Machine Mart has rolled out a five piece pliers set that’s catching the eye of home mechanics on a budget. The Clarke PRO97 comes in at just £23.98, which works out to less than £5 per tool, and it’s already picked up an Auto Express Recommended badge back in May 2024.
So what do you get for your money? The set includes a 179mm combination pliers, 152mm long nose pliers, a 254mm water pump pliers, 152mm side cutters, and a pair of 152mm stripping pliers. Every tool has red insulated handle grips, and the whole lot zips up into a case so nothing goes missing in the bottom of a toolbox.
For anyone who’s been limping along with a couple of worn out pliers that have lost their grip, this set covers most of what a typical garage job requires. People shopping at Machine Mart have left good feedback too. One buyer named Marc called it a “great bit of kit and good value for money,” while another named Chris said it’s a “great set, comes in handy case, good value.”
It’s available both in Machine Mart’s UK stores and through their website, alongside other bike related gear the retailer stocks. For riders or home mechanics who keep putting off buying proper pliers, this set lands at a price point that makes the decision pretty easy. Five tools, one case, under £24 total.
