Manual pliers for metal cord clips: flexibility in print finishing
Wherever table presses are too cumbersome or small to medium print runs need to be produced flexibly, our pliers for metal cord clips really come into their own. In the professional assembly of elastic-band folders, menu cards or archive boxes, a tear-resistant connection between the elastic material and the metal split pin is crucial. Our pliers are precisely matched to the geometries of our split pins to guarantee optimal load distribution and maximum pull-out strength.
Two specialist pliers for every split pin size
To achieve perfect results without damaging the material, we offer specialist pliers for different applications:
- Plier for Metal Cord Clips for 125 S & 125 SR: The all-rounder for our best-selling standard splints in nickel-plated (VN) or brass-plated (VM) versions. Ideal for classic round rubber cords and PP-Cords.
- Plier for Metal Cord Clips for 127 S VN: The reinforced version for our large metal cord clips. It provides the necessary leverage to securely press even thicker metal sleeves around bulky cords or rubber bands.
- Ergonomic handling: Both models are designed to enable fatigue-free working, even during prolonged use.
- Precision-formed jaws: The pressing surfaces prevent the split pin from tilting or slipping during the pressing process.
Applications in bookbinding and POS marketing
These hand tools are indispensable for prototyping, restoration or on-site assembly at the customer’s premises. Manual pressing allows you to maintain control over the pressure at all times, which is particularly advantageous when working with delicate textile cords. Combine the pliers with our high-quality Round Elastics “Made in Germany” to offer your customers durable and functional fastening solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
We strongly recommend using the appropriate pliers for each size. The pressing jaws are precisely calibrated to the radii of the split pins (125 or 127 series) to ensure a secure and visually clean connection.
Thanks to the optimised leverage, the split pins can be securely closed with moderate manual pressure. For large-scale industrial production, however, we recommend our HP Hand Press or a Pneumatic Press.
Yes, our pliers for metal cord clips are extremely robust. An occasional drop of precision engineering oil on the joints ensures long-lasting smooth operation and protects the tool for years to come.
