Swanstrom S328E Midsize Extra Long Chain Nose Pliers with Long Ergonomic Handle

The Swanstrom S328E Chain Nose Plier is a premium professional plier designed for jewelers, metalsmiths, and fabrication specialists who require extended reach, precise control, and maximum comfort during detailed bench work. Featuring midsize extra-long chain nose jaws, smooth non-marring surfaces, and long ergonomic Soft-Touch™ handles, the S328E excels at gripping, positioning, bending, and manipulating wire or components in deep, confined, or hard-to-access areas.

The extra-long tapered chain nose jaws provide exceptional reach compared to standard chain nose pliers, making the S328E ideal for intricate fabrication, accessing recessed areas, and precisely maneuvering small components without disturbing surrounding work. The midsize jaw profile strikes an excellent balance between reach and strength, giving you enhanced control without unnecessary bulk.

Its smooth jaws securely grip wire and delicate components without serrations, helping minimize scratches and surface marring on precious metals, polished finishes, and fine jewelry materials. This makes the S328E especially useful for precision assembly, delicate adjustments, and fabrication work where surface protection matters.

Designed for long hours at the bench, the long ergonomic Soft-Touch™ handles provide increased leverage and distribute pressure more evenly across the hand, reducing fatigue during repetitive tasks. The padded, textured grips improve control and comfort, making the S328E ideal for high-volume production or extended fabrication sessions.

Forged from premium high-chromium, high-carbon alloy steel and hardened using Swanstrom’s proprietary heat-treating process, the S328E delivers exceptional durability, precise jaw alignment, and long-lasting professional performance. The anti-glare finish reduces reflective glare and improves visibility under bright bench lighting.
