The Ultimate Handheld Vice: Marksman Professional Locking Pliers
The Marksman Locking Pliers are a specialist hardware tool designed for situations where a standard pair of pliers simply won’t suffice. At ECO Heat Shop, we prioritise tools that facilitate complex repairs. Whether you are dealing with a rounded-off sump plug, holding two pieces of steel for welding, or acting as a temporary handle for a broken lever, these locking pliers provide the mechanical “lock” needed to perform sustainable maintenance on vehicles and machinery.
Constructed from high-grade alloy steel with a classic nickel-plated finish, these pliers are built to resist rust and welding spatter. The curved jaw profile is specifically engineered to wrap around pipes and fasteners, distributing pressure evenly to prevent material deformation while ensuring a rock-solid hold.
Key Features & Professional Benefits
- Classic Guarded Release Trigger: The quick-release lever is designed for fast, one-handed unlocking while protecting against accidental release during high-tension tasks.
- Integrated Wire Cutter: Features a powerful built-in cutter at the base of the jaws, capable of snipping through medium-hard wire and small bolts.
- Micro-Adjustment Screw: The knurled screw at the base of the handle stays in position once set, allowing for repetitive clamping tasks without the need for constant re-adjustment.
- Induction-Hardened Teeth: Precision-milled teeth are angled to “bite” into the workpiece, providing a superior grip on even the most heavily corroded or oily surfaces.
- Trade-Ready Construction: The heavy-duty rivet joints and high-tension spring ensure the tool maintains its clamping integrity under extreme mechanical loads.

Why Source Hand Tools from ECO Heat Shop?

Expert Tip: When using locking pliers on a seized bolt, tighten the adjustment screw until the jaws just touch the fastener, then give the screw another half-turn before locking. This ensures the teeth bite deeply into the metal. For chrome or delicate surfaces, place a piece of copper shim or heavy leather between the jaws and the workpiece to prevent scarring.
