360 Pliers, 9", Polished

Very heavy duty, quality design. Expect no less from Channel lock. Very good quality tools for a great price!

I gave a pair of these to a relative for Christmas and he loved them, very shocked that Channellock made welding pliers. All the tools you need for welding in one "swiss army knife" - change tips, clean tips, etc. Made In USA is getting harder to find, so definitely choose these over the lower quality stuff.

These are welders pliers intended for use when working with a MIG welder. I got these a few weeks back and I've used them quite a bit. To begin with, this is a very good quality US made tool and that's important to be. The tool is very handy. Until now I just used pair of side cutters to trim wire, other pliers to remove tips and an old pocket knife to scrape crud from inside the nozzle. Of course when welding I'm wearing heavy gloves and it's sort of hard to manipulate regular pliers - that is to open then to cut the wire for example and then cutting. These plier are spring loaded so they open up them selves so they are easy to handle with heavy gloves. I had wondered if such pliers would be that useful to me but indeed they are. You can buy imported tools for half what these cost and they are about half as good. Spend the extra money and get a tool that will easily and cleanly cut the wire, remove nozzles and tips and scrape the inside of the nozzle. There is even a small hammer head on each side of the pliers for light use.

I try to buy items made in the USA whenever possible. These are nearly twice the price of the Chinese brands but they are worth every penny. Everything works better with these pliers. They cut much better than any cheap pair I’ve owned. The grip on nozzles and tips is superior. They also do a great job cleaning out the interior of the nozzle. Hands down, the best I have ever owned. Spend the extra money. You will not be disappointed.

Great quality and I like that it is made in the USA.

I love the blue grips of Channellock pliers. These are a perfect fit for the application of MIG & FLUXCORE welding. Nicer fit and finish than the cheap stuff has. Smooth operation as always. Went on sale at just the right time for me. And these are made in Meadville, PA. No brainer, buy the good stuff. This is it.

Had a cheap set of welding pliers that while cost effective we’re not built to last any length of time. The wire cutting portion did not cut cleanly and the pivot joint was loose out of the package while still functional the movement was irritating. This is a set of pliers that are made in the USA and have a quality feel. The wire cutter portion cuts cleanly and the tips have a nice shape to allow for quick removal of splatter off the tip. Nice well made pliers and well worth the premium price.

Clips .035 mig wire very well unlike other cheap pliers
