Flat & Chain Nose Pliers Set, 140 mm, Box-Joint Stainless Steel Construction
This set provides two essential pliers for precision work: one flat nose for gripping and bending flat stock, and one chain nose for wire loops, jump rings, and accessing tight spaces. Both are manufactured from stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to corrosion and wear.
The box-joint construction provides a stable, friction-free pivot, eliminating the jaw wobble common in simpler lap-joint pliers. The jaws are smooth to prevent marring delicate workpieces. As they are solid stainless steel, these pliers are fully autoclavable and suitable for steam or chemical sterilisation, making them appropriate for dental lab or cleanroom environments.
Ideal for jewellers shaping wire, electronics technicians positioning components, or model makers handling small parts.
