For jewellers and wire artists producing delicate work, these bail-making pliers consistently form fine loops and bails. The dual 2mm and 2.5mm mandrels are ideal for small-scale pendants, earrings, and fine chain connections where larger bails would look oversized. All stock is held in the UK.

Key features

  • Dual round mandrels fixed at 2mm and 2.5mm for consistent loop sizing.
  • Concave lower jaw securely forms wire around the mandrels without marking.
  • Box-joint construction ensures jaws remain parallel and aligned under pressure.
  • Double-leaf spring provides a smooth, self-opening action for repetitive work.
  • Bright blue cushioned foam handles offer comfort and reduce hand fatigue during use.

Who it's for

An essential tool for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and wire artists who require repeatable, micro-scale loops for their work. Also suitable for hobbyists and craftspeople working with fine-gauge precious metal wires whilst making their own jewellery.
