Origin

The front gripping area is ideal for gripping rounded or stripped fasteners while the side gripping jaws have been optimized with opposing teeth for maximum force. The third key feature is the push-button adjustment. The combination of these features provides the user with a unique and versatile tool. It is the industry’s first five-adjustment push-button slip joint pliers.
