Jaws
Jaws are heavy cast steel that has been chrome plated. The upper jaw is welded solid to the upper handle. An important feature of Vise-Grip's Large Jaw line is their ability to grasp around pipes and such for plumbing or welding.There is a serrated gripping area and an anvil type wire cutter.
Handles/Frame
Handles are a much heavier gage of steel than most multitools. Also note that there is no lock release lever as found on other Vise-Grip pliers, making it more difficult to open the pliers when they have been clamped heavily.Finish is chrome plated steel.
6LC is cast into the plier jaw. VISE GRIP is stamped into one handle, the TOOLBOX logo into the other.
