Swanstrom – Pliers Set – Link-Forming Pliers and Peg Set (NR1000-1)

Introduction

This Swanstrom link-forming pliers set includes 16 steel pegs, offering exceptional flexibility for creating a variety of link sizes in your jewelry designs. Pair these pliers with the link-forming pliers jig (sold separately) to expand your wire-shaping capabilities. Designed with an anti-glare finish, these pliers reduce eye strain and improve visibility while working. They can be used with ready-made rings or handcrafted rings, but are not compatible with cast rings. Simply position the ring around the pegs and squeeze the handles to reshape it.

Key Features:

• Adjustable Lap Joint: A screw allows for precise tension adjustments.
• Tempered Coil Spring: Maintains hardness and returns to its original shape after compression.
• Jaw Stop: Ensures even, repeatable pressure without overextending the tool.
• Soft-Touch Sure-Grip Handles: Longer, wider, and ergonomically designed for comfort during extended use. Latex-free.
