SKU PLK00005
Tekton straight jaw locking pliers have wide and relatively short jaws that clamp and hold flat stock, L-angle, and sheet metal in position for welding or assembly. Deep, sharp, regularly-spaced teeth offer an evenly distributed grip on smooth, flat surfaces. Easily set, release, and reposition the clamp with one hand and with more control than a traditional pinch-style lever. Get extra leverage and fine-tune your clamping force by inserting a screwdriver or hex key into the through-hole to create a T-handle. The jaws are made from 4140 chromium molybdenum steel, an alloy that offers toughness, machinability, and corrosion resistance. The teeth are hardened to 45-50 HRC and should not chip or strip even on fasteners up to Grade 8 or Class 12.9. The pliers have a durable, nickel-plated finish that protects against corrosion.
