Abstract
The invention relates to a pair of hand-operated pliers (), in particular pressing pliers, with jaws () and hand levers (), wherein the jaws () are pivotable around a preferably common rotational axis (x). Furthermore, one hand lever () is connected by a joint to one of the jaws (), and a pressure support is located between the hand levers () for the formation of a toggle (K). In order to further improve a tool of this type, particularly with respect to the design of the pressure support, it is proposed that the pressure support consist of a support roller () arranged on one hand lever (), and of a curved section () which is attached to the other hand lever () and which works together with the support roller ().
