Great multi use pliers for Mig welding. Comfortable and ergonomic. I wish the handles were a little thicker and straight but that’s my only complaint.

The pliers have been designed for welders and I have found them to be efficient in welding tasks. They fit my hand well and have useful several features built into them. I don’t use them for hammering but for all the other functions.

These are just good pliers, made without much quality in China (of course). Good thing is price, like most cheap tools these are copies of a real, American-made tool costing much more. This tool doesn’t cut very well, the nozzle cleaning tips don’t scrape very well and it can’t grip very well.

Finally! After shopping for days (3) for a decent pair of welding pliers, I found these. I kept finding the “same” welding pliers out there. They each had different colored or shaped grips, but they all were the same poor design, the same poor machining quality, and most important, the same “bad” or “failing” cutters. Most had a gap or space on the cutter when closed, which meant it only crimped the .023 wire I wanted to cut. These welpers have a nice but not perfect machine finish, they are plated to avoid future corrosion, and the cutter WORKS! The asymmetrical handles help you instantly know the orientation when you pick them up. 3 things I suggest the manufacturer could improve on. Make the cutter a little sharper, add a grip stop at the uppermost top of the grips that would help the users hands stay clear of any electrically conductive surfaces, and make them in the USA instead of china. One more thing, the angled not radiused nozzle or tip remover(s) allow a wider range of sizes and less slip. All in all, I am pleased, and I will promote these every chance I get. The price is fair. Way to go Lincoln!

This tool is made pretty good. Its easy to use & is helpful. I wish it cut the .035 wire a little cleaner.
Neil O’Reilly (verified owner) –
Pretty good product for the price. Just wish it had a different name in the American market. The only thing Mexican I like is food.

It’s a tool that works…it just doesn’t have that solid feel, kind of light weight feel and flimsy look…
