Pliers and cutters are hand tools used in a variety of applications. Pliers are used for holding, twisting, gripping, or bending materials such as wires, cables, pipes, or other materials. Cutters are used for cutting through materials. Pliers and cutters are useful for wire cutting, installation and removal of contact tips, nozzles, and insulators, drawing out wires, and removal of spatter from inside and outside the nozzle. Pliers and cutters are made from high-strength materials like steel, aluminium, and titanium and they are often coated with materials like chrome and polished for corrosion resistance. The handles or grips are made from plastic to make them comfortable to hold and provide a better grip.
Pliers typically consist of two metal jaws with handles that are connected by a pivot point. Engweld stocks a range of different types of pliers including slip-joint pliers, needle-nose pliers, slip-joint pliers, tongue-and-groove pliers, and locking pliers. Each type of plier is designed with unique features making them suitable for specific applications. A slip-joint plier is designed to grip and turn objects of varying sizes. Locking pliers feature a mechanism that allows them to lock onto an object and stay in place, making them useful for holding or clamping objects. Needle-nose pliers feature long narrow jaws that are ideal for reaching into tight spaces.
You can also find a wide range of cutters at Engweld, including diagonal cutters, cable cutters, and bolt cutters. Each type is designed for a specific task. Diagonal cutters have a pointed tip and a cutting edge that is angled to the handle making them ideal for cutting wires, nails, and other small objects. Cable cutters have a larger and heavier design for cutting thicker cables and wires. Bolt cutters are large, heavy-duty pliers used for cutting through bolts, chains, and other thick metal objects. The right cutter will depend on the application, the material being cut, and the level of precision required.
Engweld also stocks Hacksaw Frames and Blades.
