IRWIN Tools’ VISE-GRIP Curved Jaw (CR) Locking Pliers are putting the power back in the hands of tradies around Australia, featuring a self-energising lower jaw that delivers three times more gripping power than traditional locking pliers, with no slipping or stripping. Backed by the legendary IRWIN VISE-GRIP Lifetime Guarantee, the locking pliers are available in two core models: Fast Release™, with a one-handed, trigger-less release and anti-pinch, non-slip ProTouch™ Grips; and Original™, with a classic trigger release.

The IRWIN VISE-GRIP CR establishes multiple contact points with the work piece, guaranteeing a significantly tighter grip. The slotted geometry of the new ‘self-energising’ VISE-GRIP Curved Jaw locking pliers exponentially increases torqueing power, and more torque means more clamping power. In addition, the hardened teeth are designed to grip from any angle with the patented curved jaw securely gripping and torqueing multiple surface shapes including round pipe, square and hex bolts.

IRWIN VISE-GRIP Fast Release locking pliers have a one-handed, trigger-less release, so they’re easy to open and speedily reset on the jobsite. In addition, the anti-pinch, non-slip ProTouch Grips feature moulded handles for comfort and leverage while reducing vibrations and hand fatigue.
 
The new IRWIN VISE-GRIP Curved Jaw (CR) Locking Pliers include lengths of 5-inch, 7-inch, and 10-inch models. The full range of VISE-GRIP locking pliers, including IRWIN VISE-GRIP Fast Release and Original locking tools, can be found at leading hardware stores across Australia.
