We are personally inclined towards tekton wide jaw plumbing plier, it is not so pricy, but it overachieves its purpose and outstanding in important aspects. A nut and bolt fastener allows operating tension to be adjusted if needed and, unlike permanent rivets, can be used to re-calibrate and maintain performance throughout service life. It reduces bending and twisting for a superior grip. It has angled pipe-wrench style teeth for a good grip, and an adjustable nut and bolt fastener to adjust the tension. It works well for turning off the gas in an emergency or other heavy duty bolts.
The pivot pin has a spring washer and an adjustable but very secure nut. The handle has rounded edges and is comfortable to hold, the grip is secure and has never slipped on the handle. It is perfect for pulling faucets in a tight spot.
