Great for extreme precision on smaller electronics with a lighter touch.These pliers fit the bill for those who work with very small gauge wires in precision electronic situations such as grabbing components for placement on a circuit board during soldering. These are not for everyday grabbing of large parts or wires! Reach for a different pair if you are trying to grab and bend a nail, for example.I occasionally work with computer boards and the like, and these fit the bill. The precision end allows you to grasp right down to the small end of a fine part since the ends are machined precisely. The feel is good and smooth with a constant spring action. The flat end has enough surface to grasp, which is useful since the tool is fine and lightweight.These make a great addition to your computer toolkit that may also include small precision drivers and a fine soldering iron.
