## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the width of the jaw plates?**
A: 3 inches

**Q: What's widest plates open to?**
A: Plates open at the end to widest at 2". The plates are parallel at 3/4".

**Q: Is the product made in USA?**
A: Nope, Taiwan.  The packaging clearly shows this, and the country or origin is a lie.  Irwin sold out the Vise-Grip brand in 2008 and moved all production to East Asia.  The quality is terrible now.  If you want a quality tool I'd recommend Channellock (USA) or Knipex (Germany).

**Q: Do these close flat? It looks like just the front edge touches the sheet metal.**
A: No they don't close flat.  The front edge "touch" first.
