Flat Nose Plier With Parallel Grip

Description

Flat Nose Plier With Parallel Grip

These parallel grip pliers hold wire and small parts with an even grip across the jaws. At 18 cm, they suit theater and back-table work.

An even hold

When pressure spreads across the jaws, parts do not twist out. Therefore these pliers hold securely during bending. Besides, that control helps with fine shaping.

Grip versus action

This pattern focuses on the gripping surface. Meanwhile, the parallel action pattern focuses on the closing mechanism. Ask us if you want help choosing.

Who uses parallel grip pliers

Trauma surgeons bend and hold wire with them. Also, scrub staff hold small parts while preparing hardware. Moreover, hand surgeons use them for fine wire.

Holding small parts

Place the part deep in the jaws and close gently. Then work on it without letting go. As a result, small parts do not drop.

Size

At 18 cm, the pliers give good leverage. Consequently, they handle moderate wire too. They fit standard trays.

Choosing between patterns

If you mostly bend wire, a parallel grip helps. However, if you also cut, choose a pattern with a cutter. Furthermore, many sets carry two or three patterns.
