6- PLIERS, CUTTING PLIERS, NIPPERS AND GRIPS

ACESA has high-tech centers for the production of pliers, and significant R+D efforts are being made to achieve top-quality ergonomics and maximum precision in cuts.

Its pliers are characterized by their:

Easy movement and effortless opening.
Innovative design: models are stylized for increased accessibility.
Ergonomics: bi-material handles. The result of an precise study on the optimum use and ergonomics of pliers. Made out of polypropylene and elastomer, with no-slip material on the grip. Greater gripping surface and better suited for hands due to their convex shape.

6.1 New Universal Plier and Cutting Pliers
• Special cutting steel with hardnesses of 45-50 HRC; cutting jaws are induction-treated for hardnesses of 62 HRC.
• Cuts rectified at high-tech centers.
• Lever arms studied to cut with less force.

6.2 Gripping Pliers
• Chrome vanadium and alloyed steels with hardnesses of 45-50 HRC.
• Semi-Round Nose Pliers: induction-treated HRC 58-62 cutting jaws rectified at high-tech centers.

6.3 Circlip Pliers
• Extensive range, for all circlip diameters.
• With retracting spring for greater handling flexibility.
• Special heat-treated steel tips. Superior resistance:
         - Nickel-plated for increased rust protection.
         - Tapered form for an excellent grip.
• Capacity and reference written on the pliers: facilitates choice of appropriate pliers.

6.4 Grips

• Grip handles and bodies manufactured out of high-quality cold-rolled sheet to ensure long-lasting tools. • Rounded edges for holding comfort. • Highly-safe rapid opening system to avoid pinching fingers despite high-pressure work. Locking screw for use in repetitive work requiring a specific jaw opening. • Hot-forged jaws to guarantee the sturdiness and durability of the tool. • Piano wire springs for smooth and efficient jaw opening. • Aluminum jaws allow for the non-adhesion of welding pellets, facilitating tool maintenance by avoiding the need to clean them. The light weight of the tools prevents tiredness during intensive use.
