Nov 25, 2009 Stuart 2 Comments

These Grip-on 233-10 self leveling jaw locking pliers can be used on materials up to 1-3/4″ thick. Because of their pivoting jaw pads, these pliers can be used to clamp flat or tapered surfaces.

I was browsing Grip-On’s catalog the other day, and found mention of this unusual tool.
