Product Details
The pliers feature crosscut teeth oriented at 120 degrees to each other, with serrations cut in two passes to form regularly spaced, diamond-shaped teeth that provide grip in all directions, unlike straight serrations where grip strength varies relative to tooth direction. There is a range of tooth types available, where smaller pliers with fine teeth are best for smaller precision applications and reduce marring of the workpiece, while larger pliers with more aggressive teeth offer a stronger grip on less delicate parts. The stout, strong build resists bending and flexing along the entire length to handle tough jobs, with thick jaws that taper to a fine tip at the nose to prevent rolling over or separating during aggressive pulling or twisting. The knife-to-knife cutting jaws are machined to a 65-degree angle, making them strong yet sharp for a smooth, clean cut with minimal effort; the blades are comprised of two opposing blades meeting at the center and are hardened to 58 - 64 HRC, providing an extremely reliable cutting method especially for harder wires. The pliers have slim, single-layer vinyl grips that offer a smooth, nonslip surface that is easy to clean, and the long, tapered nose with a fine tip enhances precision. The wire cutter cleanly snips copper, aluminum, and other soft metals, while the wide, flat handles provide comfortable fingertip control.
