Use a Vise or Clamp: If the pliers are particularly tight, secure them in a vise or clamp to prevent them from moving as you loosen them. Avoid Excessive Force: Never use excessive force when loosening pliers, as this can damage the tool or cause injury. What should I do if the stripped fiber always breaks?main reason is that the fiberglass mouth is too tight. Is the pivot point loose? Is there excessive play in the jaws? Are the screws themselves stripped or damaged? A careful visual inspection, often aided by magnification, can reveal subtle signs of. This weekend I decided to pull off the Wave-with-Rebar-pliers (and vice versa) mod. I've oiled them but they only stubbornly open or close. Pliers won't open: Ensure the release lever. You can go to Bezos place or Grainger (in the US) and get a set of strippers for the buffer tube and see if they have some Miller pliers for stripping the coating off of the actual fiber.
