Square Bail Making Pliers — Medium Mandrels 6mm & 8mm, Wire Looping for Jewellery & Crafts

Round-nose pliers cannot make a square loop, however carefully you work them. These carry two square mandrels — 6mm and 8mm across the flats — so angular bails, links and geometric findings come off the jaw with crisp corners and flat sides, identical from the first to the last. A practical answer when a design calls for squared components in silver, gold or copper wire.

The smooth steel jaws are shaped to minimise marking on precious and non-ferrous metals, and the box joint keeps them running true and aligned under repeated forming pressure. Cushioned non-slip grips give firm, comfortable control — a solid addition for bench jewellers, wire artists and craftspeople.
