pliers — 3-Step Wrap and Tap Wire Looper, 5/7/10 mm Barrels
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.
