Description: |
The patented features are the pivoted jaw, with the pivot hole(s) located eccentrically, the stop on the handle, and the spring which serves the dual purpose of holding the jaw on the pivot pin, and to draw the jaw into gripping position.
A circular pivoted jaw with multiple pivot holes provides several successive gripping areas to compensate for wear. |
