Our forged steel stretcher pliers now have a curved head bolt screwed into the end. This can be adjusted by the user to give the ideal pivot for each stretcher bar profile.

PROFESSIONAL Stretcher Pliers

These fit in your hand very comfortably. Jaws spring open when you release. The double fulcrum hinge multiplies the force of your hand to the jaws, so the canvas doesn't slip as you try to tack it down.

Jaws are angled toward the front edge, leaving a gap at the back of the jaws for excess fabric. The unique pivot is what really gives you the power to help you pull it really tight.

Pro 75mm / 3" Side Tack - use when the canvas is tacked to the side of the stretcher.
