Description

Here is a design for a light duties set of pliers where electrical isolation is most important. The pliers are intending for holding wire or parts. Common pliers squeezing or crushing tasks are unsuitable for these pliers.

 

The pliers can be made from most plastic filaments, though Carbon Fibre based filament will improve the pliers rigidity. Choosing Poly Carbonate Filament will increase the pliers strength even further, combine the two properties of Carbon Fibre and Poly Carbonate will take the plier's robustness to the next level.

 

Inspired by pliers design ...

My print is made with Bambu Lab PLA-CF Black filament, with 0.2mm layer height and 15% infill on a Bambu Lab X1 Carbon printer. Print supports required. I used a brim, as well, to prevent the pliers point from lifting off the heat bed.

 

I hope that you can find this print useful, too.

 

Remember to leave me some feedback or even a tip to keep me enthused to make more of these drawings.

nicely engineered. perfect to replace my kids toy paper that broke. don’t over squeeze these as the weak spot appears to be the handles where they pivot, but that’s to be expected.

Strength Issue:Beautiful, yet impractical; nothing can be grasped

Thanks for sharing your experience. What I have successfully tried is to heat soften the plier tips with a very hot water bath (tips only) and gently shape them. A hot air gun or hair dryer can, with care also be used.
