Those expensive Milwaukee pliers are actually made in Germany. They have the "Solingen" marking on them. Solingen is a famous German steel producing town in the Ruhr valley. They are imported from Germany and sold under the Milwaukee brand in the USA. The "Milwaukee" logo appears to be only printed on them. The 1970s pliers have CRV marked on the handle, that usually means Chrome Vanadium steel, a very strong steel alloy.

When measuring correctly, the nail must always be at the same distance from the axis of the pliers. The small deviation makes the big difference in the measurement. Of course, all nails should have the same diameter and hardness. Only below these processes can one properly condemn the tools. PS: The crush test must also be carried out in the same work step, i.e. the distance between the axis of the tongs and the press cylinder must always be the same during the measurement.
@doublestone1Рік тому
The "US"-brand is clearly indicated as "Solingen". And that's in Germany. The more: to have a precise measurement of the cutting force the center of the nail to the turning point og the pliers AND the distance from that pont to the hydraulic press must be THE SAME in all experiments.

The distance from the hinge to the nail significantly changes the mechanical advantage/leverage of the tool and changes the amount of force required to be applied to the handles in order to cut the nail. The distance should ideally by the same in all comparison testing.

Less the absolute distance but the relative position on the cutting blade. If the design has a mechanical advantage this should also show over just how sharp the blade is. Especially since you can just take a file and sharpen them yourself.

Milwaukee. Is a US brand. but the pliers shown in the video were produced in Solingen, a city in Germany. It even says on the tongs. Its name is the only city in the world to be protected as a trademark. A novelty that Solingen owes to its cutlery industry: more than 600 years of blade and metal craftsmanship characterize the cityscape. So it is not a US pliers. But a Solingen on which Milwaukee printed its name. Nice greetings from Germany. And thank you for liking our tool. I myself like US trucks better than German cars😁.

For this test to be truly equal the press needs to apply pressure the same distance from the pivot point on each tool. Otherwise short handle tools will seemingly get higher numbers due to less torque at the handle. Remember Torque = Force x Distance. Or in this case, Force = Torque / Distance.

Interesting video. As an Australian, I would have to say that, while most of the brands tested are available here, they are not the most common. I suspect that the Chinese offerings are sold here by major hardware and automotive accessories chains under their own brand names. The best known Australian brand is Sidchrome, I have two of their 160mm combination pliers. One from the 1970s with handles dipped in PVC as insulation, one from the 1980s with fancy moulded grips and chrome plating. The earlier model is much thicker and made of harder steel. Unfortunately, many Sidchrome tools are now made in China. I would love to see a comparison with an Australian made Sidchrome, Swedish Bahco and a quality Japanese brand such as Hozan. I would expect the Bahco to be at least as good as Knipex. Unfortunately, I don't have a massive hydraulic press in my garage, so I'll have to be content with speculation.

@rkalle66Рік тому
Milwaukee ... stamped "Solingen". The tool maker town of Germany. Btw. some damage on the cutting edge are resulting of the plier tongues snapping close against each other after cutting the nail. You don't want the snapping counter force down your wrist. 4 mm steel is needing a dedicated heavy wire cutter. The costs of injuring your hand/wrist is higher than buying the proper tool.

Creo más bien que no observaste bien el área transversal de la parte que se vence y rompe. El grosor en esa parte que se corta es muy muy pequeño en comparación a las otras pinzas, sí se llega a notar el grano pero hay que poner mucha atención. Velo en cámara lenta. Es aún más sorprendente ver que una pequeña área transversal soporta lo mismo que otras con mayor área transversal.
@callishandy8133Рік тому
Thank you. What a shame the strength of my hands are limited. Are the milwaukee pliers made in Solingen ? Is that Solingen the knifemaker city in germany or US ? Solingen and google ... a lot (nearly all) german premium tool brands are produced in the area Solingen and Remscheid.

fr the 70s model, use the slot over the plier. It's made for nails or steel wire. I'm sorry to see this option is no more available on modern pliers.
@elicier4123Рік тому
Interesting test. But in my opinion if all the pliers are at different price points, it would be mildly inappropriate to specify which countries they were from. And the fact that you didn't put the nail in the same position for each test just renders the outcome of the tests flat out worthless. Milwaukee one is from Germany as well btw.

Nice discussion here, sometimes in addition about the impact of the position of the press intender on the handle. But if you compare the results of the destroiying test, the question is. What value do we get with a load difference between 282 to 453 kg, a load which nobody can intend with the hand on the grippers. Even by extending the grippers with two tubes of apr. 20 - 25 cm it is not possible to get such load into the pliers. The only reasonable test is the cutting test, but as mentioned, with such a big nail and a load of minimum 120 kg, this is also not realistic because no one can bring up this force with the hand. Such plier cutters are limted to smaler steel wire maybe up to 2 mm and copper wire. Important for the quality is the cutter sharpness and even more the durability by a correct heat treatment.
@Timo-EpisРік тому
There are a couple of people in the world that can generate 120 kg++ of pinching force with 1 hand. I bet if they extend the grippers that they can get something similar to those numbers.

@@smarty265 the dollar goes further in many other countries. you can get better standard of living on a lower budget in China than the US. with the amount of automation throughout the supply chain the human cost is less and less relevant, it's just that China has built massive factory cities with massive economy of scale, many are not easily replicated in other nations which is why so many factories are still in China even with China being antagonized and higher labor cost than the other SE Asian nations. the US used to have factory cities back in the day when they were producing for the world, but they are now a part of the rust belt. not easy to mobilize a work force of hundreds of thousands, build an entire city ecosystem revolved around manufacturing, the bureaucracy alone is difficult for many nations. China has structured itself to reduce red tape for massive mega projects and adapted to it for decades now. way too simple to just say China products suck and cheap because cheap labor, trade would have never established there if better competitors exist. cheaper labor has not been an advantage of China for a long time now

I spent many years welding pipe and you cut alot of tig wire doing that. 316L 5/32" stainless tig wire will let you know if your side cutters are any good. The best pair I ever had as far as cutting with less hand applied pressure were a pair of Heavy Duty Craftsman. They lasted about 6 years until one of the jaws broke off and by then Craftsman no longer made them the same. What they called their new heavy duty side cutters were trash and I went back to my old Klein J-2000s, which is what the majority of tig welders use.
