Not so good my original

The problem I have is the lack of smoothness of the hinge which is tight and doesn't work very well. I smeared it with WD40, no luck so don't really like it.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some bugs

There is no better way to improve it

These pliers are comfortable to hold, grip small parts well and are easy to use – they act like an extension of your hand. I have a few in my lab, my office, and my workshop.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Weight

Pliers work well but if you need xcelite customer service this is good.

Pliers work fine but if you need xcelite customer service, good luck, they're not very helpful. So I would now choose a different brand. The Apex tool ships quickly and seems legit.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Don't really like it, everything is fine

Great for jewelry making

I actually bought these for jewelry making. I wanted a good, sturdy pair of pliers that I could dip into Tool Magic and use to work with rings to make chainmail jewelry. They work so well I now have 4 pairs of these pliers. Two remain clean and two remain covered with gum. I love these pliers. You are a very good buy.

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
Cons
  • poorly thought out

THIS IS MADE IN CHINA, NOT THE USA!

I ordered these because they are xcelite and made in the USA. Although the pen has an image of the USA, the one I received is MADE IN CHINA. I have to send them back because I paid for US production otherwise I would have bought a Chinese brand and paid half. I have to send them back but it's not worth my time or $10 of hassle. I guess I won't be buying any more Xcelite tools. Another American brand went bankrupt because of moving production to China. I will start switching to German…

Pros
  • Pliers
Cons
  • Long delivery time

The perfect little needle nose pliers for computer work!

I assemble many computers as a hobby and have bought many special tools to work with. These are the best mini long nose pliers you can use for gripping small parts, tightening zip ties, and routing wires in tight spaces. They are ideal for working with electronics or small computers. They are very thin but durable at the same time and have rubber grips for comfort. They have serrated jaws so you don't slip off your zip tie or drop the received part. I also like how they are spring loaded and…

Pros
  • Hand tool
Cons
  • Crumpled
