Grobet 5" Parallel Action Combination Pliers – Serrated Jaws with Cutter
Get a firm, controlled grip on small components with these 5-inch parallel action combination pliers. Designed with serrated jaws and an integrated cutter, these versatile pliers are ideal for jewelry making, precision assembly, electronics work, and general bench repairs.
Unlike conventional pliers, which close at an angle, parallel action pliers keep their gripping surfaces parallel as the jaws close. This creates a square, vise-like grip that helps distribute pressure more evenly across the workpiece.
The combination design brings gripping and cutting functions together in one compact tool, making it a convenient choice for detailed work where space and control are important.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are parallel action pliers?
Parallel action pliers are designed so the jaws remain parallel as they close, rather than meeting at an angle like conventional pliers. This provides a more uniform gripping surface and a square, vise-like hold.
What is the advantage of parallel jaws?
Parallel jaws help distribute gripping pressure across the contact area. This can be especially useful when holding small parts that require a firm, controlled grip.
Are the jaws smooth or serrated?
These pliers feature serrated jaws. The textured gripping surfaces help hold components securely but may leave marks on softer or polished materials.
Do these pliers include a cutter?
Yes. The combination design includes an integrated cutter. The manufacturer's listing does not specify a cutting capacity or recommended wire hardness, so the tool should be used only with suitable materials.
Are these suitable for jewelry making?
Yes. Their compact size, parallel gripping action, and combination features make them useful for many jewelry fabrication and repair tasks.
Can I use these pliers on delicate or polished surfaces?
The serrated jaws are designed for secure gripping rather than protecting delicate finishes. For highly polished, soft, or easily marked materials, smooth-jaw or protective-jaw pliers may be a better choice.
What is the V-shaped slot used for?
The V-shaped slot provides an additional gripping feature that may be useful when holding certain small or rounded components.
How long are these pliers?
These pliers measure 5 inches in overall length.
Are these sold individually or as a set?
Each purchase includes one pair of 5-inch parallel action combination pliers.
