Looking to buy Pliers?
Pliers are a versatile tool that every DIY enthusiast or professional craftsman should have in their tool box. This simple type of hand tool features a pair of flat or sharp jaws (depending on the type) attached to two short handles. Simply squeeze the handles together to force the jaws shut.
Despite being so simple, pliers are endlessly useful. Common uses for pliers include tightening nuts and bolts, pulling out nails, bending cables, stripping and splicing wires, crimping sheet metal and more! Our sellers offer plenty of pliers that professionals and DIY hobbyists can trust, including Stanley pliers, Bahco pliers, Knipex pliers and more!
Types of pliers
Since there's so many jobs a pair of pliers can take on, most brands make more than one model, with each one being specialised for a different job. Luckily our sellers stock them all, so you'll have no trouble finding the perfect pairs. If you're looking for an adaptable pair of pliers that is quite good at every task, choose combination or adjustable pliers.
Long nose or needle nose pliers have long, thin jaws. This allows them to get into places other kinds of pliers can't reach and makes them well suited for gripping and cutting wires, so they're a must for electricians. When buying any type of electrical pliers, make sure they are insulated with VDE handles and wear a pair of insulated work gloves for your safety.
Electricians could also need a pair of water pump pliers to adjust nuts and bolts. These have a moveable pivot and, much like pipe wrenches, are usually used by plumbers to adjust pipes. Other types of pliers include crimping pliers, locking pliers and hose clamp pliers.
