Take your rigging to the next level with the Xuron 496SS, the stainless steel version of the industry-favorite split ring tool. Specifically upgraded for saltwater environments and high-humidity conditions, these pliers offer the same legendary precision as the original but with the added benefit of superior corrosion resistance.
The 496SS is designed to handle the smallest split rings (down to size #00) without deforming them, yet it remains strong enough for heavy-duty saltwater hardware. The curved catch tip effortlessly wedges into the ring and holds it open, leaving your other hand free to quickly swap out hooks or lures.
