The present invention discloses a ratchet clamp comprising a first clamping arm and a second clamping arm which are pivotally connected with each other via a connecting shaft so as to be opened and closed relative to each other, a ratchet assembly, a swing assembly and a control assembly provided between the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm; the ratchet toothed assembly has a plurality of first ratchet teeth and a plurality of second ratchet teeth which are juxtaposed and are misaligned with each other; the swing assembly and the ratchet toothed assembly are moved away from or towards each other with the connecting shaft as the axial center of rotation; a latch member of the control assembly has at least a first pawl and at least a second pawl, a wrench member of the control assembly is used for toggling the latch member to be moved, the first pawls and the second pawls are respectively engaged with the corresponding first ratchet teeth and second ratchet teeth when the latch member is moved to an engaged position, and the first pawls and the second pawls are respectively moved away from the corresponding first ratchet teeth and the second ratchet teeth when the latch member is moved to a released position. With the misaligned ratchet tooth design, the tooth profile may not be reduced, thereby increasing the structural strength, so that the overall clamping force is greatly enhanced.

A pliers tool (01) includes a hosting pliers that attaches to and manipulates a separate, principal use pliers (02). The hosting pliers having a first retainer (45a) connected to a ply assembly. The first retainer (45a) being configured to retain a handle of the principal use pliers (02) to a ply assembly of the hosting pliers/pliers tool (01).

A locking pliers preferably includes a fixed jaw, a moveable jaw, a fixed handle, a toggle link, a power link and a jaw link. The fixed jaw is retained in one end of the fixed handle and the moveable jaw is pivotally retained in the one end thereof. An adjustment screw is retained in an opposing end of the fixed handle and engages a first end of the toggle link. A first end of the jaw link is pivotally engaged with a second end of the toggle link. A second end of the jaw link is pivotally engaged with the moveable jaw. One end of a moveable handle is pivotally engaged with a middle of the jaw link. One end of the power link is pivotally engaged with the moveable handle and an opposing end is pivotally engaged with the second end of the toggle link.

A hand tool (1) comprising a first handle (2) and a second handle (3), which are pivotally arranged with respect to each other, a first jaw (4) that is fixed to said first handle (2), the first jaw (4) comprising a first crimp portion (6), and a second jaw (5) comprising a second crimp portion (7), wherein the first and second crimp portions (6,7) are arranged to be moved towards each other by actuation of the first and a second handle (2,3), so as to close a crimp opening (8) formed between said first and second crimp portions (6,7). The second jaw (5) is pivotally arranged with respect to the first handle (2) around a first pivot point (10), and with respect to the second handle (3) around a second pivot point (11) arranged at an upper end of said second handle (3), wherein the first handle (2) comprises a first resilient portion (12) between the first crimp portion (6) and the first pivot point (10), allowing the first crimp portion (6) to flex with respect to the first pivot point (10).

Various embodiments of pliers and pipe wrenches are provided. Wire cutters enable a finger pivot hole to enhance the grasp of the wire cutters while rotating the tool and/or stripping wire. Pipe wrenches include different configurations of teeth to improve durability and grip on a workpiece. Pliers are provided with axial teeth to enhance gripping a workpiece in different directions. Pliers are provided with selectable mechanical advantages so that a user may select the mechanical advantage desirable for a particular application.

A pinch-off pliers possessing a canted orientation along the length. The pinch-off pliers has a first clamping unit, a second clamping unit, and an axial mechanism. The pinch-off pliers positioned along a first axis and a second axis, where the first axis is not parallel to the second axis. An intersection of the first axis and the second axis along the length of the pinch-off pliers creates a canting angle theta in the pinch-off pliers at the intersection. An intersection of a first plane and a third plane creates a second canting angle omega when having the pinch-off pliers positioned along the first axis and an intersecting fourth axis.
