    Choose these stainless steel pliers 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. Use them to loop and bend wire. Also known as round-nose pliers, their round jaws don’t hold objects as well as flat jaws. The jaws are spring assisted to open automatically when you release the handles. These pliers have plastic grips for comfort.
    Static Dissipative—Static-dissipative pliers drain static away from your application, preventing buildup from electrostatic discharge (ESD) that can damage sensitive equipment.

    Pliers

    Designed for looping and bending wire, these tools are also known as round-nose pliers. They have round, tapered jaws to avoid nicking or marring objects. However, compared to pliers with flat jaws, they don’t hold objects as well. All pliers have plastic grips for comfort.

    The soft jaws on these pliers bend and loop wire without scratching or marring it. Also known as round-nose pliers, these pliers prevent damage to your workpiece, but their round jaws don’t hold as well as flat jaws. Made from stainless steel, they’re good for environments where there’s moisture and other contaminants. They resist corrosion that can hinder joint movement, but the jaws will wear more quickly than steel jaws. The grips are plastic for comfort.
