They are designed with precision in mind and are used in a variety of applications, ranging from electrical work to jewellery making. How to maintain long-nosed pliers Needle nose pliers are designed with softer and lighter materials in mind, and sturdier pliers should be used for anything too robust. For instance, using your needle-nosed pliers in place of a wrench to try and turn nuts or bolts will likely damage them. Though these pliers are somewhat protected from corrosion, adding a moisture-absorbing gel pack to your tool storage can further prevent the onset of rust. Why RS PRO?
