"Safety Wire" Pliers
2007-06-05 15:32:57 · answer #1 · answered by Anonymous · 0⤊ 0⤋
What Mikld said, "safety wire pliers", makes quick work of installing safety wire, which is usually used to keep specially drilled nuts and bolts from turning loose.
Though I was taught that they are not approved for aircraft use, so its a hotrod thing. I recon they crush the wire slightly, we had to do all aircraft bolts by hand.

the safety wire locking pliers are not really used for nuts and bolts. its only used to weave the safety wire to lock a nut to a bolt.

Probably on Valentine's Day when my hubby gave me candy, flowers and a kiss. *GG Has been under the weather since then and thus has had no serious kissy-kissy action in a while because operations make you grumpy!* ;) Thank you for asking. Hopes it's been better than that for you! ♥
