Pliers, adjustable combination

Combination pliers are multi-purpose pliers, combining gripping jaws with wire cutters. They can be used for gripping, compressing, bending, twisting, extracting and cutting various materials. They are used in many different industries, as well as by hobbyists and DIYers. These adjustable pliers are designed to be used as a hand-held vice or clamp that locks firmly onto a work piece. Also called plier wrenches, lever-wrench pliers, and by the proprietary name Vice grips, they have a double-lever action.
