Overview
The TEKTON 37123 is a hand plier built with an alloy steel body and vinyl grip handles, weighing 10.56 ounces. TEKTON positions its hand tools for shop and garage use with an emphasis on build durability.
Alloy steel gives the jaws strength for repeated gripping and twisting tasks, while the vinyl coating improves handle grip and comfort over bare metal. The listing does not specify jaw type, needle nose, slip joint or groove joint, or overall length, so buyers looking for a specific plier style should confirm from product photos.
