Morris Products 420 Tongue and Groove Pliers 9.5 in

Product Description

The MORRIS PRODUCTS 420 is a 9.5-inch tongue and groove plier designed for gripping, turning, and holding tasks in plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical work. Built from high carbon steel with a heat-treated finish for corrosion resistance, it features a straight jaw and an undercut tongue and groove design that resists slipping under load. The PermaLock fastener eliminates pivot-point failure caused by loosening nuts and bolts. A patented reinforcing edge minimizes stress breakage at the joint. Blue plastic grip handles provide comfort during extended use. Licensed electricians, plumbers, and general tradespeople rely on this tool for everyday hand-tool work.

This plier is suited for residential and light commercial applications including pipe work, conduit fittings, fastener removal, and general shop use in the home or garage. With five adjustment positions and a jaw capacity of 1.5 inches, it handles a range of fastener and fitting sizes. The straight jaw type provides positive contact on flat and hex surfaces. It is sold individually and is manufactured in the USA.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance technicians as a hand-held gripping and turning instrument. No power source is required, but always ensure the work area is de-energized or pressure-relieved before applying force to fittings or fasteners. Select the correct jaw adjustment position before applying load to prevent jaw slippage. Inspect the pivot joint periodically and confirm the PermaLock fastener remains secure.
