Product Information

Full details

These 5-inch US PRO locking pliers are designed for mechanics, DIY enthusiasts, and professionals needing to remove damaged, seized, or low-head screws and snapped drill bits. Their primary benefit is a superior grip that minimizes slipping, even on difficult screw types, thanks to a unique serration design. A potential caveat is their specific application for screw removal, making them a specialized tool rather than an all-purpose plier.

FAQs

What is the primary use of these locking pliers?

These pliers are specifically designed for removing damaged, seized, or low-head screws and snapped drill bits that are difficult to grip with standard tools.

What sizes of screws can these pliers handle?

They are suitable for screw diameters ranging from 3mm to 9.5mm.

How do I adjust the grip pressure?

The grip pressure is adjusted using the knurled screw located near the pivot point. A hex key can also be used for more precise adjustments.

Can these pliers be used on stripped screw heads?

Yes, the unique serration design is intended to bite firmly into damaged or stripped screw heads to prevent slipping.

What material are the pliers made from?

They are constructed from durable chrome molybdenum steel.

How should I maintain these pliers?

Clean the jaws after use, apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust, and store them in a dry environment.

What is the maximum opening of the jaws?

The maximum jaw capacity is 26mm.

Troubleshooting

Pliers do not grip the screw head firmly.

Ensure the jaws are correctly positioned over the screw head. Adjust the knurled screw for tighter clamping. Clean any debris from the serrated jaws that may be impeding grip.

Adjustment screw is stiff or difficult to turn.

Clean the adjustment screw mechanism. Apply a small amount of lubricant. If using a hex key, ensure it is fully seated in the screw head.

Pliers slip off the screw during turning.

Verify the screw diameter is within the specified range (3-9.5mm). Ensure the jaws are aligned properly with the screw head and that the locking pressure is sufficient. For very damaged heads, try repositioning the pliers for a better bite.

Handle grip feels uncomfortable.

Ensure your hands are clean and dry. The TPR grip is designed for comfort; however, for extended use, consider wearing work gloves.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Open the jaws of the pliers by squeezing the handles together.
  2. Position the jaws over the head of the screw or the shank of the snapped drill bit.
  3. Release the handles so the jaws clamp down. The serrations will grip the fastener.
  4. Adjust the knurled screw located near the pivot point to tighten the grip. For finer adjustments, use a hex key in the screw head.
  5. Turn the pliers to unscrew the damaged fastener.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for screw diameters ranging from 3mm to 9.5mm.
  • Maximum jaw capacity is 26mm.
  • Effective on domed, round, and pan head screws.
  • Can be used to grip snapped drill bits.

Care:

  • After use, clean the jaws to remove debris.
  • Apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust, especially if stored in humid conditions.
  • Store in a dry place. Avoid exposing the tool to excessive moisture.
  • Periodically check the adjustment screw for smooth operation.
