Locking Pliers
Lock the jaws in a vise-like grip around a workpiece and these pliers stay clamped in place to leave your hands free. Turn the screw to adjust the pressure and squeeze the handles to lock.
Curved-jaw pliers are the most common style and provide a good grip on a variety of shapes.
Flat-jaw pliers are designed to grip flat objects.
V-jaw pliers give you the best grip on round stock, tubing, and pipe.
Grooved-jaw pliers hold round material in-line with the body of the pliers.
Pliers with lever release open when you press the lever.
Pliers with quick release are easier to open with one hand than lever release—push the handles open with your fingers. They have plastic grips for comfort.
Pliers with wire cutter have a blade for occasional wire-cutting tasks.

Corrosion-Resistant Locking Pliers
Choose a stainless steel tool for environments where moisture and other contaminants are present. These pliers resist corrosion that can hinder joint movement, but the jaws will wear more quickly than a steel tool. Lock the jaws in a vise-like grip around a workpiece and they stay clamped in place to leave your hands free. Turn the screw to adjust the pressure and squeeze the handles to lock. Press the lever to release.
Curved-jaw pliers are the most common style and provide a good grip on a variety of shapes.
Flat-jaw pliers are designed to grip flat objects.
Self-Adjusting Locking Pliers
Squeeze the handles and the jaws automatically adjust to fit a workpiece and lock in place. These pliers stay clamped on your work to leave your hands free; press the lever to release. Turn the screw in the handle to adjust the pressure. The curved jaws grip a variety of shapes and have a blade for occasional wire-cutting tasks.
