Turn the thumb screw to set the opening width up to 50mm, squeeze to clamp and the toggle action locks tight until the quick release lever pops it open, so these locking pliers hold constant pressure while both of your hands stay free for the job. The straight jaw profile holds flat bar, sheet metal and square stock along its full width, where curved jaws only touch at two points, which makes this mole grip the steadier pick for holding workpieces during welding, filing or drilling. Made from hardened carbon steel with a plated finish that resists rust and workshop knocks, the long body applies serious clamping force to seized fixings and makes light work of rounded nuts and bolt heads a spanner can no longer turn. One tool that earns its toolbox slot for mechanics, plumbers and DIY fixers: twist out sheared bolts, hold a pipe still while you cut, clamp glued or soldered parts while they set, or lock onto and pull stubborn staples and fittings cleanly. At 250mm this is the full size 10 inch model that suits garage and bench work; the serrated jaws close fully for thin sheet, open wide for bar and box section, and the plated body wipes clean of oil and swarf with a rag at the end of the day., Weight: 1.15625 pounds, Manufacturer: Tolsen
