Abstract
A locking pliers comprises a fixed assembly comprising a first handle and a first jaw. A second jaw is movable relative to the first jaw. A second handle moves relative to the first handle to move the second jaw. A toggle-link locking mechanism locks the second jaw in the closed, locked position. An adjusting screw is provided for adjusting the geometry of the locking mechanism to thereby adjust the jaw spacing and the force exerted by the jaws is provided. The adjusting screw includes a wheel that can be rotated by running the wheel along an object. In another embodiment the adjusting screw includes a sleeve that extends partially over the fixed assembly such that it can be manipulated by the same hand that holds the locking pliers.
