The IRWIN VISE-GRIP Locking Multi-Pliers with Wire Cutter, Curved Jaw, feature the legendary locking pliers performance tradesmen have trusted since 1924. Constructed of high-grade, heat-treated alloy steel, it has an innovative curved jaw design that provides maximum torque with pressure on four points on any style nut or bolt head. Pressure and fit is adjustable with just the turn of a screw while the guarded trigger release can be engaged with only one hand for increased versatility.
