If you try to make a long coil or perfectly uniform jump rings with standard round-nose pliers, you’ll quickly realize a frustrating truth: standard pliers are cone-shaped, which means your loops will be different sizes. The Durston® Round Mandrel Forming Pliers fix this instantly. Engineered by the UK's premier jewelry tool manufacturer, these heavy-duty 170mm pliers feature dual non-tapered, perfectly parallel jaws. They are built incredibly tough to conquer heavy-gauge wire, allowing you to wrap flawless, consistent coils without warping your tool or straining your hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eWhy You’ll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe \"Non-Tapered\" Secret:\u003c\/b\u003e Both jaws are perfect cylinders from base to tip.
