Chain Nose Pliers

Maun Chain Nose Pliers - engineered for makers who demand accuracy and grip without compromise.

Designed with a longer tapered nose and parallel-action jaws, these pliers give you exceptional control when working in confined spaces or handling fine materials. Perfect for shaping wire, forming loops, closing jump rings, and gripping small components - all without slipping or marking your workpiece.

Parallel-Jaws - Reimagined for Jewellery & Craft Work

Unlike traditional chain nose pliers that rely on a scissor action, Maun’s parallel-jaw design keeps both jaws perfectly aligned throughout their movement. The result?

• Parallel-jaws apply even pressure across the entire jaw face - no more slipping or uneven grip.
• Long, precision-ground jaws (3-4 mm tips) for better visibility and access in detailed jewellery work.
• Fine control when bending or shaping precious metal wire.
• Case-hardened jaws (HRC 57) and zinc-plated handles for lasting durability and corrosion resistance.

Choose from models with comfort grips, return springs, or integrated cutters, all available in our range. Every tool is designed to help you work smarter, not harder - perfect for jewellers, crafters, and technicians alike.
