Pliers STAHLWILLE SZCZYPCE UNIWERSALNE 180 – universal pliers, length 180 mm, STAHLWILLE

Universal pliers STAHLWILLE SZCZYPCE UNIWERSALNE 180 are 180 mm long hand tools intended for gripping, bending and cutting tasks in mechanical, electrical and maintenance work. The pliers combine solid steel construction with accurately formed jaws to deliver stable grip and good control when working on fasteners, wires and small components. Their compact length makes them suitable for use in confined spaces, on service vehicles and in workshop environments.

Advantages

The hardened steel body ensures durability and resistance to wear, while the precise jaw geometry provides secure clamping without excessive slippage. A carefully balanced handle and pivot give smooth operation and consistent bite force across repeated use. The cutting edge is integrated for occasional wire cutting, reducing the need to switch tools during routine tasks.

Suitable for

• Gripping and turning small bolts, nuts and fittings
• Bending and shaping wires and small metal parts
• Cutting soft and medium-hard wires during installation or repair
• Work in confined spaces such as engine bays, control cabinets or service vehicles
• General maintenance and assembly work in workshops and industrial settings

Key specifications

• Overall length: 180 mm
• Tool type: universal pliers for gripping, bending and cutting
• Material: hardened steel construction for durability
• Jaw design: precision geometry for reliable grip on small components
• Cutting edge: integrated for wire cutting (soft to medium-hard wire)
• Finish: corrosion-resistant surface treatment

How to use

Position the jaws around the target object and close the handles smoothly to achieve the required grip or cutting action. For turning fasteners, place the jaws squarely on the flats to avoid rounding. When cutting wire, align the wire in the cutting area and apply steady pressure; avoid cutting hardened steel beyond the tool's intended capacity. Maintain a firm but controlled grip to reduce the risk of slippage and to protect surrounding components.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the pliers for wear, especially the cutting edges and jaw faces; sharpen or replace the tool if cutting performance deteriorates. Clean and lightly lubricate the pivot periodically to ensure smooth action. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and gloves, when cutting or manipulating small parts. Store the pliers in a dry place to preserve the corrosion-resistant finish.
