Do the pliers open far enough to work with objects around 1 inch diameter?

Hello, It opens to larger than one inch diameter and is surprisingly grippy with its pliers.

Yes. The rounded portion of the pliers open wide enough to hold a U. S. quarter with room to spare. U. S. quarter = .955 inches.Image for reference: http://imgur.com/qDrR4gu

Sorry, my english is not very good.An 1 inch diameter object will enter into the jaws, but it won't be grabbed too well secured and also the handle side will be too wide open to manage it properly with one hand, unless you have big hands.When open wide, the distance between both jaws tips is 40mm.The internal side of the jaws is 35mm long, but in the innermost section 5mm is taken by the cutting edges.

This tool is made to work on oil filters that are about 3 to 6 inches in diameter. I think this tool is too large to grab onto something that is only 1.5 inches in diameter.

I've gone through 2 myself (lost one) and given 2 as gifts to friends, never had any trouble opening or closing the pliers... found them to be very slightly stiffer when new, but not objectionably so...

Yes within 2-3 inches depending on size of ring. Thanks, Big Boys Hobbies Metal Detectors.

They will work on the opening, but they are too small to reach very far inside...

I think they would be small enough, at least on my paper shredder, but i dont know if they'd have enough force to hold on and pull, needle nose pliers might be better?

Yes. Each size opening has 2 sizes to it, and the handles open enough to accomodate 1/4 to 1/2 inch either way. I love this opener!

When fully opened it measured 1". When closed it is 1/4". So, perhaps if the item you are grabbing is small enough, it would work. I hope this helps!

Worked fine for me for soft 1-2" ones (pine, etc), haven't tried anything larger.

No...if you look close, there will be an area for a very small tool to pry open, or put pressure on and unscrew. Hope this helps

You can open the vise 7" and still have good control with what you are working with. I have not needed to use the vise opened that wide, but times that I have used the vise it has done everything I wanted it to do. I used it to hold the wooden model ship I am building, also for some small repairs around the house.

No, I don't believe so. They have a disappointing jaw spread and have proven almost useless for me. I don't think they could get through the 1" openings, nor get any purchase on something 1/2" in diameter.

inside diameter of the hook is about 1-5/16. They are also just flexible enough to open it a little farther if needed.

I would say no more than 3/4 to an inch ... I use it for stuff that small and it works great

Yes, you can easily bend them, especially if you use wide-jawed pliers. They will not break.

They open just over 2 inches. They should work just fine for your application. Hope this helps.

absolutely not. 2 in. is the smallest it will take. any mfg as long as they are plastic collated round head nails 21 DEGREE
