Questions & Answers

What country did it come from? Thanks! ?

Pakistan

What is the width of the chasm between your jaws? I'm looking for some for 24 gauge wire. Most jaws aren't tight enough to grip this gauge, which is 28 gauge. ?

I can work with any gauge wire, including 28 gauge, with these pliers. I've never owned a better pair of pliers. I have all six Wubbers round bail making pliers, but I almost exclusively use these. I'd say there's no gap because they close so tightly.

With these pliers, how big of a diameter wrap can you make? For instance, what is the difference between 2mm and 3mm?

I inquired about this with the distributor, Beadsmith, and received the following measurements on 08/05/20:
- mmbr>- 26 mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mmbr>- 37 mm mmbr>- 31 mmbr>- 31 mmbr>- 31 mm mm - 21 mm - 21 mm mm mm mm mm mm mmbr>- 31 mmbr>- 31 mmbr>- 31 mm 32 mm

What kind of material are the handles made of?

A rubberized/plastic covering covers the handle, making it easy to grip and use. I hope this has provided you with a satisfactory response to your query.

Everything was done with them in the end
5/5

I bought these to use with various sterling silver wire gauges, and they worked great except for the thickest wire (the kind used to make solid bangles). It also has the almost magical ability to leave no scuff marks on the wire, so I ended up using it for more than just forming curves - None of my other tools, even dead soft, are as gentle on silver wire as this one.

Until they broke, they were fantastic
3/5

When the smallest bail diameter broke, I thought it was a good product. I use them frequently and expected them to last a long time; however, they only lasted about 6 months.

Pliers for making bails of exceptional quality! These pliers have exceeded my expectations! We originally bought an unnamed bail making plier, not realizing that Beadsmith offered a similar product at a lower price! The same day I received and used the offbrand pliers, I went straight to Amazon to look for a better pair, which I found in Beadsmith's pair
5/5

I'm so glad I found the Beadsmith ones because the offbrand ones we found previously were physically lighter metal, had more wiggle/give, and couldn't handle wire larger than 20g (I always use minimum 18g wire). br>br>These Beadsmith pliers can handle anything I throw at them and don't wiggle, twist, or show any give; we wish we had seen them the first time because it would have saved us $15. haha!.

Make loops in headpins and eyepins to get what I want
4/5

These were purchased so that I could make uniform loops in the ends of headpins and eye pins. I've discovered that the loops I make in necklaces don't matter nearly as much as they used to, but that poorly-made loops do. Earring with made/asymmetrical loops do not look good because the elements may not hang properly. br>br>These are great because you can make the same size loop every time. (I'm not sure I'd ever make jump rings - That is simply not something I am capable of. ) Because each section is a cylinder rather than a cone, the diameter of each section is consistent throughout. There are six different sections in total (three on each side). br>br>These are very easy to work with. I have small hands and weak wrists, but this has never been an issue for me. These are still within my capabilities. The handle is covered in some kind of plastic or vinyl, making it comfortable to hold and preventing it from slipping out of your grip. (There was no odor of plastic or chemicals. ) ) The fulcrum is in good working order, and there was no rust on the items when they arrived. The way these jaws close may not sit well with everyone. They touch at the very tips, but they are slightly separated near the largest loops at the base. If you're using thick wire (say, 16 or 18 gauge), this shouldn't be a problem because you'll still be able to grip it. However, if you use thinner wire to make larger loops, you may run into problems. (Because the tips close, you can make very small loops with thinner wire, which is what I'm mostly interested in. ) )br>br>Overall, I'm pleased with the results. They do what I need (and there isn't much of a learning curve), and I can think of a few other uses for them in the future (I'm new to wire). 5 stars.

I ordered this to make bails for the jewelry I'm making, and it takes some practice
4/5

I've only used it three times, and that was with practice wire; I haven't thrown away any wire that I've used and had to start over to get it right, and I won't throw it away if I have any leftover from a piece I'm working on. This tool will take some getting used to, but I think it'll be a good addition to my jewelry toolbox, which is slowly but steadily expanding. I wanted the bails to look more uniform and professional than they had been before I learned how to make them each time I made one. Yes! I like this tool, even if I need to practice a little more to get it down to a fine art, and I've learned to be careful and light-handed with it so as not to scratch the coating off any wire I'm using. Get this tool if you want to make bails or whatever else you want with it in your jewelry toolbox. Just be careful not to overwork it, as you don't want to strip the wire's coating. This is an excellent addition to my toolkit, in my opinion. I'll post an update on how well this is working for me and the jewelry bails once I've had it long enough to get used to it and use it without it taking up too much time.

The spring is out of alignment, and the handle covers are constantly slipping off
3/5

When I first used them, they fell apart. The spring had broken and had to be replaced. The slipcovers were removed.

Copper is the only metal that will work with this
3/5

They're incredibly ineffective. Copper can be bent, but not stronger metals.

Instead, invest in a pair of parallel pliers
3/5

Machined in a poor manner. The pair I got had a lot of slack in the jaw and didn't close completely flush. Because the pliers do not grip the wire evenly on both sides, there is some side play when using these. Scissor-type pliers have a common issue. br>br>In the end, I settled on some Excelite electronics round nose pliers for fine detail and some parallel action round nose pliers for general use. Parallel action pliers are much nicer to work with and are very heavy duty, so I highly recommend them for jewelry and crafts.
