These are the best have been using these for 25 years as a plumber, there is a reason they are all nickname channel locks, because these are the industry best and what everyone reaches for.

I’ve had a set of these for over 20 years and they have worked great for so many jobs, things I never originally thought I’d use them for, such as… I needed to pull out carpet tackless & the thousands of staples used to hold down the carpet pad, using these with the tip of the pliers facing down as leverage, it got the tacks out easily. I used a scrap piece of wood to protect the oak floor below…..ya you read that right! Someone covered beautiful oak floors with carpet! I’ve used them for plumbing when installing a kitchen drain, the large nut that is used for the drain basket is hard to tighten just by hand. I also keep a 2nd set in my toolbox on my John Deere 2xxx tractor, & its come in handy many times pulling nails in fencing to tighten loose nut’s & bolts on the attachments. This is one of those tools that should be in every toolbox!If this review was helpful please click on the thumbs up below, thanks! MikeTheReviewer

These channellocks are great as the handles are coated and helps the grip to be comfortable plus it also acts as an insulator to prevent/minimise an electrical shock. They have great holding and grip strength in the teeth and jaws of the tool which is the most important aspect when using such a tool….

Channel lock has always produced quality tools that perform very well. I have a smaller version Channel lock over the years it has always worked very well on small jobs, just as the 12″ is doing.
