Hazardous-environment pliers
The Ampco P-326 long-nose plier is built for professionals who handle chemicals, flammable vapours or explosive dust. Its nickel-aluminium bronze alloy contains no ferrous metals, so the tool will not spark or become magnetic during use. Maintenance crews, refinery operators and laboratory technicians rely on it when ordinary steel pliers would create an ignition risk.
Non-sparking jaw and dipped handle
Smooth jaws 1 3/8 in. long and 11/16 in. wide grip wire, small fasteners and tubing without marring surfaces. The straight 0-degree bend keeps the tip in line with the handles for precise reach in tight assemblies. A blue dipped handle provides insulation and a secure, comfortable grip during extended work sessions.
Seven-inch overall length with fine tip
At 7 in. overall the plier fits easily into a tool belt or chest pocket while still delivering enough leverage for light cutting tasks. The 1/8 in. tip width allows access to confined terminals and narrow gaps where larger jaws cannot reach. It is not suited for heavy-gauge wire, large-diameter pipe or high-torque fastening that would exceed the jaw capacity.

Questions about this item
How long can the 7 in pliers run before the non-sparking nickel aluminum bronze jaws overheat under continuous cutting?
The non-sparking nickel aluminum bronze construction does not generate heat during hand-operated use, so there is no thermal limit during sustained cutting tasks.
What noise or vibration level should I expect from the dipped handles during all-day use?
The blue dipped handles absorb hand vibration and produce no mechanical noise since the pliers are manually operated without motors or moving parts beyond the pivot.
Do I need any other tools or accessories to make the 1 3/8 in jaw length functional for chemical work?
No additional tools are required; the pliers are ready to use immediately for gripping and cutting in hazardous chemical environments.
