Maun Clamping Pliers 160mm/6.5″ Parallel Action, With Plastic Jaw Inserts

Description

Maun has been a trusted name in specialist pliers since 1944, consistently investing in design and engineering to create high-quality tools that make holding, straightening, and cutting easier and more precise.

The 160mm Clamping Parallel Action Plier with plastic jaw inserts is designed for precision work on delicate materials. Ideal for silversmithing, jewellery making, and fine craft tasks, it provides a firm, even grip while minimising the risk of surface damage.

The parallel jaws distribute pressure evenly along their entire length, making them especially effective for gripping, bending, and shaping fine wire, beading, pendants, and other small components. The plastic jaw inserts protect workpieces from marking, ensuring a clean finish.

A built-in locking thumb screw allows the jaws to be clamped securely in place, effectively turning the pliers into a hands-free holding tool. This vice-like grip is particularly useful when working on detailed or repetitive tasks.

Key features:

• Parallel jaws ensure even pressure and secure grip along the full jaw length
• Plastic jaw inserts prevent damage to delicate surfaces
• Locking thumb screw holds jaws closed for hands-free operation
• Wire can be threaded through the throat of the plier for added control
• Zinc-plated handles with textured detailing for improved grip
• Durable return spring for smooth, long-lasting performance

Specifications:

• Overall length: 160mm (6.5”)
• Jaw opening: 15mm

This tool is ideal for anyone needing precision, control, and protection when working with fine or sensitive materials.
