• These locking pliers are made from forged chrome vanadium jaws for strength and durability
• The jaws feature combination straight and curved jaws which are ideal for gripping round, flat and square profiles, making them an incredibly versatile hand tool
• The surface of the pliers is epoxy coated for corrosion protection
• The quick-release lever allows one-handed release, which is especially useful when there is limited space

Locking pliers, sometimes referred to as vice-grips or mole grips depending on the style of locking mechanism they incorporate, are great tools to keep handy. Typically, locking pliers are used where more torque is needed to pry or remove objects or where added grip is needed for holding objects in place.

These pliers have adaptable jaw sizes dependent on the fastening.
