Gripping and extracting:

The main purpose of carpenter's pincers is to pull out nails from wood without damaging the surface. The broad, rounded head ensures the pincer won't dig into the wood. This is especially useful for tasks such as repairing windows and doors, removing skirting boards and renovating furniture.

The strong jaws of carpenter's pincers also make them ideal for pulling out clevis pins - a type of flexible metal fastener used to link moving parts.

Carpenter's pincers are frequently used for dismantling work in vehicle body workshops and salvage yards.

Their tough jaws make them ideal for gripping and removing all sorts of components, ranging from pieces of bodywork to engine parts and seat covers.

Cutting:

Although carpenter's pincers are primarily designed for gripping, you can also use them to cut through thin nails, wire or staples. Sometimes this may be necessary if you can't pull a nail out completely, so have to cut it flush with the surface. Farrier's and potter's pincers are usually best for cutting, as they tend to have sharper jaws.
