I have a 9” reversible plies made by Milbar, I use it all the time. However sometime space is very limited and a pair of smaller ones would work much better. So I ordered the 6”, reversible with rubber retainer for clippings. Love the size. But I used it a few time and the grip of the jaws is not as good. For some reason one wire always slips out when I twist it. So I have to be careful while using it. Don’t have that issue with my 9”. Otherwise I love the functionality and size. I am not sure if there is a way to adjust how much the jaws can clamp.

I bought these to replace the 15yo pair that finally packed it in. They fit perfectly in my tool control foam. They’re great twisters. They’ll twist .032”all day/night long. They’ll work harder to twist .041” So if you use a lot of heavier gauge lockwire, you may want to opt for the 9” twisters. I did notice that my pair will not cut wire when it’s placed all the way in to the pivot. Instead, they just make a pinch mark on the wire. Other than that, they’re an excellent tool for an aircraft mechanic. Would recommend!

Milbar makes the best safety wire pliers. Strong, sturdy and built to last. Recommend for the rigors of daily aircraft maintenance

After a day of light and proper use the pliers would not lock in to place when clamping wire. I have since sent it back and am currently waiting for either repair or replacement. I hope I will not be refunded as these pliers are hard to come by lately.
