Great for 3d printed parts and Gunpla.
Style: 1) 165mm
I’ve been using it for my 3-D printed parts. Qualities is great, very tough, it also works great on gunpla without chipping the paint. I also modify mine so it has a spring.

Perfect for difficult work on softer metals
Style: 1) 165mm
I needed to do some work on brass and bronze components in an antique. Using steel pliers was not an option because they would damage the softer metal. These did the job perfectly. I was able to get a good grip and apply a lot of force. The plastic grip pieces were slightly damaged due to some sharp edges on the brass, which is fine with me. The jaws are meant to be sacrificial to protect what you're working on. These come with extra plastic jaw pieces, which is a nice feature. The plastic might not grip very smooth surface. For anything else, this is an excellent tool. ... show more

Great No-Marring Pliers
Style: 1) 165mm
I only use these occasionally, but they are a valuable tool for not marring what I clamp on. Eventually I'm going to buy their larger size pilers. Even though I don't have a current use for them, just because these are quality pliers and someday I'll need them. The extra set of plastic jaws they come with are a nice touch. ... show more

Well Made, Works Well For Fine Work
Style: 1) 165mm
Awesome, exactly what I needed. Just need to get some replacement jaws. I did find some online. As a tool from China, it’s particularly well made. I’m a fourth generation mechanic, so I have tools going back 120 years. These are actually well made. The machining tolerances are surprisingly good for Chinese tools. One complaint is I would prefer the pivot joint be a little tighter, these are pretty loose. They move well, and they’re not sloppy, but I prefer something that stays put. The plastic jaws are pretty decent, great for finer work where you want to prevent damage. In my case I needed to loosen some fancy plated compression fittings and leaving damage on the surface would just make my work look sloppy. These are over priced in my opinion. I’d say they’re probably worth maybe $6-$8. $12 for a pair of pliers is pretty steep. ... show more

Bike tech
Style: 1) 165mm
I highly recommend Igarashi IPS PH-165 for any bicycle mechanic working on high-end road or full-suspension mountain bikes. These are excellent for adjusting brake ferrules, barrel adjusters, or cable tension to fine-tune pad clearance and lever feel. Additionally, they can remove anodized hardware without damaging the finish. This specific set also includes replacement jaw retainers. ... show more

Acceptable
Style: 1) 165mm
They work as intended. Comes with spare jaws. I only wish they were larger - can't grip anything larger than about 3/4 to 1 inch across.
