April 14, 2026

CHANNELLOCK American-made pliers and tool sets are engineered for tradespeople who demand reliability on every job.

V-jaw pliers offer superior contact on pipes, tubing, and round stock thanks to their unique geometry. With laser-hardened teeth, PERMALOCK fasteners, and a slip-resistant undercut tongue-and-groove design, these pliers deliver extreme holding power.

For heavy-duty cutting, CHANNELLOCK lineman’s pliers feature Xtreme Leverage Technology (XLT), which places the rivet closer to the cutting edge for dramatically reduced cutting effort. Precision-machined knife-and-anvil edges ensure perfect mating and long-term cutting efficiency.

New locking pliers offer curved-jaw and long-nose variants designed for fast, one-handed operation. The extended-release lever prevents pinch points while the epoxy-resin coating boosts rust resistance—ideal for metalworking, automotive, and fabrication environments.

Additionally, CHANNELLOCK end cutting pliers are engineered with XLT technology and laser-treated cutting edges for cleaner, stronger cuts through nails, wire, and fasteners. New cable cutting pliers provide exceptional shearing force, easily handling up to 4/0 aluminum and 2/0 copper cable—making them indispensable for electricians and automotive technicians. Long reach pliers deliver extended access in tight or recessed workspaces with precision gripping and cutting performance. Snap ring pliers and multiple technician’s tool sets are also available, offering turnkey tool assortments with professional-grade versatility.

New CHANNELLOCK pliers start at $15.50 (412),  new tool sets start at $125.00 (GS-25)
