Innovative Design Ensures Precision and Easy Handling Irwin recognizes that effective pliers need to securely grip a variety of surfaces and also need to sit comfortably in your hand. Irwin's 8-Inch Groove Lock Pliers deliver on both fronts.The innovative press-and-slide button allows for quick, easy adjustment of the lower jaw, saving you time and frustration. The V-shape of the jaws offers multipurpose performance and helps you handle round pieces, as well as square- or hex-shaped hardware. The jaws' right-angle teeth grip in all directions to help prevent slippage and ensure you avoid damaging the materials at hand. In addition, the pliers' Multi-Groove Ratcheting System features twice as many groove positions than any other groove-joint pliers, so you get a precise hold as well as more ways for you to hold the pliers. This system's ratcheting action allows the pliers to be adjusted from the open position up to your work piece by pushing the handle up--no need to press the button or reposition. Precision Parts for Durability and Performance A metal injection molding (MIM) process is used to create the precision parts that make up the 8-Inch GrooveLock Pliers. This adds strength and durability to the pliers' build. Because this process allows for the consistent and affordable creation of complicated parts, it also plays a large part in ensuring accurate, reliable performance. ProTouch Grips Provide Comfort and Control A tool can only perform accurately if you're in complete control of it, and Irwin's trademarked ProTouch grips make it easy to handle the 8-Inch GrooveLock Pliers. Their non-slip, anti-pinch handle design provides improved comfort and control. Furthermore, since the well-balanced pliers operate comfortably, you can look forward to less hand fatigue when working on extended tasks and repetitive jobs.

My favorite "Go To" tool in my bag.
I'm a Water Process Technician, and carry a LOT of tools in rolling tool bags. I also have a small Belt tool bag which I keep my essentials - every customer tools I use at every job-site. These little guys are always the first out. They work great, the bite well, and they are my favorite tool (for my line of work). I'm on my 4th set now - not because these break, but because I often forget them at job-sites. Regarding durability - these things are worked hard. I often deal with Caustic or Sulfuric Acids, and these get covered in chemicals. When the job is done, I drop these into a 5 gallon pail of clean water, let them sit while packing up, then take them out and dry with a paper towel. Once back to my work van I spray them with WD40 and put them away. They still. look new. I refuse to buy a different brand. I really am impressed with these.

Good Plier, a bit weak
Been looking for this for a while, as I lost my old one that is slightly bigger version. It looks nice, and sturdy but there is a bit of play/wobble. The plier hands felt too thin and not very strong. Should have ordered a bigger 10 inch version.

Love it
These pliers work easily with one hand and are perfect for connecting garden hoses and spigots.

Good for Preventive Maintenance work or just about anything around the house
I started off seeing my other techs use this pair awhile back when I start doing preventive maintenance and bought a pair myself. I have to say, this pair is great and it can pretty much get into most spaces where I would need it to be. It has the sliding lock feature so you can change the size of what you're turning which I guess is a plus. It's great that I just have to push a button to change the size in any kind of call or job I have. The only con that I've ever had with this pair is that the handle cover will start to fall off due to the adhesive wearing out. I've had to put my own glue inside of this but it never really works half of the time. It depends what I'm exactly trying to turn in which is when the handle cover starts to pull off. Hell, sometimes I've used my pair of channel locks as a hammer for some cases and it has never broke what-so-ever. I would not recommend doing that if you want to keep your channel locks in decent shape. Anyways, I know you're probably looking through half of the amazon reviews because I was in this same instant. Each channel lock has their own pro and con of course when it comes to using a pair but so far I can recommend this. I would only say to IRWIN is to find a way that the glue won't start to wear and tear from use on the handle covers.

Great tool.
I'm a Chief Engineer in a hotel. With this tool and a 6 in 1 screwdriver we can address most of the issues we confront every day

Great Locking Pliers!
I’ve owned several locking pliers through the years and these are my favorites. The locking mechanism is easy and they stay where you put them. I’m not sure if they fixed the handles from coming off but so far so good. I really like the V-jaw type as you can easily loosen nuts without rounding them off. Buy them! They’re worth it!

All pros, no cons
90% of my work is plumbing and electrical and these are the ones I use. The vise-grip are by far the best. They don't slip in tight spots. And I use them underwater almost every day, and they at least get wet every single day. Little bit of pretty much any kind of lubricant style spray, WD-40 or something like that and any mild rust wipes right off and they slide like new and I don't have to spray it for several weeks, just wipe it off after it gets wet. I have all the sizes of the Irwin vice, and they're just plain the best????
