Tsunoda WP-300SC-S, Non-Marring Soft Jaw Water Pump Pliers, Replaceable Jaw Pads, Built-In Spring, 12-Inch

This tool came as was advertised! Great product

Great for Plumbing Fixtures Without Ruining the Finish I picked these up specifically for working on bathtub fixtures where I needed some grip but did not want to scar up the shiny finish with regular pliers. For that kind of job, these worked great. The soft jaw covers gave me enough grip to turn the parts I was working on, and they did it without leaving bite marks or scratches behind. What I like most is that they fill a very specific need in the toolbox. Regular channel locks are more aggressive, but these are much better when you are dealing with chrome or other finished plumbing parts that you want to keep looking nice. The built in spring also makes them easier to use one handed, and the adjustment range is useful for different fixture sizes. These are not miracle pliers for every situation. If something is seized extremely tight, you still may need a different approach. But for normal plumbing work where protecting the finish matters, they do exactly what I wanted them to do. For bathtub trim, faucet parts, and similar fixtures, these were a very handy tool to have. They seem durable and are a good value for the money. You can't crank on something with them, but I feel they will hold up well over time.

Was a bit disappointed. I bought these to work in chrome kitchen faucets. No grip. Plastic guards do not grip chrome round, at all. Waste if money for what I bought them for. And I paid more for this brand.

high quality. the soft jaws seem sturdy. i did glue them onto the steel jaws with silicone glue so that i did not lose them in the tool box. can grasp a kitchen faucet aerator small) or much larger diameters too

These work fine for gripping delicate surfaces without damaging them. They will not work in all cases. If something is too tight, the plastic jaw covers will slip off, or possibly deform and be damaged. If the jaw shape does not conform well to the fixture shape, then the gripping power will be diminished. If you are careless with positioning, you risk damage from the metal parts of the plier. When used thoughtfully, these can do the job, but they can't work for every situation.

Great for a non marring grip

Worthless will not grip enough to turn. Waste of money. It only got 1 star because I had to

I needed a pair of soft jawed pliers for some work I don on wood and plastic. I thought these would be fine. However, the jaws are too large for most of my requirements. I bought an extra set of soft jaws too. They are not the toughest channel locks. the handles are thin and flex when you put the squeeze on. They would work well on large plastic rings or nuts, like those found on faucets and other plumbing fixtures. I bought them because they were the least expensive.

These are great! At first I thought the rubber grips wouldn't be adequate to remove these seized on threaded chrome extensions - but it gripped very well and removed them without damage! These are Zucchetti shower flow controls that I did NOT want to damage for a valve replacement. I could not get them off without this tool. The build quality is nice as well. I'm very happy with them!

These pliers looked like they would be just the ticket for working with taps and other items that need force without scratching/damaging them. However they have a very large jaw opening which limits their usefulness.

キッチンシンク下の排水管が詰まってしまい、外すために購入しました。 これを使うと簡単に取り外し、取り付けできます。 業者に委託することを考えれば、かなりリーズナブルですし、定期メンテにも良いかと。

To loosen fitting on water pump.

The jaws are not soft they are hard.
