Common Applications of Pliers
● Gripping
The most common use of plier hand tools is for gripping. You can use these hand tools for loosening or tightening bolts, holding objects for stability, and pulling out nails, pins, or other fasteners. For instance, slip joint pliers are specifically designed for gripping objects and transmitting torque.
● Cutting
Some pliers are designed to cut nails and wires. Side-cutting pliers and diagonal-cutting pliers, often known as wire cutters, are used to cut wires. In most cases, the construction of their jaw makes them less suitable for holding large objects. ●
Bending
The plier tools can be used for bending purposes. The cross brace of pliers provides great torque power to twist and bend objects such as nails, sheet metal, and wires. What are Pincers Used for?
Pincer tools are designed to pull, cut, push, or twist different kinds of materials, based on the type of the pincer. Pincers that are designed with a rounded head like carpenters pincers are suitable for pulling out nails from objects. On the other hand, end cutters are suitable for cutting material.
