Nonmarring Parallel-Jaw Pliers

For a strong grip that won’t damage your workpiece, these pliers have a parallel-jaw design with nonmarring surfaces. By clamping in parallel, the jaws make more contact with a workpiece than standard pliers and keep irregularly shaped objects from slipping forward when pressure is applied. It also means there’s less chance the jaws will nick your workpiece as they clamp down.
