Glad they updated these- the old snap on locking pliers were junk

I finger F’d the new small locking pliers on the truck yesterday as well. They felt very nice in the hand. Beefy and tight.
I have a bunch of the old Dewitt USA pliers but may still pick up the Snap Ons. Just because 😂

[philchristmas]

I'm still buying some of the malco's. A couple of people still have them in stock. I have more than I will ever use and I've never really used vice grips very much. But I can't stop buying USA made tools.

The locking pliers are not the "exact same brand." Malco bought the vise grip factory when they (vise grip) moved overseas, the current Snap On locking pliers are made by Malco. You can purchase the same pliers from malco branded "Eagle Grip usa." They have also improved upon the original design by putting the extra pin on the top handle by the jaw to keep the jaws in alignment under large amounts of force.

Those locking extensions are actually wobble not wobble plus, aren’t they? I don’t think they came out with wobble plus ones yet (at least that’s what my Snap On dealer thought; he had those on promo this week).

Maybe because the locking pin doesn’t allow for them to be pushed down to act like a regular extension?

After 12 long years, (real) locking pliers are FINALLY back in the USA! Thanks for the first look, I'm stoked with ya man!

[skipwilson]

Made in USA! Love it. Always very educational video. Thanks

[lastbesttool]

Thanks CP. Now I’ve got a pair of those Snap On locking pliers on the way along with the pistol grip Snap On screw extraction pliers.

Irwin used to manufacture Snapon vice grips but Irwin are now owned by Stanley BD.

I got to handle the new pliers on the truck today. I was impressed. They seemed really nice. Glad they are made back in the USA where they belong.

As far as the weight difference it could something as simple as they are using a more modern alloy. Stronger and lighter is what the market usually wants.

I'm aware my brain was saying multimeter and my mouth kept saying scanner lol I was excited fellers!! Lol links for all my tools are in the description if your interested in price and the part numbers as well!!

I broke a pair of Vise-Grips, they lasted my abuse for 20 years. While I wait for warranty I Decided to upgrade to the new version like the new Mac ones you bought, good stuff.

[johnnyramirez]

I just took a look at both the D10 and the pliers

[jpbiscaro]

Will will other models of vise grips be made in the USA?

[asmautollc]

Here’s to Snap On for giving real vice grips a platform to get going again!

[BLAKEDILLONRACINGDEVELOPMENT]

Sweet Baby Jesus! I imagine Dale Earnhardt Sr would use these😍

[doctordiesel]

[GrimmsAutoService]
