As one of the largest and longest established independent tool retailers in the UK we supply professional power tools, hand tools, machinery and accessories. The gripping teeth are induction hardened to approximately 61 HRC, guaranteeing a permanent and secure grip. The box-joint design gives the use a high-level of stability thanks to the double guide while the pinch guard protects user fingers. The pliers boast high stability, thanks to the box joint design, and are equipped with a forged closing limiter that protects against pinching.

Despite their large grip width of up to 1 ½ inches (42 mm) and a wrench opening of 36 mm, these pliers are lightweight, weighing only 180 grams.
