Xcelite Pro Series ESD round nose pliers 114.3 mm, smooth tapered jaws - Weller RN54N

Loops and bends in fine wire must not nick the conductor. The smooth jaws of these round nose pliers taper evenly across 22.2 mm of head length and leave no score marks. At 114.3 mm overall length and 11.1 mm head width the tool stays controllable inside densely populated assemblies, and the manufacturer lists it as ESD safe.

Benefits in use

• Smooth tapered jaws form wire loops without scoring the conductor.
• Head length of 22.2 mm at 11.1 mm width reaches leads between closely spaced components.
• Head thickness of 7.1 mm keeps the jaws true when bending spring wire.
• ESD safe design per the property table, so the tool may stay inside an EPA area.
• Overall length of 114.3 mm gives short lever travel for controlled bending.
• Padded handles reduce hand load during long bending runs.

Applications

The pliers belong on assembly and repair benches in electronics manufacturing, in the prototype shop and in precision mechanics. Typical work includes loops on component leads, forming hook-up wire and adjusting spring contacts.
