Product Description

The Grip-On Axial Grip Type LL is a specialized locking tool designed for high-access clamping in professional shop environments. Featuring an extended "L" shaped jaw configuration, this tool provides a unique axial clamping action that allows technicians to apply pressure in a straight line with the tool’s body. This design is specifically engineered for reaching over obstacles or deep into narrow recesses where traditional locking pliers cannot fit.

In the daily workflow of body shops across Canada, the Type LL is essential for panel alignment and welding preparation. It allows for the secure positioning of overlapping flanges and structural components without obstructing the technician’s line of sight or the path of a welding torch. The tool’s slim profile and precise clamping force make it a go-to for complex structural repairs and detailed fabrication work.

Key Features

• Extended Axial Reach: The "L" shaped jaw design enables clamping in deep or narrow areas that are inaccessible to standard locking tools.

• Epoxy Resin Coating: Finished with a specialized coating that is significantly more resistant to welding spatter and corrosion than standard nickel plating.

• One-Handed Release: Features a smooth, no-pinch release lever that allows technicians to engage and disengage the tool with a single hand, increasing efficiency during multi-point fit-ups.

• High-Grade Steel Construction: Manufactured from heat-treated alloy steel to maintain jaw alignment and clamping force under heavy industrial use.

• Axial Clamping Mechanism: Ensures the pressure is applied directly in line with the handles, preventing panel shifting or twisting during the clamping process.

Ideal For

• Collision Repair: Securing door skins, quarter panels, and radiator supports during mock-up and welding.

• Structural Repair: Clamping inner reinforcements and frame components in confined areas.

• Custom Fabrication: Holding workpieces in place where clearance is limited by neighbouring brackets or housings.

Common Questions

How does the axial grip differ from a standard locking plier?

Unlike standard pliers that clamp at an angle, the axial grip applies pressure in a straight line, allowing it to reach through narrow gaps and clamp parallel surfaces more effectively.

Is this tool resistant to welding heat?

Yes, the high-grade steel construction and epoxy resin coating are designed to withstand the heat and spatter common in Canadian collision repair shops during MIG or resistance welding.

Can the clamping pressure be adjusted for thin-gauge aluminum?

The rear adjustment screw allows for fine-tuning the clamping force, ensuring a secure hold on thin automotive panels without leaving deep indentations or compromising the material.
