IRWINVisegrip T214T Fast Release Locking Plier Set, IWT214T

Fast delivery but not impressed with quality of grips have another set of there's pliers from 10years ago and they perform better that these new ones

I have hurt my hands using the lever type grips which these replace. The fleshy parts of my palms get trapped in the mechanism and it hurts. Fortunately I cannot see that the same can happen with these Irwin tools. They clamp tight and can be pulled apart easily. I'm probably thick but I would have liked some simply instructions. There is a hexagon in the adjuster screw which is highlighted as a virtue but not a clue as to when it should be used. Is that how the tool should be released or is it tightened after clamping using an Allen wrench? Apart from that, pricey but painless.

As far as the product itself is concerned I would give it 5 stars but for the accuracy of the image, I give it 1 star! I got the pliers I expected, except that they didn't completely match the information. The seller is using an image of the updated version with the blue/yellow handle grips. The ones I received didn't have these. I'm disappointed because the grips are a useful safety feature.

My last visegrip was long passed its sell by date. These replacements are great and really hold on to things well. Glad I bought them.

Good bit of kit, does what you'd hope a gripper might

Good all round

WOW you get what you pay for...lovely movement. If you the type of person that likes to sound of certain car doors shutting then you wont be disappointed

Fantastic still using them now months and months on
