pliers have already passed the
practical test in harsh everyday work.
Whia's leading know-how is behind every
single detail.
Innovation down to the
smallest detail.
Light and precise
The rugged pliers jaws made of
ballbearing steel are produced with the
innovative metal injection moulding
process (MIM). That makes them lighter
and more rugged than cast or forged steel
parts.
A pair of Inomic
®
pliers is up to 20
percent lighter than conventional tools.
Corrosion and maintenance-free
A complete zinc-nickel coating, a develop-
ment from the automotive industry, gives
the pliers jaws permanent, all-round
corrosion resistantance. Hybrid high-tech
produces the joint: Special plastic with
better sliding properties than steel is cast
completely free of play with the plier jaws.
Impact resistant and safe
The ergonomically formed, impact
resistant body of the tool is made of
glass-fibre reinforced plastic, which is
low-friction in the sliding area of the
movable blade and has a soft plastic
coating (thermoplastic elastomer) in the
pressure zone for the ball of the hand.
The opening spring supports controlled,
careful gripping. The catch at the back of
the pliers locks the pliers for transport.
So much safety in a single hand.
MIM
Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) is a
revolutionary moulding process for
manufacturing complexly formed metal
miniature parts with outstanding features
with regard to stability and surface finish.
