Overview

The TEKTON PMN01001 is a lightweight plier at 3.36 ounces with vinyl dipped handles for grip. Its small size and low weight point to precision or detail work rather than heavy gripping tasks.

At just over three ounces, this plier is built light, which usually means a smaller jaw meant for fine or detail tasks rather than pulling heavy material. TEKTON does not list jaw length or type in the available specs, so confirm the exact style from the listing photos if a specific jaw shape is needed.
