Channellock Inc GL12 Tongue Groove Utility Plier 12.5in

Product Description

The CHANNELLOCK INC GL12 is a 12.5-inch tongue and groove utility plier built for trade professionals who need a reliable gripping tool across a wide range of fastener and fitting shapes. The special jaw design accommodates round, flat, square, and irregular profiles, while the ergonomically designed offset head delivers greater leverage without awkward wrist positioning. Teeth are laser heat treated for a harder bite that lasts longer under repeated use. The plier is manufactured from high-carbon C1080 steel and receives a specialized coating for rust prevention, making it a dependable addition to a plumber's, HVAC technician's, or general tradesperson's kit.

This plier is suited for residential and commercial service work where a single hand tool must handle diverse tasks — tightening and loosening nuts, fittings, pipes, and irregular fasteners. With 6 jaw adjustment positions and a maximum jaw capacity of 2.875 inches, the GL12 covers a broad range of work-piece sizes. It is equally at home on a plumbing rough-in, an HVAC equipment changeout, or a general mechanical service call.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general service tradespeople. Before gripping any fitting or fastener on a pressurized system, confirm the system is fully depressurized and isolated. Select the appropriate jaw adjustment position before applying force to avoid slipping. Avoid using pliers as a substitute for the correct wrench when working on fasteners with defined torque requirements.
