High-Quality Metal Forming Pliers for Makers
  • Non-marring
  • U-Shaped nylon head
  • Can be carved and shaped to desire profile

Our high-quality, non-marring, Nylon-Head Metal Forming Pliers are perfect for forming and contouring brass, copper and precious metal wire and metal strip stock without marring the material. Made of stainless steel, these pliers feature box-joint construction, leaf spring return and medium density foam handles which provide superior comfort and ergonomics compared to pliers with PVC-coated handles. Also, the nylon heads can be customized to your own design, if desired, by carving and shaping the existing head shape to your own specifications. Each plier includes an additional head for this purpose, or, to use as a replacement if the original head becomes damaged. Pliers are 5-3/4" long.

Medium U-Shape Nylon-Head Metal Forming Plier makes smooth curves up to 3/8". Head is 11/16" x 3/8"; inner "U" shape has a 13/32" wide male head that is centered in the female side of the head.

Hannah ★★★★★

The PVC-coated handles give a nice, secure grip, and the U-shaped nylon head bends wire without leaving any scratches. I've already carved it down to match a specific curve I needed for a jewelry project.

Violet ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the nylon head scratching my work, but it’s completely non-marring and the U-shape grips curves flawlessly. Carved the profile down a bit with a file to match my jig, and it’s held up perfectly on stainless.

Eva X. ★★★★★

Finally a forming plier that doesn't leave dings on softer metals—the nylon head is a lifesaver, and the fact that I can carve it to a custom profile means perfect bends every time. Handles are grippy enough for a solid squeeze, and it's held up well over a few weeks of steady use.
