CHANNELLOCK® 422 9.5" Tongue & Groove Pliers have a unique v-jaw design that creates more points of contact on round stock and tubing. These pliers are built to last with a PERMALOCK® fastener to eliminate nut and bolt failure, patented reinforcing edge to minimize stress breakage and laser-hardened teeth to provide a better, longer lasting grip. CHANNELLOCK® V-Jaw Pliers are made in USA and forged from high carbon U.S. steel that is specially coated for ultimate rust prevention.
