Details
Straight Jaw Profile
Wide and relatively short jaws 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.
Pull-to-Release Lever
Easily set, release, and reposition the clamp with one hand and with more control than a traditional pinch-style lever.
Large Adjustment Knob
The adjustment knob is knurled and round to provide grip for making adjustments even when you’re wearing gloves or have slippery hands.
Tensioning Through-Hole
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.
High-Strength Rivets
Three main rivets work together to make up the 4-point mechanical structure of the pliers and give it its strength. To make sure ours can withstand high shear forces, the rivets are made from tough 4135 chromium molybdenum steel.
Tekton #PLK10010
Strong Jaws and Teeth
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.
Durable Nickel-Plated Finish
Before assembly, the individual jaw, handle, lever, and crossbar parts are shot-peened to create smooth, consistent surfaces. The final finish is a durable nickel plating that protects against corrosion.
