{"product_id":"otto-frei-half-round-flat-forming-pliers-5-1-8-naked-mirror-polish-german","title":"Otto Frei Half-Round\/ Flat 5-1\/8\" Fully Polished \"Naked\" Forming Pliers","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese fully polished 5-1\/8\" half-round\/flat forming pliers feature one half-round jaw and one flat jaw, designed for forming rings and gently curving metal and other materials. Known as \u003cstrong\u003e\"Naked\" pliers\u003c\/strong\u003e, they are made without leaf springs or vinyl grips — a configuration originally requested by the Revere Academy. Because the handles are left plain and fully exposed, they require more hand polishing than spring-and-grip models, which accounts for their slightly higher price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOtto Frei mirror-polished pliers are handmade in a small, family-owned factory in Germany, where the craft of producing high-quality jeweler's tools has been passed down through generations. The signature mirror polish and meticulous construction distinguish these pliers from similarly priced alternatives. Each pair is perfectly balanced, precisely formed at the tips, and finished to the highest standard of fit and finish available. These are the same pliers made in the same factory as the Revere pliers — the only difference is the handle treatment: Otto Frei Naked pliers have plain handles, while Revere pliers feature scalloped dental-style handles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll Otto Frei German-made pliers are constructed from tough carbon steel, which outlasts stainless steel in durability. Note that carbon steel is susceptible to rust if exposed to moisture or the elements — store and protect your pliers when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne half-round jaw and one flat jaw for forming rings and curved shapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"Naked\" design — no leaf springs and no vinyl or rubber grips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete mirror polish on all surfaces, including handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade in a small family-owned factory in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSame factory and construction as Revere Academy pliers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfectly balanced with precisely formed and polished tips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlain handles (versus scalloped dental-style handles on Revere version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction for superior long-term durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5-1\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eJaw Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eJaw Style\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHalf-round \/ Flat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull mirror polish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone (springless \/ \"Naked\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrip Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone (no vinyl or rubber grips)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGermany\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNotes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon steel will rust if exposed to moisture — store pliers in a protected environment when not in use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNaked pliers require more hand polishing than spring-and-grip models due to fully exposed handles, which is reflected in their price.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Otto Frei","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43584272335062,"sku":"146.114P","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9832\/0342\/files\/otto-frei-half-round-flat-5-18-fully-polished-naked-forming-pliers-otto-frei-1.jpg?v=1719956301","url":"https:\/\/www.ottofrei.com\/products\/otto-frei-half-round-flat-forming-pliers-5-1-8-naked-mirror-polish-german","provider":"Otto Frei","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
