Swanstrom - Pliers - Parallel-Action Heavy-Duty Bail-Forming Pliers (NR1351)
The Swanstrom Parallel-Action Heavy-Duty Bail-Forming Pliers (NR1351) are engineered for precision forming work that demands both strength and control. Built with a parallel-action compound joint, these pliers maintain even pressure across the jaws, allowing you to form consistent loops, bails, jump rings, S-hooks, and other jewelry findings with accuracy and ease. Designed for professional use, they excel when working with harder metals while still delivering smooth, repeatable results.
