How to Choose Pliers for Jewelry Making?

Pliers are essential tools for jewelry making because they can perform various functions. Since they come in different sizes, including miniature and heavyweights, you must understand the function of each type of plier. If you have a look atImage https://gettr.com/user/craftsselection, you will be able to learn different functions for each type of pliers. In addition to understanding the functions of each plier, you must ensure each tool fits your hands and your job efficiently. The following is a guide on how to choose pliers for your jewelry making.

Match Pliers with the Right Work

Side-cutting pliers are some of the best all-around cutters characterized by sharp jaws. They can cut through all jewelry wire thickness, threads, and metal sheets. Do not use these pliers to cut memory wires because the blades can become damaged.

Use the round nose pliers for creating curves, circles, and loops. They are some of the essential pliers you need. They come with round jaws, and can be used to hold, shape, and bend jewelry wires. They are very useful in creating jewelry like earrings and adding beads to bracelets. The jaws on these pliers are smooth.

A flat nose should be used for the opening and closing of jump rings and for crimping heads. These pliers can be used in gripping wires and can also be used in straightening those unwanted bends in wires.  

The crimping pliers must be used for flattening and crushing purposes. For this reason, you can use them to crush your jewelry metal crimp beads into the wires. These pliers do provide professional results. Bent nose pliers are characterized by a flat inner region with a 45-degree angle at the nose and are best used for wire wrapping or putting wire ends into beads.

Pay Attention to the Plier Handles

PVC and foam-grip handles are used in jewelry plier designs, and they come with their unique benefits and demerits. PVC handles for pliers, for instance, are more rigid and can last longer than softer handles. Unfortunately, PVC handles may not offer as much comfort as soft handles for long-term use. Since a softer handle will create less fatigue, you may begin with that as a beginner and gradually migrate to the PVC. Pay attention to the ergonomics of the handle when making your final choice. 

Plier Jaw Length

Remember that pliers’ jaw length will determine how much force can be applied. The shorter plier jaws tend to be stronger and better for producing more refined results. It will be better to go for the pliers with shorter jaws and smoother inner portions because serrated parts can damage your jewelry works. 

Other Factors to Consider

The material used in making pliers should be considered. In most cases, you will find them in hardened, tempered steel, or regular stainless steel. Stainless steel can resist rust but is less durable. Hardened tempered steel is quite durable, but they have higher risks of rust. A beginner will do much better with regular stainless steel.
