Description
The Irwin Vise-Grip 8" Original Locking Pliers/Sheet Metal Tool (23) is an essential tool for anyone working with sheet metal or upholstery. Its unique design allows it to perform two critical functions: as a powerful locking pliers and as a dedicated sheet metal tool.

The turn screw allows you to easily adjust the pressure of the jaws to match the thickness of your material, so you get the perfect grip every time. This feature is particularly useful for repetitive tasks, as the setting remains constant until you change it. Made from high-grade, heat-treated alloy steel, these pliers are built to withstand the rigors of frequent use, offering lasting durability and performance. The tool is expertly designed to make tasks like bending, forming, and crimping sheet metal straightforward and efficient, helping you achieve professional results with minimal effort. Whether you're making "bread-pan corners" or working on other detailed fabrication projects, the Irwin Vise-Grip 8" Locking Pliers provide the reliability and control you need to get the job done right.
