The IRWIN VISE-GRIP 11-Inch Welding Pliers with Fast Release and Swivel Pads have become an essential tool in my workshop. The build quality is excellent—made from durable, high-grade steel that provides a strong grip without flexing under pressure.The fast release mechanism works smoothly and makes one-handed operation a breeze, saving me time and effort during welding and fabrication projects. The swivel pads are a great feature, allowing for even pressure distribution and preventing damage to delicate materials while still holding everything firmly in place.I’ve used these pliers for a variety of tasks, from clamping metal sheets for welding to holding odd-shaped workpieces securely, and they have performed flawlessly every time. The ergonomic design also makes them comfortable to use for extended periods without hand fatigue.Overall, this is a well-designed, sturdy, and reliable tool that I would highly recommend to both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. IRWIN has once again delivered a top-quality product that’s worth every penny!

Interesting new design I like it worth 10 bucks extra gives you a little better grip when you’re adjusting the channel lock. I think it’s worth the 10 bucks. I think you’ll like it. I recommend.

Of course it is 5 Stars! These large C-clamps are the best. Buy once, you'll have them for life. Easy to use, dependable, and large opening for multiple uses. The tip pads, are about an inch or so in size, and also pivot to match the surface angle.

La apertura de 4 pulgadas es excelente. Tiene buena presión de agarre. El metodo de liberación es muy bueno a una sola mano. No me gustó que al abrirlo se desarma y puede lastimar las manos. DarÃa 5 estrellas de no ser por el pin que se sale al liberarlo.

I’ve got a bunch of these they totally come in handy and they’re strong. You can’t beat by Grips or Irwin what they’re called now.

Noted the adjusting screw was a bit hard to turn in the handle, but screw has a standard thread IIRC 1/4x20, so ran a tap through the handle female threads on several of these and every thing works fine since. No other complaints or problems and using these regularly in my welding class.

I am a tool guy, I love to have and use my tools. Due to this I also prefer to have and use ones that I know will last. I have a few off brand pairs of vise grip style locking pliers and honestly none of them compare to the name brand Vice Grips. This is a large nice set that works very well for holding larger pieces together.This is a large pair. The Top/Bottom of the C-clamp portion is about 3-1/2" wide. The top to bottom measurement of the C-clamp is 5-1/4" when closed and the mouth opens up to clamp down on something as large as 4" across. I use this pair when holding 1x2 pieces or steel and need to have a nice firm grip. The gripping tips have a swivel mechanism that works nicely to give more grip when in use by matching the angle of whatever you are clamping.When Irwin bought the Vise Grip brand I was worried they might mess with them, that has not happened, these are just as solid and reliable as my pre-Irwin brand Vise-Grips. About the only difference is the additional Irwin logo on them now.These can get hot enough to actually turn a little blue when I weld really close to where they are clamping, that's how hot they get! These are a very thick metal, very solid and secure and it's immediately apparent when you hold them. Compared to my others (including Craftsman) these are by far the best.5 stars, these are solid, reliable and do last a lifetime. I've had my oldest set over 30 years now and they are just a dependable as the new ones.

Works well and is strong. A little pricey but is worth it.
