These 5-1/4″ long short, flat nose pliers by the Xuron brand are especially designed for chainmaille jewelry artists. Their smooth, 3 mm wide jaws provide an extra-gripping surface on jump rings for increased control and stability while assembling pieces. These pliers can be used with stainless steel, bronze, bright aluminum, niobium, silver, and copper jump rings up to 14 awg. They feature soft rubber grips and a gentle return-spring for increased comfort and reduced hand fatigue.
