Pliers

Chain Nose

Chain nose pliers are commonly used in electronic assembly and rework. They are also used in fine jewelry and beading work. Tronex chain nose pliers feature a very fine tip (.060" x .050"), "eased" inner edges, and extended gripping power. Tronex chain nose pliers can have either flat-faced inner jaws or serrated inner jaws.

Handle Length

These pliers are available in two different handle lengths:

Standard handle length
511	Smooth-faced inner jaws
512	Serrated inner jaws
Ergonomic handle length
711	Smooth-faced inner jaws
712	Serrated inner jaws

Chain Nose Short Jaw

Chain nose pliers with a short jaw are used in jewelry making, particularly in wire work. The short jaw provides increased stiffness at the tips of the pliers. It also allows added control. All four inner edges of the jaw are “eased” to decrease the risk of workpiece nicking from the edge of the pliers jaw. These pliers have smooth face inner jaws.

Needle Nose

The Tronex needle nose plier is the same as the Tronex chain nose plier except that the jaws are machined in thin half cones. This thin profile increases tool access. The cone shape can be used for precision loop forming of leads or wire.

Tronex needle nose pliers feature very fine tips. Each of the two tips is .030" x .030". Also the four inner edges of the jaw are "eased" to protect leads or wire during forming. Tronex needle nose pliers have flat-faced inner jaws.

Round Nose

The Tronex round nose plier has a jaw formed by two long, perfectly machined cones. A round nose plier is generally used both to clamp and to form loops on leads or wire.

The Tronex round nose plier features very fine tips. Each of the two tips is .030" in diameter. The very long jaw of the Tronex round nose plier, 1.3", allows for an increased range of loop diameters, from .030" to .250" to be formed. The long jaw also can provide increased access.

Round Nose Short Jaw

The Tronex round nose pliers with a short jaw are used in jewelry making, primarily for making loops. The short jaw provides increased stiffness at the tips to resist deformation when working with heavier gauge wire.
