The BLACK+DECKER 160mm Long Nose Plier is a hand tool with long, tapering jaws designed to reach into tight spaces and grab, bend, twist or cut wires with precision and control — perfect when standard pliers just won’t fit. What really stands out is the forged carbon steel jaws that are heat‑treated to take the knocks of everyday workshop use without folding up under pressure.

It also comes with bi‑material soft grip handles that let you wrestle wire and small hardware without your hands going numb — and that matters a lot on a job site or during long DIY sessions.

Key Features:

• 160mm Jaw Length - Provides reach into confined spots that standard pliers can’t access.
• Heat‑Treated Steel Jaws - Gives you consistent grip and edge retention over years of use.
• Serrated Jaw Faces - Helps hold slippery wires and small parts steady.
• Bi‑Material Soft Grip Handles - Cuts down on hand fatigue when you’re working a long day.
• ANSI Conforming Design - Built to meet tool performance standards so it behaves the way pros expect.

Applications

This long nose plier is ideal for grabbing, twisting, bending and cutting wire, whether you’re doing electrical work in wall boxes, threading cable through conduit, or fiddling with connectors deep in an engine bay. It also shines when you’re sorting small hardware — like springs or clips — or straightening bent bits on assemblies where precision matters.

Why Choose This Model

Here’s the thing — you don’t always need a heavy industrial‑grade tool at twice the price for everyday jobs. The BLACK+DECKER 160mm Long Nose Plier hits the sweet spot between performance and price. The handles feel right in your grip, the nose is narrow enough for detailed work, and the pivot action is smooth enough that you won’t be wrestling the tool when you should be working. It’s a workhorse in a light‑to‑medium duty category.
