Pliers

Pliers are made in various shapes and sizes and for many uses. Some are used for
gripping something round like a pipe or rod, some are used for twisting wires, and others

 Use to grip round square, flat and hexagonal objects.


 Can apply limited torque (twisting force) without damaging the work.

Proper use of diagonal cutting pliers:

 For work involving cutting and skinning wires, cutting and removing pins, nails and
other fasteners.
Proper use of flat nose pliers:

 Common pliers, used in many applications and assembly work.


 Use to grip, turn and bend wires.
