Angled Teeth: Sharp teeth on each jaw are angled to work with the direction of operation, creating a high-leverage, nonslip bite like a pipe wrench. Adjustable Jaw: The versatile slip joint design quickly and smoothly adjusts to multiple positions, offering a range of options to fit the situation. Wire Shear: The 7-Inch Angle Nose Slip Joint Pliers have a shear-type wire cutter that cleanly snips copper, aluminum, and hardened steel wire like piano wire and guitar strings. Comfortable Handles A broad, rounded handle profile distributes force evenly across your hand to reduce stress and pressure. Slim, nonslip grips add cushion and comfort without adding bulk.
