Adjustable-Head Pry Bars

Smooth

Grooved

With 14 different head positions, these pry bars fit into difficult-to-access spots for maximum leverage. Because you set the head where you need it, these bars replace the need to have multiple pry bars on hand. Use them for jobs ranging from demolition work to aligning components. Made of steel, these pry bars meet ASME B107.410, so they’ll hold up in heavy duty industrial work.

Bars with a smooth head have no ridges, so they easily slide into tight spots.

Bars with a grooved head grip better than bars with a smooth head. They're less likely to slip during high-torque prying.
