Abstract:
Disclosed is a tool, such as pliers, having reduced spacing between teeth extending into a slot on a handle of the tool. This provides improved adjustability and a larger capacity to hold work pieces. The design, spacing of the adjustment teeth and length of the slot provide more adjustment positions and allow more teeth to be engaged at all positions. In an example, the teeth are spaced at about 0.066 inches and the tool has a maximum jaw opening of about 2.28 inches.

Claim (Index 1):
A tool comprising:\n a first portion having a first jaw portion and a first handle portion; a first slot disposed in the first portion between the first jaw portion and the first handle portion; a second portion having a second jaw portion and a second handle portion, the second portion is disposed in the first slot with the second jaw portion proximal to the first jaw portion; an elongated slot disposed in the second portion between the second jaw portion and the second handle portion; and teeth disposed on the second portion and extending into the elongated slot; wherein the teeth are spaced with respect to one another at about 0.066 inches.
