• The standard Gem-Set features jaws tapered to finer tips for easy access to small stones. It’s preferred by jewelers with smaller hands because it’s lighter and easier to maneuver.
• Adjustable jaws easily move to accommodate any setting size, parallel action assures even pressure on opposing prongs and lessens the chance;of chipping the stone during the setting operation.
• Lever-action handle adds grip strength, improves control and limits the jaw movement that can cause prong over-tightening. The 10:1 lever ratio puts power where it's needed.
• Forged, finish-hardened tool steel ends, steel knurled adjustment knob and mechanism, corrosion-resistant coated aluminum body.
