Overview
DEWALT's DWHT70277 plier weighs just 0.25 pounds and uses an alloy steel handle, built for quick one-handed work rather than sustained heavy leverage.
At a quarter pound, this sits toward the lighter end of DEWALT's plier lineup, and the alloy steel construction favors durability over the cushioned grips found on heavier models. The limited attribute data available does not specify jaw type or length.
