🔧 Grip-On - 10-Inch Long Nose Locking Pliers with Orange Epoxy Coating Review

. These are much better quality than any other locking pliers I have used. Definitely better than Irvine. They are built like tanks. Absolutely worth the price. Nothing better.

As the name suggests, I'm a sheet metal worker. I install architectural panels on the sides of buildings 100 feet tall. My tools should work. Just picked up my second pair to replace the Milwaukee clamps.

Was very happy to receive them after reading other reviews but when I received them I noticed that not only were the jaws loose but they were so misaligned that they weren't even parallel to each other. Other. Completely disappointed and returned immediately. 👎🏻

Since you can no longer get American pliers, this one is as good as can be. Made in Spain, better than China. The pliers are good and the locking mechanism is better than most. The only complaint is the finish, not very durable. But it's a tool, what matters is how it works.

I bought these based on reviews saying they were better than Irwin brand Channel Lock products. This is BS in my opinion. They run smooth and work well but they don't hold up as tightly as the few Irwins I own, some of which were bought in the last year. I would look for Irwin with blue coated grips, they suit me.

I've become a huge fan of the Grip-On range of clamp pliers. I have the standard version and also this one with the long nose. Both work great, much better than a vise in my opinion. They are much easier to unlock and have a very comfortable feel, making them a pleasure to use. I don't know how the orange and black finish will hold up, but they're pretty easy to find in a toolbox!

Good: - Firm connections - Jaws meet right at the tip Sponges come off less easily than a nickel plating - Orange painted buttons are bright and easy to spot - You won't Made in China, in case that matters Bad: - They're also not made in the US, in case it matters. They are made in Spain. The orange color will wear off over time. In fact, right out of the box, there were a few scratches on the paintwork. However, epoxy paint is strong and is said to be splash proof (if you use it for welding).…
