Proline plier 28772, 160 mm length, Proline brand hand plier

Proline plier 28772 is a 160 mm hand plier designed for general gripping, bending and light cutting tasks. Its compact 160 mm length provides access in confined spaces while offering manual control suitable for mechanical, electrical and household work. The tool combines forged high-grade tool steel construction, flat jaws with furrows for reliable hold, and durable cutting blades, all finished with a satin-coated surface and ergonomic handles made from high-grade material.

Advantages

The plier is forged from high-grade tool steel for enhanced strength and wear resistance. Flat jaws with furrows ensure a secure grip on wires, fasteners and small parts, while the blades are designed for high durability to withstand repeated light cutting. The satin-coated finish reduces glare and corrosion risk. Ergonomic handles provide comfortable manual control during precision tasks and prolonged use.

Suitable for

• General gripping and bending of metal parts
• Light cutting of wires and small components
• Mechanical and electrical assembly work in confined spaces
• Household repairs and DIY projects requiring precision handling

Key specifications

• Overall length: 160 mm
• Construction: Forged from high-grade tool steel
• Jaw type: Flat jaws with furrows for improved grip
• Cutting: Durable cutting blades for light cutting tasks
• Finish: Satin-coated surface for reduced glare and added protection
• Handles: Ergonomic handles made from high-grade material for comfort and control

How to use

Hold the plier by the ergonomic handles with a firm but comfortable grip. Position the flat jaws around the workpiece for gripping or bending; the furrows will help maintain hold. For cutting, place the wire or small component as close to the pivot as possible and apply steady pressure to the handles to complete a clean cut. Use controlled movements when working in confined spaces to avoid slippage and damage to nearby components.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the plier before each use for signs of wear or damage, especially on the cutting edges and jaws. Keep the tool clean and lightly lubricate the pivot periodically to maintain smooth operation. Store in a dry place to protect the satin-coated finish and prevent corrosion. Use the plier within its intended scope: gripping, bending and light cutting; avoid cutting hardened steel or using the tool as a lever or hammer.
