The number of different Plires grew together with the invention of the differentobjects for which they were used: horse shoes, fasteners, wire, pipes, electrical and electronic components. Because of themultitude of possible objects and operations, the variety of lPiers today probably exceeds all other types of hand tools(screwdrivers are always for screws, saws for sawing, hammers always for striking, etc.) Lock jaw Pliars Design The basic design has changed little since its origins, with the pair of handles, the pivot (often formed by arivet), and the head section with the gripping jaws or cutting edges forming the three elements. In distinction to pair of scissors or shears the plier's jawsalways meet each other at one point. In technical terms, are an instrument that converts a power grip, the curling of the fingers into the palm of the hand,into a precision grip, which as the name suggests directs the power of the hand's grip in a precise fashion.
