Handiman / S&J 990691 Canvas Snap Pliers Marine Tool

The Handiman 990691 Canvas Pliers are designed for marine and outdoor applications where heavy-duty snap fasteners need to be installed or repaired. This tool is ideal for working with boat covers, canvas canopies, tarps, awnings, and other thick exterior coverings commonly found on marine vessels and RVs.

Key Features:

• Adjustable plier design provides higher leverage than traditional die-and-peg snap tools
• Vice grip method allows for excellent leverage when crimping snap fastener sections together
• No-slip traction grip handles for safety and comfort during extended use
• Lightweight construction at approximately 1 lb for easy handling and portability
• Enables snap installation without removing canvas from the application
• Compatible with marine-quality snap rings and fasteners

These canvas pliers utilize an adjustable design that makes setting snaps more efficient than fixed snap-setting tools. Simply select the desired snap location, cut pilot holes, and clamp the fastener in place while the canvas remains attached to the frame or application. The tool's compact size and light weight make it convenient for onboard repairs and maintenance.
