Are these pliers suitable for cutting steel wire?

While they can cut piano wire, they may not be ideal for cutting hardened steel wire due to potential damage to the blades.

How do I clean the pliers?

Wipe the blades clean after each use with a dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

How should I store these pliers?

Store the pliers in a dry environment to prevent rust and corrosion. A toolbox or tool bag is ideal.

The handles are made of a bi-material composition for a secure grip and improved control.

Troubleshooting

Blades are not cutting cleanly.

Check for any damage to the blades. If necessary, sharpen or replace the pliers. Ensure you're using the correct technique and not exceeding the material capacity.

Handle grip feels loose or uncomfortable.

Ensure the handle is clean and dry. If the issue persists, the handles may be worn, and it might be time for a replacement.

Pliers feel stiff or difficult to open/close.

Apply a small amount of lubricant to the joint and work the pliers to distribute the lubricant. If the issue persists, check for any debris in the joint.
