The jaw members are assembled with the first and second jaw members in a required orientation such that the planar sealing surface () of the first jaw member () is at a predetermined orientation with respect to the sealing surface () of the second jaw member (). The first and second jaw members are held in the required orientation, and pivot holes (&) are formed in the first and second jaw members while they are held in the required orientation. When a pivot pin is inserted through the pivot holes in the first and second jaw members, the first and second jaw members are assembled into a pair of jaws.
