Tekton Mini Long Nose Plier 5-1/8"L

Description

Features

Long tapered nose - offering extra reach into tight spaces the long nose tapers from a wide base to a fine tip. To make sure the tip can consistently grasp the tiniest wires or parts the base of the jaws is relieved with a small gap (0.3 mm +/- 0.1 mm) to prevent contact that would keep the tips from closing tightly together

Fine crosscut teeth - oriented at 120 degrees to each OTHER-60 degrees to each side of the jaw centerline-the serrations are cut in two passes to form fine regularly-spaced diamond-shaped teeth. Unlike single serrations cut straight across the jaw this pattern creates uniform contact across the jaw surface allowing you to grasp pull and twist evenly in any direction. To maximize the size and usefulness of the contact area the teeth are cut along the full length of the jaw not just at the tip

Built-in wire cutters - the second half of a versatile two-in-one design the integrated wire cutters cleanly snip soft metal wires like copper aluminum brass and silver in sizes 38 - 14 AWG

Recessed coil spring - gently assisting the opening action of the pliers the long-arm coil spring is neatly tucked between handles so it won't get in the way or be accidentally dislodged. The spring itself has a relaxed opening angle of 137 degrees-nearly twice the opening angle of the pliers-so it stays properly tensioned when the pliers are fully opened. Coiled twice it achieves the right balance of the force required to open the pliers with that required to close them greatly improving overall control and reducing hand fatigue

Wide profile handles - generous in overall size the handles have a wide flat profile that creates a large contact area for fingertips to comfortably rest and exert exacting control. Slim vinyl grips add a bit of cushion and a nonslip surface without being bulky

Custom-engineered alloy - formulated for key performance characteristics our pliers are made from a custom-eng
