I recently purchased a set of joint pliers for my industrial use. My analysis of this product showed that it was extremely well-made and durable .The grip was comfortable to handle and the pliers could easily handle heavy-duty tasks. The pros of this product far outweighed the cons but the only improvement I would suggest is for the hinge to be slightly tighter. Overall, I highly recommend these pliers to anyone in the industrial field!
Through trial and error, I found that these joint pliers frequently slipped and were difficult to work with .The handles were uncomfortable and offered little grip. Although they are affordable, the frustration they cause is not worth the cost..
Pros
Affordable
Cons
Unreliable, uncomfortable, and frustrating to use.
The teeth are very sharp so you have a good grip on what needs to be cut. They passed the same tests as my previously used channellocks. I like how evenly the jaws close and how narrow the head is.
