Tool of the Week for June 9, 2014
This week’s Featured Tool is the Dual Size Round Nose Plier: G2-719
We’ve talked a little bit about these pliers before, but today I thought we would feature them for you. I know that you’ve used regular round nose pliers, but the Dual Size Round Nose Pliers are very different and will give you new options when working with your wire.
I’ve put a few details below so that you can get an idea of how awesome they are and how much fun you can have using them. Take a look!
- These unique Dual Sized Round Nose Pliers feature two different size barrels for ultimate creativity.
- The overall length is over 6 inches (155mm).
- The extra long jaws of these pliers measure over 40 mm in length.
- Each barrel is unique due to it’s graduating size.
- The small round nose barrel goes from 5mm at the base to 2mm at the tip and the large round nose barrel from 9mm at the base to 4mm at the tip.
- With a special grip black handle, these dual sized round nose pliers makes shaping wire a breeze!
Think of all the fantastic projects you can make with these dual size round nose pliers… The possibilities are endless!
You can purchase just the Dual Size Round Nose Pliers by themselves, or as part of our Alex Simkin Ear Cuff DVD set.
If you’re just getting started in the world of jewelry or, if you are a seasoned pro, these pliers are perfect for many projects, and I know you will love using them!

I love my duel nose pliers.. I have had mine for around 20 years.. Mine on one side is just about a half of a millimeter and the other side is one millimeter on the very tips. The barrel that the tip is just about a half Of a millimeter, the end of the barrel near the handles is 4mm. The tip that is 1mm, at the end of that barrel is 3mm.
At one time I used to hear about the duel sized barrels and tips, but not so much lately.. It’s there still round nose pliers out there today with the same size as mine? I love the tiny sized tips.
