Construction
Channellock pliers and hand tools are forged and heat-treated for daily-use service life. The brand's signature tongue-and-groove plier mechanism (the "channel-lock") is the design that gave the company its name and remains the dominant configuration for adjustable plumbing-and-utility pliers across the trade.
