Overview

With broad round-profile jaws and relatively long handles, these end cutting pliers snip off or pry old nails, trim wires, and pull out staples.





Clean Cut with Minimal Effort
Machining the blades to an optimized 90-degree angle allows them to be strong yet sharp, producing a satisfyingly smooth, clean cut that requires minimal effort.


INDUCTION HARDENED: After the full pliers have been heat treated, a secondary induction-heating process hardens just the blades to 58-64 HRC, making them extremely durable and able to cut tougher materials.
KNIFE-TO-KNIFE: Comprised of two opposing blades that meet in the center, it is an extremely reliable cutting method, especially for harder wires. For a clean, low-effort cut, it requires a high level of manufacturing expertise to produce the near perfect alignment of the blades. When this cannot be consistently achieved, some manufacturers may turn to a less effective knife-and-anvil design (one knife blade, one blunted blade) that doesn't require such precise alignment.

Cutting Capabilities



Unlimited Cutting Depth
The jaws overhang each side of the body creating the bypass clearance to cut off long nails or wires. The rivet is polished flush on both sides of the pliers, ensuring it won't be an obstacle.



High-Leverage Prying Action
The round nose profile provides a rocking prying action that creates easy, controlled leverage for pulling out staples or nails.



Wide Profile Handles
Generous in overall size, the handles have an extra-wide, gently rounded profile that creates a large, smooth contact surface. This spreads out the pressure against your hand so you can comfortably squeeze as hard as needed.



Lean and Practical Grips
Single-layer vinyl grips offer a bit of comfortable cushion and provide a smooth, yet nonslip surface. They're slim, not thick and bulky, so they stay out of the way when space is tight and are always easy to handle, even with gloves on.


Non-absorbing and resistant to most common fuels, lubricants, and cleaners. Won't get soft or sticky over time. Easy to wipe clean.

Features

  • Blades are finely beveled and induction-hardened to 58–64 HRC to produce a refined semi-flush cut
