Tips almost twice as wide as those of standard long-nose pliers give you a better grip on your work. These stainless steel tools are good for environments where moisture and other contaminants are present. They resist corrosion that can hinder joint movement, but the jaws will wear more quickly than a steel tool. Also known as duckbill and flat-nose pliers, use to grip, bend, and twist wire and other small workpieces. Pliers have static-dissipative plastic grips that drain static from your application, preventing buildup from electrostatic discharge (ESD) that can damage sensitive equipment. The jaws are spring assisted to open automatically when you release the handles.
