JAR66_B2 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Where can I get Wire Twisting Pliers? Am having trouble trying to locate a set over here and my only other option seems to be to ship some over from the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAR66_B2 Posted May 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Very expensive. http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/tools.asp?Group_ID=770 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not that bothered with snap on. I've got a ratchet driver of theirs which is good. They bought a Swedish Company called Bahco a few years ago which I've used since I was an apprentice. Quality is just as good but you don't pay the price. They have the pliers in their UK calatogue but the North American one doesn't show them Just made me wonder if there was another method to doing Lock Wire in North America. Excuse my ignorance Cheers guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skudkid Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 I recently retired from Air Canada and have decided not to work any more. I have a pair of the larger twisters in very good condition (as I was a lead they didn’t get used much) you can have them for $25. I live in YEG so if you like I’ll meet you for coffee with the wire twisters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not out there till the 24th but if you still have them by then, then I might take you up on the offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
212wrench Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 I don't buy a lot of stuff from snapon because it is to expensive however i would recommend their twisters as i am on my 3rd pair in 15 years and it has only cost me the original $110. replaced twice on warranty.
