Product ID 70550 Product Name 5" Curved Jaw Locking Pliers UPC 726896705507 GTIN 10726896705504 Product Copy Engineered for Controlled Gripping Performance Palmgren locking pliers are designed for repeatable gripping force across fabrication, repair, maintenance, and assembly operations. The hardened steel construction provides durability under repeated shop use while the adjustable locking mechanism allows controlled pressure across varying material types and thicknesses. Compact Power for Small-Scale Gripping Tasks When you need the holding power of locking pliers in a compact, lightweight form, the Palmgren 70550 5" Curved Jaw Locking Pliers are the answer. Designed for work in tight spaces and on small components, the 70550 delivers reliable gripping performance in situations where full-size pliers are impractical. Precision Locking Mechanism The adjustable lead screw design comes with a 1/4" hex key drive allowing operators to fine-tune jaw pressure for improved control during gripping, turning, clamping, and holding operations. Once adjusted, the locking mechanism maintains secure contact throughout demanding tasks. Built for Industrial Shop Environments Manufactured with hardened steel components for long service life, these locking pliers are engineered to withstand repeated use in fabrication, automotive, maintenance, and general shop applications. Large diameter rivets provide secure joints delivering durability & robust pliers Improved Grip and Control Jaw geometry is designed to improve contact across flat, curved, and irregular surfaces while maintaining controlled gripping pressure. This helps reduce slipping during high-torque operations. Key Benefits 5-Inch Compact Design The 5-inch length is ideal for tight-clearance work, small assembly tasks, and situations where a larger tool is simply too cumbersome. Despite its compact size, the locking mechanism provides strong holding force. Curved Jaw for Round and Irregular Shapes The curved jaw profile provides excellent contact on round stock, small pipe, and irregularly shaped fasteners. The curvature conforms to the workpiece, maximizing grip area and reducing slip. Precision Screw Adjustment Fine-tune the jaw opening with the screw adjustment mechanism. Set the opening once for repetitive tasks or adjust on the fly for varied workpiece sizes. Locking Mechanism The locking jaw holds your set opening, allowing hands-free clamping. This frees your other hand for guiding, measuring, or performing secondary operations. Hardened Steel Jaws Despite its smaller size, the 70550 features hardened steel jaws that retain their sharp edge through repeated use. Common Applications Small fastener removal in confined spaces Fabrication and welding support Automotive repair and maintenance Equipment service operations Gripping and turning irregular materials Assembly and positioning work Holding small round stock during cutting or bending Light fabrication and hobby metalwork Electronics assembly and repair Model making and precision crafts Product Features 5" compact length for detail and small parts work.
