How to use

To use the pliers, place the object to be gripped between the elongated jaws and apply steady pressure to the handles. The leverage provided by the tool allows for controlled bending or positioning of wires and small parts. Ensure that the jaws are fully engaged with the workpiece to prevent slipping and to maintain maximum control during the task.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 160mm length is sufficient for your specific reach requirements.
• Ensure the tool is used only for its intended gripping and bending purposes.
• Check that the jaw profile matches the size of the components you intend to handle.

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate eye protection when working with wires or small components to prevent injury from flying debris. Keep the tool clean and lightly oiled to maintain smooth jaw movement and prevent corrosion.
