For holding wire and findings that must not slip or twist under pressure. Because the smooth chain nose jaws stay parallel through their entire travel, grip spreads along the full contact length rather than pinching at a single point — which is why parallel pliers hold flat stock and round wire without leaving a mark.

A compound lever mechanism with an integrated coil spring gives a self-opening action that spares the hand across long sessions, and the tapered jaws reach into fine chain and small assemblies cleanly. Polished steel handles carry a stamped non-slip pattern. At 140 mm, it suits student benches and professional ones alike.

  • Compound lever system keeps the smooth jaw faces parallel along their entire length.
  • Tapered chain nose jaws allow for fine manipulation of small components and wire.
  • Polished steel handles feature a stamped pattern for an improved, non-slip grip.
  • An integrated coil spring provides a smooth, self-opening action to reduce hand fatigue.
  • The parallel mechanism offers a uniform grip, preventing wire from slipping or twisting.

Who it's for

A core tool for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and jewellery students working with precious metal wire and findings. Also favoured by model makers and electronics technicians who handle delicate components and require a secure, parallel grip.

Joseph I. ★★★★★

The parallel jaws grip evenly along the whole length, so my wire stays perfectly flat and doesn’t twist even when I’m pulling hard on a stubborn jump ring. They’re my go-to for delicate findings now, and the smooth surface hasn’t left a single mark on my silver.

Richard H. ★★★★★

The parallel jaws are a game-changer for crimping — no more twisted findings. They gripped a delicate chain end perfectly without leaving any marks. Exactly what I needed for precise wire work.

Olivia X. ★★★★★

I've been making chainmaille for years and these are the first pliers where my jump rings stay perfectly level no matter how hard I squeeze. The parallel jaws make such a difference for keeping findings from twisting mid-grip.
