12" Smooth Jaw Pliers
48-22-6552
Product Description
The Milwaukee 48-22-6552 is a 12-inch smooth jaw tongue-and-groove plier designed for finish work where protecting surfaces is critical.
It features smooth, non-serrated jaws that grip firmly without scratching or damaging chrome, brass, or polished finishes, making it ideal for visible plumbing fixtures and trim work.
With a larger 12" size, it offers greater leverage and capacity (≈2.25–2.5") compared to the 10" version, allowing it to handle bigger fittings and tougher adjustments.
The pliers are built with forged steel construction, machined precision jaws, and a rust-resistant coating, ensuring durability in demanding jobsite environments.
It also includes a reaming head for pipe prep and ergonomic dipped grips for comfort during extended use.
