Swanstrom Bent Needle Chain-Nose Pliers

These Swanstrom bent needle chain-nose pliers (S240E) are designed for the highest level of durability and comfort; the bent, tapered jaws are ideal for extra visibility in fine work. On chain-nose pliers, both jaws are semi-round with flat interior surfaces, tapering to a point from the pivot to the tip; the jaw tips of these pliers are angled perpendicular to the joint, enhancing reach and visibility. • These pliers have an adjustable lap joint; the screw allows the joint to be adjusted as needed. • The double–leaf spring holds the pliers open and ready to use until they are squeezed closed and delivers a fast, strong rebound for improved productivity. • The Soft-Touch™ sure-grip foam handles are longer, wider and ergonomically designed for maximum comfort over extended periods of use. All Swanstrom tool handles are latex free.

This tool is made of high-carbon, high-chrome alloy steel—the highest quality tool steel—and forged for the best combination of strength and durability. The jaws will not be nicked with normal use and will keep their shape and finish. The anti-glare finish prevents eye strain caused by reflective glare and increases visibility of the workpiece.

Swanstrom Tools manufactures technically advanced cutters and pliers, forged from high chromium, high carbon alloy steel, and hardened to 65 HRC. This material, along with a unique proprietary heat treating process and computer-controlled induction edge-hardening maximize tool life.
