The very popular needle nose combination pliers now available in 7 1/4" length.. For use when working in confined areas thanks to slim head design and pointed jaws (anti-twist). Gripping surfaces with special convex contour provides a stable 3-point contact for secure gripping of flat parts. The asymmetry of the pipe gripping area allows round parts as well as hexagonal profiles to be gripped, held and turned powerfully without slipping. Milled groove in the gripping area permits small parts such as nails, pins and bolts to be held and pulled. Cutting edges induction-hardened (approx. 64 HRC) for easy cutting of soft, medium-hard and hard wire. High-grade special tool steel; forged, multi stage oil-hardened.
