## Description

Product Description This IRWIN VISE-GRIP GrooveLock ProPlier 8-Piece Pliers Kitbag Set comes with pliers of various styles and sizes, as well as a 6-inch diagonal cutter, a 10-inch adjustable wrench and a kitbag for storage. Each set of pliers is designed with a press-and-slide button that quickly adjusts the lower jaw. This all-purpose jaw grips on round, flat, square and hex shapes. The ProTouch grips let you comfortably and securely handle the tools. From the Manufacturer Vise-Grip Groove Lock/Pro Plier Set has a press and slide button that quickly adjusts lower jaw. All purpose jaw grips on round, flat, square and hex shapes. More groove positions provides the optimum hand location for a better grip on the work piece. The ProTouch grips provide extra comfort and reduces hand fatigue. Ratcheting action allows groovelock to be adjusted from the open position up to the work piece by pushing the handle up. Anti-pinch design prevents handles from pinching.

Review: High Quality - First off, the design of these pliers is intuitive and user-friendly. The GrooveLock technology allows for easy adjustment with just the push of a button, ensuring a perfect fit for different tasks. I appreciate how quickly I can switch between sizes, which saves me time and effort while working on various projects around the house. The build quality of these pliers is impressive. They feel sturdy and well-made in my hands, providing a comfortable grip with their ProTouch handles. I've used them for various tasks, from tightening bolts to working on pipes, and they have held up well without any signs of wear or slippage. One standout feature of this set is the range of sizes it offers. With 8 different pliers at my disposal, I can tackle a wide range of tasks without having to hunt for the right tool. Whether it's a small job or a more demanding project, these pliers have proven to be reliable companions. The performance of these IRWIN VISE-GRIP GrooveLock pliers has been consistent throughout my usage. The jaw adjustment mechanism works smoothly, and the pliers maintain a strong grip on the materials, providing confidence in the work being done. As with any product, there are some downsides to consider. The price of this 8-piece set might be a bit higher than other pliers on the market, but I believe the quality and versatility justify the investment. Additionally, the size and weight of the pliers might be a little cumbersome for people with smaller hands, but I personally didn't find it to be a major issue.
Review: apples to apples this is a great tools set - Remember, with tools, like most things in life you get what you paid for and sometimes you get lucky by buying smart. I read all the reviews with the luke warm praise of Irwin tools and guys you are not buying Snap On so let us not compare a $ 79.00 per set tool maker to a $79.00 per tool from a precision tool supplier. For the Average Joe/Jane these Irwin tools are great, for me the oversized grip is bulky but for my wife, it is the first time she has actually put a wrench on nut and turned it until it was loose, imagine the look on her face- now she thinks she is Tim " the Tool man" Taylor. Since then she has fixed a door knob and tried to reseat the garbage disposal. That one crank changed her confidence in herself. The irwin set is better than anything you can buy for the price especially with a soft grip.and variety. As for the 3 different size grove lock well you and I may have the hand size to accommodate a 1.5 inch nut on a 10inch wrench but a women with small hands may need that 12 inch wrench to torque that nut. Irwin's sure grip tooth pattern means she will get the torque if she has the right tool. And with this Irwin 8 piece grove lock the right tool is at your side. For a utility set this is an excellent purchase. Everyone needs a good set of linesman pliers, needle nose, wiresnipes, and adjustibles as a base to any project-this set surpasses the store brands in quality and durability and comes with a lifetime warranty. It is not SNAP ON, MAC, PERCISSION or MAACO or GRIZZLY but If you are a professional and your are doing professional work, making professional money -do what real professional do -Go get yourself a set of professional tools. Otherwise lets compare apples to apples I use these on my cars, truck, boats and home and would recommend them without hesitation. I own the 8 piece set 7 piece set and the ergonomic pliers- good quality.I believe in the right tool for the right job and at this price its affordable.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is it just me or is there not an actual pair of "vice grips" in this set**
A: I also bought this hex allen wrench set, it is a perfect match with this product.

https://www.amazon.com/ROUPHY-Industrial-Strength-Increasing-T-Handle/dp/B07VT78VS3/ref=sr_1_42?crid=1712S8L2Z6WPI&keywords=hex+key+wrench+set&qid=1576057227&sprefix=hex+key+%2Caps%2C1259&sr=8-42

**Q: Are these tools electrically insulated? I can't tell if the grips will shield your hands.**
A: No, the grips are not specially made to provide electrical insulation. They will provide some level of insulation, but so will paint or masking tape - does not mean it's a good idea, safe, or should be relied upon regularly. If you want to see what properly constructed electrically insulating pliers look like, take a look at Knipex (world's greatest pliers, BTW) and you'll see their regular linesman pliers, cutters, etc., and then ALSO their 1000V rated electrical versions of the same pliers. The purpose-built insulation difference is clear, and they cost a little more, along with more bulk, as expected. I expect that if you are an electrician, you'd invest in the $$$ insulated version, and if you never or rarely worked on electrical things, you'd buy the regular version and take multiple extra precautions, etc. when needing to work on wiring.

**Q: Can I buy just the pouch I already bought the tools**
A: Amazon has and sells versions of this tool roll if this one can't be purchased separately. Type in tool roll or pouch and see what they have to offer. Hope this helps.

**Q: How big will the 12" groove lock open to?**
A: The Jaw capacity for the GV12 is 2-3/4".
