Craig, what are we seeing with these pliers now? So, this is our pliers wrench. Smooth lips here. So it's great for working with nuts, bolts, anything that's square in shape. Thanks to the built-in cam mechanism, for every 1 pound of force I apply to the handle, I get 10 on the jaws. So to show you that when you take on something like this, you're putting all the pressure on the side, so it doesn't round off at the corners. You can lift from the bottom, get a little ratcheting motion. Very popular for all types of aircraft mechanics, for everyone involved. To show the power of 10 to 1, I'll take, for example, a nail right here. So, if you take a nail , just insert it into the tip. So if I give it a good squeeze a few times so you can see, it just flattens out completely and then the sponges are perfectly clean. Uh, we call it our pliers wrench. What is it called? Our pliers, wrench. And he did it with the tip of this nail. Yeah, standard, like, uh, I think it's 16. Wow. From Knipex. Right. Am I right? This is a heavy letter K, Knipex. Knipex. Yes. Steeply. Thank you. Of course.
