These 140mm long nose pliers are precision hand tools designed for gripping, bending and cutting in confined or hard-to-reach areas. The long, tapered jaws allow accurate placement and manipulation of small components, making them ideal where access and control are critical rather than brute force.

Manufactured from chrome‑vanadium (Cr‑V) steel and heat treated for strength, the jaws are machined and induction hardened to provide durable wear resistance and long edge life (typical hardness range HRC mid‑50s). The surface is finished with a corrosion‑resistant satin chrome plating to reduce rust and provide a smooth, easy‑clean surface. The tool conforms to recognised DIN/ISO/BS hand‑tool requirements for dimensions and mechanical performance, ensuring interchangeability with other professional tools.

The head type is a long, slender tapered nose with finely serrated gripping faces to hold small parts securely without excessive marking. A precision cutting edge close to the fulcrum is included for cutting soft wires and component leads; this edge is hardened separately for clean cuts and sustained sharpness. The handles feature ergonomic, double‑dip PVC grips for comfortable control and reduced hand fatigue during repeated use; these grips provide slip resistance but are not rated for live electrical work.

Typical applications for these long nose pliers include electrical wiring and cable work, electronics assembly and repair, jewellery and craft making, model engineering, plumbing work in tight spaces and general maintenance tasks. Industries that most commonly use this style of pliers are electrical contracting, telecommunications, automotive workshops, manufacturing assembly and HVAC maintenance where accurate manipulation of small parts or wires is required.

Key benefits include good corrosion resistance from the plated finish, robust strength from the Cr‑V steel and heat treatment, and precise control from the fine tapered jaws. The cutting edge and serrated gripping faces increase the tool’s versatility, making it compatible with a wide range of small fastening and wiring tasks.
