To get any job done right, you need to have the right tools ready. Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or a pro, your tasks may require a variety of different types of pliers.

Types of Plier Sets to Consider

Like screwdriver sets and other tool sets, plier sets come in three basic types:

• Single tool sets: Single tool-type plier sets include one type of pliers in more than one size, giving you the ability to perform precision work and large jobs with equal ease.
• Multiple tool sets: Multiple tool-type plier sets feature two or more different types of pliers, making it possible to execute a wider range of tasks.
• Combination sets: With a combination plier set, you get an assortment of pliers and other hand tools. Combination plier and wrench sets are one of the most popular options.

Choosing a Plier or Wrench Set

One of the most important things to think about when selecting a plier set is the types of pliers or wrenches that you require. There are several types that you may find in standalone plier and combo plier and wrench sets, including:

• Tongue and groove pliers: These pliers feature a sliding jaw that is curved on one side and straight on the other. Thanks to their adjustable designs, tongue and groove pliers can grip many different sizes of pipes and fasteners with ease.
• Locking pliers: Thanks to a locking mechanism, these pliers can remain positioned on an object, freeing your hands to perform other tasks and apply more torque for tough jobs.
• Needle nose pliers: Easy to identify by their slender jaws, long needle nose pliers make it simpler to access tight spaces.
• Slip joint pliers: Jointed at their curved jaws, slip joint pliers can be set to two different widths for accommodating objects of varying size.
• Cutting pliers: Combining long handles with short jaws, cutting pliers can grip and cut through bolts, wires, and other materials with ease.
• Lineman’s pliers: Engineered for electrical applications, these heavy-duty pliers have serrated teeth for cutting wires, and some also have a built-in stripper for added convenience.

What’s more, combo plier wrench sets typically feature adjustable wrenches of different lengths. Check out the product description in each set to find out what types of pliers are featured.
