This tool includes extra plastic jaws for extended use, making it a must-have for professionals who demand flawless results without damaging delicate materials.

## Description

The IPS PH-165 pliers are a slip-joint plier with replaceable non-marring soft touch plastic pads. These pliers feature soft grip vinyl handles and have an integrated wire cutter. The Igarashi Pliers Co, commonly known as IPS, manufacturers a complete line of pliers from traditional types to the largest variety of non-marring plastic lined pliers available. IPS products are manufactured in Japan and are very good quality.

Review: Came with red handles, but the quality exceeded my expectations. - Close to no wobble with the pliers. Amazing. I've ordered USA-made Channellocks with a ton of quality issues ranging from pre-rust on the rivet and a ton of play with the slip-joint mechanism. None of that is present here with the Japanese-made tooling standards. The pliers came with an extra set of jaws and screws to fasten them. Red handles are nice, and arguably better than the clear ones advertised here, as they won't smudge or get noticeably dirty over time as quickly as white handles typically do. The jaws have a v-groove on the tip, allowing for precision work to be done. It makes holding thin metals and plastics very easy, and there's no worry that you will damage your workpiece. This makes the tool perfect for any type of eyeglass repair work, as well as jewelry-making. Again, the PH-165 exceeded my already high expectations. The tool could be worth 10 dollars more than the asking price and I'd still likely buy it. I'm glad IPS kept manufacturing and toolmaking to Japan, unlike Tsunoda who offshores their plastic-jaw tools to Thailand. Yet another reason to take a deeper look into IPS's offerings. You can also buy the replacement jaws, which are also made in Japan by IPS themselves, for very cheap. I recommend doing so, as these jaws are not designed to last and are meant to be a consumable item per job. Once the plastic jaws lose their edge, it's not good to continue using them - you may damage your work.
Review: Great No-Marring Pliers - I only use these occasionally, but they are a valuable tool for not marring what I clamp on. Eventually I'm going to buy their larger size pilers. Even though I don't have a current use for them, just because these are quality pliers and someday I'll need them. The extra set of plastic jaws they come with are a nice touch.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can anyone tell me how long the ips 165 softjaw pliers are?  i need to work in a very small space.**
A: 6-3/4" tip to handle end. From the center of the pivot pin to the tip it's 1-11/16" 1/2" wide. A great set of pliers! But be careful the nylon softjaws are easily damaged with an overly aggressive squeeze. Hope it helps!

**Q: Where can you get the replacement jaws?**
A: Frankstools has them, 2 pair for $4, 3.50 s/h

**Q: Is the jaw hard plastic or soft rubber?**
A: It's a hard plastic not a soft rubber.

**Q: is there replacement resin pads? if so where?**
A: The pads are not resin, but hard plastic

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great No-Marring Pliers

I only use these occasionally, but they are a valuable tool for not marring what I clamp on. Eventually I'm going to buy their larger size pilers. Even though I don't have a current use for them, just because these are quality pliers and someday I'll need them. The extra set of plastic jaws they come with are a nice touch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for difficult work on softer metals
*by A***E on October 15, 2024*

I needed to do some work on brass and bronze components in an antique. Using steel pliers was not an option because they would damage the softer metal. These did the job perfectly. I was able to get a good grip and apply a lot of force. The plastic grip pieces were slightly damaged due to some sharp edges on the brass, which is fine with me. The jaws are meant to be sacrificial to protect what you're working on. These come with extra plastic jaw pieces, which is a nice feature. The plastic might not grip very smooth surface. For anything else, this is an excellent tool.
