They help a bunch...nice to hold an object with both hands while looking at it..
Great pin pointer from Garrett and Metal Detecting Stuff is my #1 source for products. Excellent service
Tamiya 74166 Non-Scratch Long Nose Pliers II use plastic jaw inserts to help protect the surfaces being gripped. This lighter, more compact design replaces item 74065.
Replacement jaw grips are available separately as Tamiya item 74167.
Carbon-steel jaws and easy-grip handles suit work on delicate R/C components, including damper shafts and ball connectors. The pliers can also be used with aluminum wire.
